Done! Just in time for Christmas😅. These beautiful frames were made by Joris. A glass slide of a study for a shark from 1900 was given a hardwood lightbox, and 4 microphotographs from Braunschweig were mounted in an elevated plexiglass frame.

Sold yesterday a photogravure Stanislaw Walery.
The portfolio from which this image came was titled “NUS” (“Naked”) and was credited in the title to Laryew, an anagram used in an effort to separate Stanislas Walery’s erotic work with his more formal photography, as well as the work of his father. NUS included 100 heliogravures of nude women in various poses ranging from classical to modernist; some featured stark, angular lighting and architectural details, lending them a machine-age, Art Deco style. It is thought that these women are dancers from the popular Folies Bergere, a subject he frequently revisited.NUS considered among the best examples of experimental Art Deco photography.

WILLARD, Jess (1881-1968).
Photo of Jess Willard in Yonkers. 1923.
Black and white photograph depicts former heavyweight champion Jess Willard standing amidst a group of smiling neighborhood children in Yonkers, NY, shortly
before beginning training for his comeback match against Floyd Johnson. Stamped “Apr 25 1923” on verso.
Known as the Pottawatomie Giant, Jess Willard became an international sensation when on April 5, 1915, he knocked out heavyweight champion Jack Johnson in the 26th round before a huge crowd in Havana, Cuba. Willard defended his title the following year in a bout against Frank Moran on March 25, 1916 at Madison Square Garden. The end came on July 4, 1919, in a fight against Jack Dempsey in Toledo, Ohio. It is said during this bout that Willard lost several teeth and suffered a broken jaw and three broken ribs. Dempsey won the title in the fourth round, though Willard’s refusal to give up even after the beating he’d suffered is today considered to be one of the most impressive displays of perseverance in
boxing history."

SOLD Bettie Page

“The ultimate girl-next-door, and one of the most popular Playboy centerfolds, Bettie Page challenged the conservative 1950s, posing as a fierce dominatrix, and earning both a cult underground following and a Senate Committee investigation.” Is written on the back of the book about Bettie Page by Karen Essex in 1996.

From an impoverished Tennessee girl to an iconic 1950s model who helped usher in the sexual revolution of the 1960s, Bettie Page lived nothing if not a full life. She inspired comic books, fashion, and even action figures, and today she’s best remembered as an icon of feminine power and sexual expression.

SOLD Moon Stereoscopic Series No.VI

Price 650,- (framed)

The Moon itself is impressive, but the effort required to take these pictures makes it particularly impressive.

To create a stereo image requires two slightly different images to be overlaid with mostly the same detail, but enough subtle differences to make the image three-dimensional. However, taking pictures of something as distant as the Moon would require the two lenses to be incredibly far apart. An alternative method, is to take two photographs that are very far apart in time. That is the method that was used by Warren De La Rue to take these particular stereo-images. For example, the previous set of Moon pictures are separated by more than a year.

The first one was taken on 27 February 1858, and the second on 11 September 1859. The first was when the Moon was 14.2 days old, and in the second it was 14.8 days old, allowing the two images to be just different enough to create the stereo-effect when observed through a viewer.

To do all this the chemist, astronomer and gentleman-adventurer Warren de la Rue (1815–89) set about designing this large telescope for his own private observatory near London. It was completed in 1849, and improved when he moved to a better observatory nearby in 1857. De la Rue wasn’t the first to take photographs through a telescope; but his telescope was, as far as we know, the first to be designed and built with photography in mind.

These photographs are in excellent condition, professionally framed and for sale in our online store. Other examples of these series are part of museum collections in the Metropolitan Museum New York and the Victoria and Albert museum in Londen.

Title: Joseph Beuys vor dem Museum Fridericianum bei den Basaltstelen

Price: 480,- Euro. (Frame included)

For Documenta 7, the artist Joseph Beuys proposed a plan to have 7000 oaks trees planted across the city of Kassel, each tree accompanied with basalt stone, 4 feet high above the ground.

In this picture we see Beuys standing on a mountain of 7000 basalt stones that were piled up in front of the Museum Fridericianum at the beginning of the project.

In an interview Joseph Beuys states “The planting of seven thousand oak trees is thus only a symbolic beginning. And such a symbolic beginning requires a marker, in this instance a basalt column. The intention of such a tree-planting event is to point up the transformation of all of life, of society, and of the whole ecological system.’ ‘I believe that planting these oaks is necessary, not only in biospheric terms, that is to say, in the context of matter and ecology, but in that it will raise ecological consciousness – raise it increasingly, in the course of the years to come, because we shall never stop planting.’ – Joseph Beuys, 1982

The planting continued for five years throughout public spaces in the inner city, negotiated through site proposals submitted by residents, councils, schools and other local associations. The last tree was planted at the opening of Documenta 8 in June 1987 by his son, Beuys passed away in 1964 at the age of 64.

Description: Artur de Sousa, known by his nickname Pinga (July 30, 1909 – July 12, 1963) was a Portuguese footballer and later coach. On 5 May of 1935, Pinga scored two late goals against Spain to complete an iconic comeback, from 3-0 down up to 3-3. One goal via a penalty kick. The match was held at the 'Stadium of Light', Benfica, and watched by 50,000 people.

This photo is also a good example of elementary retouching on prints. We can see that the outline of the shirt and legs were enhanced with a brush 90 years ago, probably to make Pinga stand out more.

Fun fact: Pinga was born in the same village, Funchal, capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira, as the famous Christiano Ronaldo.

Artist: Rudof Krziwanek (1843-1905)

Product type: Silver gelatin print

Authentication: On verso Studio Krziwanek in print, stamp 'Sammlung Korty'

Dimensions: 11 cm x 21 cm

Rudolf Krziwanek (1843-1905) operated a photographic studio in Vienna, Austria between 1870 and 1905. He took portraits of the Hapsburg Court as wel as famous people and artists. Although his photographs are part of collections as the J. Paul Getty Museum and the National Portrait Gallery (UK), there is something that interest me even more than his beautiful pictures.

In this case it is the collector's mark on the back of he picture ’ Sammlung Raoul Korty’.
Raoul Korty (1889-1944) was born in 1889, and his father was an Austrian-Jewish banker. He attended the Vienna Academy of Arts, but did not finish due to military service. In World War I, he served as an officer in the Austro-Hungarian Army. Korty started collecting photo’s in twenties and thirties. At its peak, the collection must have numbered more than 250,000 items, which made this one of the largest in europe. Of these, about 30,000 are present today in the national library in the Austrian capital.

The Korty collection contains photographs of individuals from Vienna's highest circles in the second half of the 19th and the first quarter of the 20th century. These range from stately family portraits to the piquant poses of noblewomen and singers, to snapshots of fashionable parties. Numerous photographs concern celebrated actresses and artistes, as, for example in this picture, star singer and sex symbol avant la lettre Emilie Turecek (1846-1889), nicknamed Fiaker Milli in 1870.

Crime-scene photographs depict homicide victims, police officers, vehicles, horses, dogs, evidence, police equipment, mug shots, and fingerprints. But not often the photographer! This photo comes from a Collection of NYPD Crime Scene Photographs. It depicts a Mafia shooting in New York 1950s. For the homicide pictures, the police used special tripods with the camera suspended above the victim. The deliberation that went into taking the photos is remarkable compared to today, when hundreds of digital photos are taken at a crime scene from every possible angle. "Back then some guys shot five pictures at a job. When you were more concerned about missing something, you would take eight." (Martin Shapiro retired photgrapher NYPD)

President Wilson disembarking the USS George Washington
Price € 325,-

President Wilson disembarking the USS George Washington from his first stay in Europe.

Stork 923
Price 450,-

While what we have on our walls is important, the key to art looking good is more about how to hang pictures. As a rule of thumb, hanging pictures at eye level is a safe option. Typically, modern and contemporary works hang at 1.55 metres, to the middle of the picture. That’s the height used by museums, and for displays at auction houses like Christie’s.

Organizing different pieces alongside one another like this Stork number 923 on a bookshelf with shells can also create a visually striking display.
