- IMPORTANT PINTAIL DRAKEAndrew A. Tull
IMPORTANT PINTAIL DRAKEAndrew A. Tull (1840-1915)
Philadelphia, PA, c. 1856
17 1/2 in. long
An exceptional Delaware River pintail drake, this example is a regional archetype quite distinct in form from other celebrated and later Delaware River pintail peers. This decoy is debuting in the modern decoy market after having resided in the Alberta Wingate family of Philadelphia for generations. Dating back to 1856 or prior, it is one of the earliest Philadelphia decoys known to exist.
The maker of this decoy has been inaccurately identified as John Blair by Henry Fleckenstein Jr. in his "New Jersey Decoys" book and by Harrison Huster and Doug Knight in "Floating Sculpture."
However, early decoy historians Bob White and Hal Sorenson were on the right trail when they discussed a closely related A Tull pintail in the 1977 "Decoy Collector's Guide," captioning, “This beautiful pintail drake from the lower Delaware River has “1856” stamped in the weight. It would well be a fore-runner to the “Blair” style.” Fellow Delaware River decoy legend Kenneth Gosner in 1985 gravitated towards White and Sorenson’s assessment when discussing an “A Tull” branded pintail in his Delaware River decoy treatise, writing, “obviously related to the Blair tradition and possibly predating the classic style.” Research by noted Delaware River decoy collector Jeff Martinides follows White, Sorenson, and Gosner’s beliefs as he points out that John Blair does not appear to land on the shores of America until 1865 — almost a decade after an “A Tull 1856” decoy was stamped.
In 2014 Russ Allen lifted the veil on the Tull mystery when he researched a pattern-making family from the Kensington section of Philadelphia. Andrew J. Tull was the son of John P. Tull. The 1860 U.S. Federal Census Report lists Andrew as following in his father’s footsteps as a pattern designer. Tull’s occupation as a pattern maker explains the beautiful lines and exacting construction of this decoy.
Though research on Andrew Tull is still ongoing, we know that on January 18th, 1863, Andrew married Emma Mathews, also of Philadelphia. Shortly thereafter, on April 1, 1864, at the age of twenty-two, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served aboard the vessel "Chicopee" as a firefighter.
In reviewing this Tull pintail lot, its sleek, hollow body draws to a long and sharply pointed tail which resolves with crisp chines on both the top and sides. The raised neck seat secures a slightly forward-reaching head with refined bill and eye groove carving. The underside is fitted with two small lead weights, one with the region's classic chamfers. The body is finished with exceptional and dynamic feather painting with a tight craquelure patina. The lively and well-executed feather painting technique stands out in a city known for its fine plumage representations. The paint on this bird is by far the best found on any Tull.
L-shaped cut nails revealed in this decoy circa 1860 are rare, and typically only found in the finest and earliest decoys, including the dove-tailed decoys and Osgood geese.
Exceptional early gunning paint with even wear and a minor chip under the bill tip.

- MC ESCHER "FLATWORMS" (1959 LITHOGRAPH,
MC ESCHER "FLATWORMS" (1959 LITHOGRAPH, PENCIL-SIGNED)M.C. Escher (Maurits Cornelis)
(Netherlands, 1898-1972)
Flat Worms , 1959
Lithograph on cream paper
13 1/4" x 16 1/4"
Pencil-signed and numbered (#17/45) to the bottom left corner. Presented behind glass in a walnut frame that measures 20 1/2" x 23 1/2".
With Flatworms , Escher created a mathematically precise labyrinth of geometric building blocks inhabited by swimming planaria. "Escher discovered that tetrahedrons and octahedrons can be stacked in certain combinations in such a way that they totally fill up a space. In the lithograph Flatworms he plays with these building blocks. The resulting structure has mainly angles of 60 degrees, which produces an extremely odd architecture." (F.H. Bool, M.C. Escher: His Life and Complete Graphic Work ) This use of complex polyhedrons as a basis for creating fantasy environments can be seen in other renowned Escher works, including Double Planetoid (1949) and Tetrahedral Planetoid (1954).
Of his Flatworms , the artist commented: "Bricks are usually rectangular, because in that way they are most suitable for building the vertical walls of our houses. But anyone who has anything to do with the stacking of stones of a non-cubic type will be well aware of other possibilities. For instance, one can make use of tetrahedrons alternating with octahedrons. Such are the basic shapes which are used to raise the building illustrated here. They are not practicable for human beings to build with, because they make neither vertical walls nor horizontal floors. However, when this building is filled with water, flat worms can swim in it." (M.C. Escher , The Graphic Work )

M.C. Escher: The Graphic Work (1989/ 2001), Taschen (Koln, Germany), 62.
Provenance : A private Kansas City area collection, thence from the collection of noted biologist James V. McConnell, thence directly from the artist. McConnell selected this work during a visit to Escher's studio because of his own biological research with planaria; so associated was McConnell with flatworms as a model organism that he founded and published the Worm Runner's Digest, a long-running scientific journal with a distinctly satirical bent. McConnell willed the work to the present owner upon his death in 1990.
Condition
Very good condition, a rich impression well preserved in a custom archival frame. The sheet is beautifully flat and clean, noting only one very minor flattened crease (1/4") at the right margin, barely visible without raking light. The work has not been removed from the frame.
