Downtown Los Angeles, CA, USA, March 4, 2022 -- Andrew Jones Auctions will offer a strong selection of fine art, along with antiques and design from antiquity through the 21st century, in an online-only signature Design for the Home and Garden auction scheduled for Sunday, March 27th, beginning promptly at 10 am Pacific time. Nearly 300 top-quality lots will be offered to the highest bidder.
Significant and varied private collections and estates will provide a rich selection for discerning buyers. A private Hancock Park collection features an extraordinary suite of seven epic allegorical paintings by the acclaimed French trained American muralist Edwin Howland Blashfield (N.Y., 1848-1946) including Hospitality, circa 1915, expected to hit $8,000-$12,000.
Blashfield's career took off with his work in the dome of the Manufacturer's and Liberal Arts building at the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago, which elicited commissions from the likes of W. K. Vanderbilt and G. W. C. Drexel for their personal residences. Blashfield is best known for painting the murals on the dome of the Library of Congress Main Reading Room in Washington, D.C.
The Hancock Park collection embodies an Old-World baronial aesthetic with Renaissance and Baroque furniture and objects highlighted by a remarkable Spanish Renaissance oak table casket, late 15th/16th century (est. $1,500-$2,000), antique carpets, and fine silver led by an Irish George III sterling silver two-handled covered cup by James Scott, Dublin, 1809 (est. $2,000-$3,000).
The collection also includes a Gothic altar tryptich depicting St. Andrew, St. Agnes & St. Joseph (est. $10,000-20,000) and engravings after Simone Cantarini and Albrecht Dürer, including the woodcut The Holy Trinity (The Throne of Grace), circa 1511 (est. $8,000-$12,000), as well as Rembrandt and Martin Schongauer. Wonderful decorative arts will also cross the auction block.
Additional highlights from the other end of the artistic spectrum include a dramatic marine scene titled Shipping off Gibraltar, attributed to Thomas Buttersworth (est. $3,000-$5,000) and Henri Manguin's Petite dormeuse en chemise blanche, dated 1918 (est. $15,000-$25,000), from the collection of the late actor and avid art collector and aficionado Peter Falk, of Columbo fame.
An early example of Pablo Picasso's work is in the medium of ceramic Joueur de diaule (A.R. 1) conceived in 1947 and executed in an edition of 200 (est. $7,000-$9,000) from the estate of Lou Ann Zellers, Pacific Palisades, and from another collection an abstract tattistone sculpture by Louise Nevelson (est. $2,000-$3,000) as well as works by Richard Buckner, Laura Coombs Hills, Francis Swaine, plus a landscape attributed to Gustave Loiseau (est. $20,000-$30,000).
Also offered will be a charming George I/II burr elm 'mulberry' serpentine chest of drawer from the second quarter 18th century (est. $10,000-$15,000) from the collection of John H. Ford IV, Los Angeles. The term 'mulberry' described stained burr timbers meant to emulate tortoiseshell.
From a Beverly Hills collector is a magnificent early 19th century Regency giltwood convex girandole mirror (est. $3,000-$5,000). The collection of an English gentleman offers a Louis XVI style walnut and black lacquer side cabinet by Henri Dasson, 1884 (est. $2,000-$3,000) and a Louis XV/XVI transitional style black lacquer side cabinet by François Linke (est. $3,000-$5,000).
