Vintage Hockney poster Kammer 1981 Celia in a Black Dress and Red Stockings

1981

About the Item

Printed for Galerie Kammer’s 1981 David Hockney exhibition “Drawings and Prints”, this beautiful poster reproduces Hockney’s drawing Celia in a Black Dress and Red Stockings 1973. Fashion and textile designer Celia Birtwell is sitting, curled up on a green chair, staring dreamily ahead. She is wearing a knee-length dress, red stockings, strappy sandals, and sporting her usual spray of wavy hair. She wears a hint of purple eyeshadow, and at the hem of her dress is a colorful pattern—perhaps of her own design. With hands in her lap, she is frozen in a moment of introspective leisure. Shaded in vibrant scarlet red, yellow, green, and blue, Hockney's subject achieves a pastel luminescence. Text reads: David Hockney Zeichnungen Und Grafik Galerie Kammer Böhmersweg 9 Hamburg 13 45 94 27 Oktober-November 1981 Poster measures 35.5 x 25.25 in. Hockney has been an avid portraitist throughout his career, drawing and painting subjects ranging from his mother and Celia Birtwell, his muse over many decades, to art dealer Larry Gagosian and artist John Baldessari. He often depicted his models seated relaxed in a chair, as is seen here. Condition: Light aging of the paper tone, minor discoloration, lower left corner creased as documented.

Old Violinist - Late 19th Century Figurative Lithograph
By John George Brown
Located in Soquel, CA
Finely detailed late 19th century chromo-lithograph portrait of a violinist street musician by John George Brown (British, 1831-1913). Many of Brown’s paintings were reproduced in lithography (Chromo-lithograpy), as is the case with the one offered here. Presented in a rustic antique Oak wood frame with giltwood fillet. Image, 15.63"H x 10.63"W. John George Brown was a British citizen and an American painter born in Durham, England. His parents apprenticed him to the career of glass worker at the age of fourteen, in an attempt to dissuade him from pursuing painting. He studied nights at the School of Design in Newcastle-on-Tyne while working as a glass cutter there between 1849 and 1852, and evenings at the Trustees Academy in Edinburgh while working at the Holyrood Glass Works between 1852 ad 1853. After moving to New York City in 1853, he studied with Thomas Seir Cummings at the National Academy of Design where he was elected a National Academician in 1861. Brown was the Academy’s vice-president from 1899 to 1904. Around 1855, he worked for the owner of the Brooklyn Glass Company, and later he married the daughter of his employer. His father-in-law encouraged his artistic abilities, supporting him financially, letting Brown pursue painting full-time. In 1866, he became one of the charter members of the Water-Color Society, of which he was president from 1887 to 1904. Brown became famous for his depictions of street urchins found of the streets of New York (bootblacks, street musicians, posy sellers, newsboys, etc.). Brown’s art is best characterized as British genre painting...
