Provenance: Estate of the artist.

BIO
Arthur Rosenman Ross was a key figure in automotive design at General Motors during America's "Golden Age" of auto design, the 1930's through the 1950s.
He attended the Art Institute of Chicago from age 17, exhibiting a special interest for automotive renderings and the female figure.
In 1934, he changed his name from Rosenman to Ross, fearing his Jewish ancestry could prejudice his career prospects. At age 20, he turned down job offers from MGM Studios in Hollywood
and Duesenberg to work at General Motors alongside the Legendary Harley Earl in 1935.
He was hand picked by Mr. Earl and assigned to GM's War and Camouflage Division in 1937 through WW2.
It was during this pivotal period in which he executed some extraordinary military aircraft artworks, likely used between GM and America's military aeronautics companies in design preparation for WW2. General Motors played an important role in helping America's aircraft manufacturers preceding and during the war.
Just after the war in 1945, Mr. Ross was rewarded by GM, being made Chief Designer of Cadillac, then two years later becoming Chief at Oldsmobile until his retirement in 1959.
He was in large part responsible for some of GM's classic Cadillac designs such as the Cadillac Sixty Special, Fleetwood, LaSalle and GM's first concept car, the extraordinary Buick Y-Job.
Mr. Ross was an exceptionally charismatic and vivacious man who quite by chance, befriended His idol, Salvador Dali at GM in 1955.
They talked about art, cars and girls late into the evening, according to his son, Carter Ross.
He had a gift in rendering the erotic arts...

BIO
Hugó Scheiber was born in Budapest in 1873. At the age of eight, he moved with his family from Budapest to Vienna.
In 1898, to help support his family after they had returned to Budapest. He started working during the day, attending painting classes at the Commercial Art School in the evening. In 1900, he completed his studies.
Scheiber showed an early interest in German Expressionism and Futurism. In 1915 he met Marinetti, who invited him to join the Futurist movement. Because Scheiber's paintings conflicted with academic style of the Hungarian art establishment, his work was virtually ignored in his own country. In 1919, he and his friend Béla Kádár held an exhibition organized by Hévesy in Vienna, which was a great success, so much so that the Budapest Art Museum purchased two of his drawings.
In 1920, Scheiber returned to Vienna. A turning point in his career came in 1921 when Herwarth Walden, founder of Germany's leading avant-garde periodical, Der Sturm...

Edward Henry Corbould, Westminster Abbey, The Wedding
By Edward Henry Corbould
Located in Cheltenham, GB
This mid-19th-century watercolour by British artist Edward Henry Corbould (1815-1905) illustrates the impressive wedding of his good friend Henry Weigall (1829-1925) and Lady Rose Fane (1834-1921). It was presented to Weigall and remained with the family for generations.
On the 15th of August 1866, Westminster Abbey was brimming with anticipation ahead of this notable event. Weigall, a portrait artist, was respected within elite circles having produced numerous portraits for the Royal Family. While his bride, Rose, was the daughter of John Fane, 11th Earl of Westmorland, and Priscilla Anne Wellesley-Pole, the niece of the Duke of Wellington.
A reporter described the proceedings:
“The marriage of Lady Rose Fane, only sister of the Earl of Westmorland, to Mr Henry Weigall, the eminent portrait painter, took place at St Peter’s, Westminster, on Wednesday in the presence of a large and fashionable congregation. Lady Rose left the residence of her mother, the Dowager Countess, accompanied by her noble brother, and passed into the Abbey attended by the following young ladies as bridesmaids, wearing white dresses trimmed with green - Lord Westmorland’s colours on the turf - Lady Grace Fane, Miss Thomson, Miss Alice Weigall, Miss Lowther, Miss Ada Ibbetson, and Miss Alice Bagot.
The bride’s dress was of white satin, trimmed with Brussels lace...

Original pen and ink illustrations for Charles Dickens 'The Pickwick Papers'
By Hablot Knight Browne
Located in Woodbury, CT
English illustrator, etcher and painter. Best known as the illustrator of the novels of Charles Dickens, under the pen-name Phiz.
Browne had little formal training as an artist. He sporadically attended the St Martin’s Lane Academy life-class and was apprenticed to the line-engraver William Finden (1787-1852). In 1834 he cancelled his indenture and established an illustrators’ workshop with fellow apprentice Robert Young, producing etchings and watercolours in preference to the more laborious line-engravings. In the spring of 1836, he met Charles Dickens who was then looking for someone to illustrate The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club which was originally issued in monthly parts. Robert Seymour (1798-1836) provided the illustrations for the first two instalments before his suicide. Robert Buss (1804-1875) illustrated the third instalment, but his work was not liked by Dickens and the remaining instalments were illustrated by Browne. Browne initially signed himself ‘Nemo’ and then ‘Phiz’ (a depicter of physiognomies) to harmonize with Dickens’s ‘Boz’. He went on to illustrate most of Dickens’ novels.
Browne’s long career as an illustrator, including work for Charles Lever...
