Wyeth<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On Wednesday, March 12th, Bonham\u2019s Skinner hosted one of their American art sales, primarily featuring paintings and sculptures from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Among the lots available were works by Thomas Hart Benton and Milton Avery. However, the auction got things started with a bang as works by members of the Wyeth family crossed the block. There were ten works total by N.C. Wyeth, his son Andrew Wyeth, and grandson Jamie Wyeth. One, however, drew a great deal of attention. A charcoal drawing on paper called <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Island Funeral<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> measures an impressive 43 by 50.5 inches, showing a bird\u2019s-eye view of a small island upon which a small building, possibly a church, is hosting a gathering as seen by the small crowd of figures assembled just outside. More people are arriving on the island by boat. The work is one of several drawings and sketches made in preparation for <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/collections.brandywine.org\/internal\/media\/dispatcher\/30488\/resize%3Apreview;jsessionid=BD70482DA14744C6DC774B365913170C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wyeth\u2019s later painting of the same name<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, which has been at the Brandywine Museum of Art since 2017. <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">was inspired<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by Wyeth\u2019s time in Maine, where<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, in<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> 1935<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">he witnessed a parade of small boats filled with people on their way to the funeral of a local man named Rufus Teel.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Until then, Wyeth was primarily known as an illustrator and used the finished painting as the focal point of an exhibition to rebrand himself as a serious artist. The drawing offered at Bonhams was estimated to sell for no more than $35K. However, to a serious collector, it is an incredibly important work representing a major turning point in the artist\u2019s life. Several interested parties drove the final price up more than eleven times the high estimate, hammering at $400K (or $508.5K w\/p).<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_56121\" style=\"width: 279px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound.webp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56121\" class=\"wp-image-56121\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-300x225.webp\" alt=\"A watercolor painting of an old pier on a stony beach in Maine.\" width=\"269\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-1024x766.webp 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-768x575.webp 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-1536x1149.webp 1536w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SargentIronbound-2048x1533.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 269px) 100vw, 269px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-56121\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The Old Wharf, Ironbound<\/em> by John Singer Sargent<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bonhams did not anticipate any of the lots to go for more than $120K, meaning that after Island Funeral, the top lots significantly dropped in hammer price. Next up was a watercolor by John Singer Sargent. Like the Wyeth, this work <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">was also inspired<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by a vacation in Maine. Sometime in the early 1920s, Sargent visited the home of his friend and fellow artist Dwight Blaney on Ironbound Island in Frenchman Bay between Winter Harbor and Bar Harbor. The artists created works showing an old pier near Blaney\u2019s home. The two paintings show their respective artists&#8217; different styles and use of color, yet they are undoubtedly the same subject. Sargent gifted his painting to Blaney, and they have stayed with the Blaney family until now. Both were featured in the sale, one after the other.

First was the 1948 painting <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Copley Square<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by the Massachusetts artist Thomas Adrian Fransioli. Fransioli was originally trained as an architect, bringing detail and precision to his early twentieth-century cityscapes. <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Copley Square<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> is one of the few Fransioli paintings that includes figures.

Both paintings sold for $44K hammer (or $56.3K w\/p), far above their respective estimate ranges. The Fransioli <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">was initially predicted<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> to sell for no more than $8K, meaning it sold for 5.5 times its estimate. Meanwhile, Bonhams assigned a presale high estimate of only $5K to the Major, giving it a \u2018surprise factor\u2019 of a little less than 9.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_56123\" style=\"width: 256px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image.webp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56123\" class=\"wp-image-56123\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-300x245.webp\" alt=\"A painting of a reclining nude woman while a shower of gold descends on her,\" width=\"246\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-300x245.webp 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1024x836.webp 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-768x627.webp 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1536x1254.webp 1536w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-2048x1672.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 246px) 100vw, 246px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-56123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The Shower of Gold: Dana\u00eb<\/em> by Ernest Lee Major<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Skinner\u2019s American Art sale <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">was a success<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> in some ways but fell slightly short in others.
