• INDIAN WHY STORIES 1ST ED. LINDERMAN
  INDIAN WHY STORIES 1ST ED. LINDERMAN C.M. RUSSELLThis is a Scarce First Edition of "Indian Why Stories: Sparks from War Eagle's Lodge-Fire" written by Frank Linderman and illustrated by Charles Russell and published in 1915. The book is comprised of numerous Native American Indian folklore stories including "Why the Chipmunk's Back is Striped", "Why Blackfeet Never Kill Mice", "Why the Indians whip the Buffalo-Berries from the Bushes" and many more. The book is a renowned collaboration between Linderman and Russell who were good friends. Frank Bird Linderman was a Montana writer, politician, Native American ally and ethnographer. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, he went West as a young man and became enamored of life on the Montana frontier. While working as a trapper for several years, he lived with the Salish and Blackfeet tribes, learning their cultures. He later became an advocate for them and for other Northern Plains Indians. He wrote about their cultures and worked to help them survive pressure from European Americans. For instance, he supported establishment of the Rocky Boy Indian reservation in Montana for landless Ojibwe (Chippewa) and Cree, and continued as an advocate for Native Americans to his death. Charles Marion Russell, also known as C. M. Russell, Charlie Russell, and "Kid" Russell, was an American artist of the American Old West, known as "the cowboy artist", a prolific artist who created more than 2,000 paintings of cowboys, Native Americans, and landscapes set in the western United States and in Alberta, Canada, in addition to bronze sculptures.

• EXHIBITED 20TH C. WILLOUGHBY PHOTO OF
  EXHIBITED 20TH C. WILLOUGHBY PHOTO OF ELISABETH FRINK**Originally Listed At $2500** Bob Willoughby (American, 1927-2009). "Elisabeth Frink, Sculptress in her Chelsea, London Studio - 1956" - silver gelatin print, printed January 12, 1978, signed, numbered & annotated. An important photograph of British sculptor Elisabeth Frink in her Chelsea, London studio by American photographer Bob Willoughby. In the photo, Frink stands in profile, turned to her right. On the wall behind her are several sketches (presumably studies for sculptures), a wonderful painted handprint, a rendering of a mesmerizing visage staring out at the viewer as well as a postcard depicting a trio of Renaissance busts directly behind Frink's head, a collection of hanging frames at the center, and a large-scale painting of Christ. Size: 12" L x 16" W (30.5 cm x 40.6 cm) Elisabeth Frink and Bob Willoughby were good friends in the 1950s and admired one another's work. Not only did Bob take this special photograph of Elisabeth, he also asked her to create a bronze bust of his likeness finding Frink's work to be "powerful and important." Frink's bronze bust of Willoughby is also available for sale. Bob Willoughby has been described as "…the man who virtually invented the photojournalistic motion picture still" by Popular Photography. A pioneer of 20th century photography, he is best known for being a "link between the filmmakers and major magazines of the time, such as Life and Look" (source: The Bob Willoughby Photo Archive website). Willoughby studied film at the University of Southern California (USC) Cinema Department and design at the Kahn Institute of Art. He also apprenticed with famous Hollywood photographers such as Paul Hesse, Glenn Embree, and Wallace Seawell. Willoughby documented a golden era of cinema, shooting on the sets of A Star is Born, The Graduate, Rosemary's Baby, My Fair Lady, and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? to name a few. In addition to capturing such Hollywood legends like Judy Garland, Elizabeth Taylor, and Audrey Hepburn, Willoughby had an immense appreciation for jazz and created a wonderful series portraying jazz musicians. Furthermore, his honors were numerous and his work has been collected internationally by esteemed museums and institutions. According to the Bob Willoughby Photo Archive, "The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Hollywood honored Willoughby with a major retrospective exhibition of his work. He was awarded the Lucie Award for Outstanding Achievement in Still Photography in New York in 2004. His photographs are in the permanent collections of The National Portrait Gallery, Washington, D.C.; The National Portrait Gallery, London; The National Museum of Photography, Bradford, UK; Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Paris; The Museum of Modern Art, Film Department, New York; The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Beverly Hills; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Tate Gallery Collection, London; Theatre de la Photographie et de l'Image, Nice; and Musee de la Photographie, Charleroi, Belgium." Dame Elisabeth Frink discovered her love for Renaissance sculpture as a teenager when, being the daughter of an army officer, she lived in Trieste, Italy and traveled to Venice. She attended the Guildford School of Art and the Chelsea School of Art, studying under John Berger (1926-2017), Ceri Richards (1903-1971), and Julian Trevelyan (1910-1988). Frink's work came to be associated with artists Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003) and Kenneth Armitage (1916-2002) who were known as The Geometry of Fear sculptors (a term coined by critic Herbert Read). "These supposedly angst-ridden artists bridged the gap between 1930s geometric idealism and post-war existentialism." Frink associated with contemporary artists Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, John Minton, and Michael Andrews in London pubs during the evenings and "held wild parties in her shared flat in Chelsea" (source: Christie's "Artist guide: Elisabeth Frink" - 14 September 2020). Frink's sculptures are on view throughout the world. These include her famous "Warhorse" at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire as well as "Eagle" which was commissioned as a lectern for Coventry Cathedral. Please note: According to the Bob Willoughby Photo Archive, only three of these photographs have ever been printed. The other two are in the permanent collections of The Tate Gallery in London and the National Portrait Gallery in London. In addition, this photograph has been shown in numerous gallery exhibitions over the years.

• ROBERT LOUIS THOMPSON, (AMERICAN, 1937-1966),
  ROBERT LOUIS THOMPSON, (AMERICAN, 1937-1966), THE RAISING OF LAZARUS, 1965, OIL ON CANVAS, 9 X 12 IN.ROBERT LOUIS THOMPSON (American, 1937-1966) The Raising of Lazarus 1965, oil on canvas signed, dated, and titled B Thompson '65 / Raising of Lazarus / [indistinct], verso 9 x 12 in. 1965, oil on canvas Dimensions: 9 x 12 in. Provenance: The Estate of Drs. Dorothy and Norman Zinberg. Bob Thompson's short but brilliant eight year career was bookended by summers in Provincetown, Massachusetts, first as an art student in 1958, then,Âin 1965, after a meteoric rise in the New York art scene, as an established artist. In the intervening years Thompson received numerous grants to study and work in Europe, settling at times in France, Spain, and Italy, studying and reimaging the Old Masters thatÂsurrounded him. He rejected abstract expressionism, instead filling his canvases with tightly composed, spontaneously and brightly colored figures, a style of figurative abstraction complete with its own lexicon of symbols. His love of jazz, of poetry, of movement, and of color informed his reinterpretation of the Renaissance and Baroque themes he so intensely respondedÂto. As his friend and fellow student in Provincetown Emilio Cruz wrote, "...it was the time when all young men dripped and splashed, loved Kline and DeKooning, sang praises to Jackson Pollock. Bob didn't do it. Bob loved Ray Charles, Miles Davis, and Piero Della Francesca, a strange toast salad. But it all tasted good because like Bob the ingredients were fresh, vibrating with life and filled his world; he overflowed with color." Like Thompson himself, the present work - painted just one year before Thompson's untimely death at age 28 - overflows with color. Reds and yellows and blues and greens come togetherÂin a compositionÂthat deftly deconstructs and reimagines a classical narrative, in the process highlighting the artist's singularÂvision and distinctive style. During the Black Lives Matter protests in Boston this June, our gallery door was spray painted with the message "#BLM DO BETTER, ART WORLD!" With the consignment of thirteen works by Black artists to The Fall Auction, we have identified an opportunity to do so.
