Lot 177: $11,000 Private Collection, New Jersey, 1982-2021 Estate of the above, 2021. Raised in an orthodox Jewish family in Russia, Mane-Katz was born in the Ukraine and became an early 20th-century artist, known especially for portraits and paintings with Jewish themes. From childhood, he had been influenced by stories of Jewish mysticism, which was reflected in his paintings. He had a peripatetic life between Russia, France, Israel, and America. He first studied art in Kiev at the Beaux Arts Academy, and in 1913, went to Paris where he associated with Chaim Soutine and Marc Chagall and continued his art studies there at the Beaux Arts Academy. During World War I, he tried to join the Foreign Legion but was rejected because he was too short. He went back in Russia again, this time joining the Soviet Revolution but rejected the cause because he was so horrified by Josef Stalin. He worked briefly for the Russian ballets, and in 1921, he returned to Paris where in 1927 he took French citizenship. For the next twelve years, he traveled widely, showing his art work and doing many paintings. In 1939, as World War II was breaking out, he was drafted by the French and then was taken prisoner by the Germans. He escaped and went to the United States and remained there until 1945, exhibiting his paintings at Katia Granoff Gallery and Wildenstein Gallery. After the war, he returned to Paris where he had exhibited in the Salons. In Paris to the end of his career, he worked happily, painting hundreds of portraits of rabbis...

Coreen Mary Spellman (1905 - 1978) Dallas Artist Image Size: 20 x 14 Frame Size: 25 x 19 Medium: Oil Bio: Exhibited in the Ninth Annual Student Art show at the State University of Iowa Coreen Spellman Biography Coreen Mary Spellman (1905 - 1978) Coreen Mary Spellman was a fine-art teacher as well as a painter, designer, illustrator, lithographer and muralist. Many of her paintings depicted human-made structures and industrial landscapes in a style combining realism, precisionism and abstraction. Often the central subject such as in "Railroad Signal" was the only suggestion of humanity against a backdrop of stark Texas landscape. Of her painting these isolated subjects she said: "I enjoy taking some rather obscure or unimportant subject or theme and making something fine and important out of it . . . It always gives me great pleasure to discover something which has been passed over as being inadequate material". (Trenton 199) Spellman was born in Forney, Texas in 1905. At an early age she moved to Dallas, Texas and studied under Vivian Aunspaugh before attending the College of Industrial Arts (Texas Woman's University). She received a Master of Arts degree from Columbia University and a Masters Degree from the University of Iowa, Iowa City in 1942. In addition, Spellman received a Carnegie Scholarship for study at Harvard University, followed by studies with Kenneth Hayes Miller, Vaclav Vytlacil, and Charles Wheeler...

Figures on Beach Shoreline Painting of Cliffs in Ireland Oil on Canvas 1990's, by Irish Artist Darren Paul. Art measures 17 x 13 inches Frame measures 24 x 19 inches This atmospheric coastal landscape captures the rugged beauty of Fair Head, one of Northern Ireland's most iconic natural landmarks. Painted with expressive brushwork and a sensitive understanding of light, the composition draws the viewer across the golden sands and shimmering waters towards the dramatic basalt cliffs that rise majestically above the sea. Soft coastal light filters through sweeping cloud formations, creating a sense of movement and changing weather that is synonymous with the wild Antrim coastline. In the foreground, figures strolling along the beach provide both scale and a human connection to the vast landscape, while the distant white cottages nestle beneath the imposing cliffs, emphasising the harmony between nature and rural life. The artist's confident handling of colour and texture evokes the fresh sea air, rolling surf and expansive horizons of this celebrated Irish location. Rich earth tones contrast beautifully with cool blues and silvery greys, creating a balanced and inviting composition that captures both the grandeur and tranquillity of the scene. A timeless portrayal of one of Ireland's most spectacular coastal settings, this painting will appeal to collectors of Irish landscapes, maritime subjects and works that celebrate the enduring beauty of the natural world. Darren Paul was born in Belfast in 1944. From childhood, Darren had an affinity for art. He attended art classes under the tutorage of Desmond Kinney...
