At Degas death in 1917 more than 150 examples of sculpture were found in his studio, most were wax, clay or plaster. In 1918 the heirs authorized a series of additions of bronzes to be made from 72 of the small figures. They were cast and executed by the Paris foundry of A.A. Hebrard Et Cie. The casts were numbered 1-73, and lettered a-t indicating a limited edition of 20 pieces with the “A” being the first cast. The first series of bronzes was available for exhibition in Paris in May of 1921. That first series was bought by Louisine Havemeyer and exhibited in New York in 1922. The fourth set (D) was purchased as a complete set by Walter Halvorsen in London prior to 1929. Walter Halvorsen was a Norwegian art dealer with offices in London and New York city. Halvorsen’s complete set (edition D) is purchased by Justin Thannhauser of New York and Berlin. Justin K. Thannhauser (1892-1976) was the son of Heinrich Thannhauser (1859-1935). Justin opened galleries in Munich, Lucerne and Berlin and then moved to New York in 1940. In 1918 Justin married Kathe Levi(Y)(1894-1960), she later tragically died and he remarried his second wife Hilde in 1962. In 1963 Justin gave a significant portion of his art collection to the Guggenheim Foundation. It was in 1976 upon his death that the collection became part of the Guggenheim’s holdings as before then it was on long term loan. Ten additional works were received after Hilde’s death in 1991. Other bronze castings with the addition “D” can be found in the Guggenheim’s collection. This bronze has descended from Justin’s first wife through her family to our present consignor.

Oil on canvas Housed in an outstanding carved and gilt frame Signed lower left “Wilh. Kuhnert and inscribed on reverse of canvas “Wilhelm Khunert, Berlin, DerMenschen Frosser” NOTE: This painting was referenced in the archives amassed by Hans Jorg Werner, Wilhelm Kuhnert’s grandson and he was familiar with the story surrounding the painting. While Kuhnert was in Africa and a black-mane lion had attacked and killed a postman while the postman was covering his rounds on a bicycle. Kuhnert was probably the only white man in the area and certainly the only one with a rifle. He was asked by the local leaders to kill the lion. The locals showed him the way and the scene Kuhnert painted was what he saw just before he killed the lion with one shot to the head. Kuhnert used oversize canvases for works only he considered important. This is the only known example of his work that included a confirmed man-eater & a historical scene as depleted. One can only imagine what went through the mind of Wilhelm Kuhnert when he came upon the lion and transformed from artist to hunter in order to save himself and the villagers from this villain. SIZE: 45″ x 85″. Overall 56-1/2″ x 96-1/2″ PROVENANCE: An Italian gentleman to Russel Fink Gallery, VA to Michael Coleman, to present consignor. CONDITION: Very good. A condition report from Cumberland Art Conservation of Nashville TN accompanies the painting. At one time the painting was folded at the right edge of the lion’s paw vertically. It was conserved to its original width and the canvas was strip lined and mounted onto a custom built seven member expansion bolt stretcher. Inpainting was performed to the folded area and presently is in very good condition. 49375-1 (150,000-200,000) – Lot 1225

AUGUST BENZIGER (American 1867-1935) FULL LENGTH PORTRAIT OF A LADY IN A WHITE GOWN.
Oil on mahogany panel Unframed Unsigned, attribution based on handwritten note affixed to verso dated “2003” August Benziger was born in Switzerland and moved to New York city in 1852. He studied under William Bouguereau and Leon Bonnat at the Ecole Des Beaux Arts in Paris. Upon his return to the United States, Benziger became a sought after portrait painter of notable subjects including presidents, political figures, and financial tycoons. This portrait is executed in a novel style similar to that of American portrait painter Charles Naegele. Naegele was the first artist to leave the background of his mahogany panels in their natural state, forcing the artist to concentrate on keying up their flesh tones. Although this work is unsigned, it is possible that Benziger was influenced by Naegele’s exhibition at the Salmagundi Club in New York, or he acquired this work from Naegele and it was simply in his artist studio upon his death. SIZE: 20-1/2″ x 13″ PROVENANCE: By decent within the family of the artist August Benziger CONDITION: Surface grime, several minor surface scratches, otherwise very good 49079-1 (1,000-1,500) – Lot 1429

RARE PRESIDENT ANDREW JACKSON FIRST INAUGURAL MESSAGE DECEMBER 8, 1829 SILK BROADSIDE.
This large silk broadside measures about 30″ x 18-1/2″. It is not found in Sabin or Collins titled “PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE”. Prior to Andrew Jackson’s presidency, rarely had the common people been aroused by an active interest in politics. This message printed in text during the period was not uncommon, but this massive silk broadside is rare and tells of the process of the government putting new people in their places. Jackson facilitated the adoption of the principle of rotation in office, under which tenure was usually limited to 4 years, but terminated with lack of good behavior. This was in keeping with Jackson’s personal views as he looked upon politics as a very personal matter and he always believed his friends should be rewarded by public service and preference. “The recent demonstration of public sentiment inscribes, on the list of Executive duties, in characters too legible to be overlooked, the task of Reform; which will require, particularly, the correction of those abuses that have brought the Patronage of the Federal Government into conflict with the Freedom of Elections, and the counteraction of those causes which have disturbed the rightful course of appointment and have placed or continued power, in unfaithful or incompetent hands”. Accompanying this are three 19th century engravings of Andrew Jackson, 2 framed and one loose. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Good overall as framed, minor reductions, staining and soiling. Figural borders intact other than one small piece missing at top center as seen in photos. Frames measures 33″ x 21-1/2″. Engravings are very good overall as framed; loose engraving is heavily foxed and acid burned. 49055-166 (800-1,200) – Lot 2089

RARE AND POSSIBLY UNIQUE 19th CENTURY COLD WATER ARMY “TEMPERANCE” FLAG.
The Cold Water Army was an early American temperance movement started in the 1830s with it’s heyday in the 1840s. The movement seemed to play out by the time of the Civil War but the eagle motif on this flag sure appears to be Civil War with riband on eagle reading “UNION AND VICTORY”. Cold Water and temperance can be found in the press and even as late as a Thomas Nast cartoon from 1880. Though we can’t exactly date this flag, materials sure suggest circa 1870. This flag measures about 22″ on fly and 19″ on hoist attached to it’s original 41-1/2″ stick with slightly turned finial. The polished cotton body and hand-sewn silk ribbons making up trim and borders of newsprint paper panels are all materials available in this era. Hand-sewing threads appear to be 2- or 3-ply “S” twist reminiscent of the Civil War era, as is the 2-ply red twill wool strip with small squared tacks attaching flag to shaft. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall. This flag was obviously rolled for most of it’s life and is in remarkable condition considering the fragility of the silk ribbons and delicate hand stitches utilized. 49055-23 (1,200-1,800) – Lot 2103

It is noted, however, as by this May 1876 patent that Colorado acceptance was anticipated and most likely this hand sewn array of stars was also made for a Centennial celebration.

RARE 19TH CENTURY 13 STAR AMERICAN FLAG WITH RARE SNOWFLAKE CANTON OF 6 POINTED-STARS.
Flag is totally made of cotton, hand stitched with double applique 6-pointed stars in configuration 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2 which forms a “snowflake-like” device. There are several noted flags with similar configurations that date early in the 19th century, but this flag in our opinion is mid-19th century, possibly early Civil War 1861. Flag is displayed in a conservation aluminum skeletal pressure mounted frame most likely conserved by Fonda Thomsen as this fine mount is her trademark. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Flag has some light fading, but red is still vivid. There are numerous small holes caused by vermin as can be seen in photos. There are small reductions, especially along folded hoist where portions are unfolded giving an uneven look to top half of canton. This is a rare configuration which would present more aesthetically if backed with colored cloth to match material around holes. 49055-109 (6,000-8,000) – Lot 2106

26 STAR AMERICAN FLAG THOUGHT TO HAVE FLOWN OVER THE AMERICAN CONSULATE IN DUBLIN, IRELAND.
Flag measures 14′ 7″ x 9′. Bunting with painted white 6-1/2″stars. Flag is totally hand sewn with a 2″ cord-edged hoist made of linen with 3 large hand-whipped eyelets. The canton rests on red stripe which by tradition often denotes America being at war. The 26th star represents Michigan which was admitted as the 26th state on July 4, 1837. This flag was official until 1845, the year before the start of the Mexican War. There is a recent tag attached which states flag belongs to “James R. Arrott and flew over the American Consul in Dublin”. A quick internet search does find James Arrott as listed by the US Congressional record as a consul in Dublin in the 1850’s. No markings were seen on flag. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Overall good with excellent color, numerous reductions from insect damage that doesn’t affect aesthetics, hoist is 90% intact with numerous reductions, tears and openings. Flag will display well for anyone who has the space. There is a 1/2″ strip of Velcro sewn to edge where originally displayed. 49055-112 (1,500-2,500) – Lot 2108

ECLECTIC 19TH CENTURY AMERICAN FOLK ART FLAG.
This wonderful flag exhibits 22 gold stars on obverse, 22 red stars on reverse and a cut through patriotic American eagle with drooped wings, bearing a shield with 5 stripes in its breast, holding arrows and olive branch in opposite talons. Flag has irregular shaped and colored stripes utilizing textured fabrics that appear from the early to mid 19th century. There is a sewn rope hoist, hand sewn stars are of varying sizes and shapes averaging about 4″. Stars are attached with simple but tight tacking stitches, and we have never seen another textile quite like it. Ratio of hoist to fly is almost 4 to 1, which is most unusual and reminiscent of some known flags on mid-19th century commercial sailing ships. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Hoist measures about 46″ and fly measures about 140″. Flag is overall very good. Gold and red colors are still very good. Eagle has faded to earth tones with great patina and aesthetics as can be seen in photos.
