British, 1878-1961

Augustus Edwin John was a painter of portraits, figure compositions, landscapes and flowers. He was also a draughtsman, etcher and lithographer. John was born on January 4, 1878 in Tenby, Wales. He was the brother of the painter Gwen John. He studied at the Slade School of Art in 1894, won a Scholarship in 1896 and the Summer Composition Prize in 1898. John first visited Paris in 1900 and later traveled to Holland, Belgium and France. He was influenced by Rembrandt, El Greco and the Post-Impressionists. He began exhibiting at the New English Art Club in 1900 and became a member in 1903. He became a professor of painting at Liverpool University in 1901. He had his first one-man exhibition at the Carfax Gallery in 1903. John painted in Ireland, Dorset and Wales, where he camped with gypsies and worked with Innes and Derwent Lees in 1911. He has exhibited at the Chenil Galleries and Alpine Club Gallery.  In 1921, he was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy and elected a full R.A. in 1928. He was a member of the London Group in 1940. Augustus John was awarded the Order of Merit in 1942. He has traveled widely throughout Europe and paid several visits to the USA and Jamaica. He used to live in Dorset, London and later on in Hampshire. He has conducted several retrospective exhibitions of his drawings at the National Gallery in 1940, at Temple Newsam, Leeds in 1946, National Eisteddfod of Wales and Welsh and English tour in 1948. In later life, John wrote two volumes of autobiography, Chiaroscuro in 1952 and Finishing Touches in 1964. He died at his home at Fordingbridge, Hampshire on October 31, 1961.

Parmigiani Amica: An 18th Century Engraving and Etching by Strange After Mazzola
Located in Alamo, CA
This is an 18th century engraving and etching entitled "Parmigiani Amica" by Robert Strange after a painting by Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino, who lived during the Renaissance period. It was published in London in 1774. As the inscription states, the painting was in the collection of the King of Naples at the time the engraving was made. The engraving depicts a half-length portrait of a young woman, known as Parmigiani's Amica (meaning "female friend" in Italian). She is depicted wearing a simple but elegant dress with a low-cut neckline, which reveals her delicate features and graceful neck. Her hair is arranged in a simple yet stylish manner. She is turning to the right to look lovingly at her infant, which she is holding with her right arm. She is touching the baby's mouth with her left hand. The background of the engraving is plain and unadorned, allowing the viewer to focus entirely on the subject of the portrait. The result is a beautiful and timeless image that captures the essence of Renaissance portraiture. The engraving is printed on watermarked paper. The sheet measures 16.25" high and 12' wide. The sheet is adhered to paper in its upper corners and it has been removed from the paper in its lower corners. There is some mild discoloration and some wrinkling in the margins, including the lower inscription area, and a small dark spot in the upper margin, which may represent a drop of ink occuring at the time of printing. These issues do not involve the image, which is in very good condition. The print is held by several museums and institutions, including: The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, The British Museum in London, The Royal Museums of the UK, The British National Trust...
