Scottish Beach Dunes by John Bathgate, 1980's
Located in Kenilworth, IL
Oil on academy board view of Scottish seaside dunes and the water beyond.
Born in Scotland in 1949, John Bathgate grew up in the rolling Scottish Border country. His art education followed an apprenticeship style training with the artist and teacher Robert Fraser. By 1979 he had joined the “Lothian Group” of artists and had begun to exhibit in and around Edinburgh, along with establishing his first studio. He now lives in the north west of Skye, which looks out on Loch Bracadale, with views south to Rum and Canna, the Cuillins and west to MacLeods Tables. The quality of light here and the constantly changing weather provide all the inspiration for many of the paintings produced.
Scotland, circa 1980.
Condition: Fine original condition. Wear commensurate with age and use.
Materials: Oil, Academy Board
Dimensions: 18-1/2" W x 1" D x 14-1/2" H (overall)

Set of three American upholstered seat mahogany side chairs, 1800-1810
By Duncan Phyfe
Located in Kenilworth, IL
Set of three American mahogany upholstered seat side chairs on reeded sabre legs with flared feet. The London cabinetmakers book of this period describes a scroll back chair with a bell-shaped seat and sweeping Grecian front legs with a hollow below the cross banister. The description fits these chairs and identifies them as a popular model in New York, circa 1800-10. In these examples, the reeded upper rear leg posts frame a solid crest rail over a horizontal back rail & lower banister rail. The seat frames and corner blocks are tulip poplar with white pine medial brace and oak rear seat rail. Fragmented nailers were spliced with new poplar and mahogany surfaces were cleaned and finished in shellac. Seats have been reupholstered in a Scalamandre damask fabric...
