Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Cavalier King Charles "Thigley" French School (possibly Franck Burty Haviland) Lost wax bronze casting Circa 1910 5 7/8 x 9 x 3 1/4 A sophisticated bronze casting of a Cavalier King Charles spaniel made in lost wax casting (cire perdue) from the beginning of the 20th century by Valsuani Foundry. This an unusual bronze approached in its aesthetic that’s reminiscent of the work of great animal sculptors of the second half of the 19th century except in this presentation which is more avant-garde for the time with a much looser, more impressionistic execution. The patina is a superb bronze color, brown and slightly greenish, going in places towards a more antique green. The attitude of the dog is extremely well and sensitively rendered with the placement of material unlike the renderings of a bronze by Barye...

Title: Mid Century French Abstract Geometric Modernist Composition Signed: R Trameau (French School, Mid 20th Century) Medium: Gouache and acrylic on artist paper, unframed Size: 20 x 13.75 inches (height x width) Provenance: private collection Condition: Fair to good overall condition. Areas of paint loss and flaking throughout the surface, revealing underlying blue pigment. Edge wear and surface abrasions consistent with age. Structurally sound but would benefit from conservation. Description: A bold and architecturally structured mid century French abstract composition signed R Trameau. Executed in gouache or possibly acrylic on paper, the painting is constructed through sweeping curved bands of mustard yellow, olive green, teal and burnt umber intersecting with spherical geometric forms. The composition demonstrates clear Cubist and Constructivist influence, with layered arcs and structural colour blocking creating movement and spatial depth. The central circular motif anchors the composition, while the surrounding angular elements introduce rhythm and tension. Confident brushwork and visible directional strokes reinforce the dynamic modernist aesthetic. Areas of paint loss expose earlier blue pigment beneath, adding texture and a raw expressive quality typical of mid century studio experimentation. This work would appeal to collectors of French modernist abstraction, geometric mid century painting...
