A limited edition print by PIET MONDRIAN (1872-1944) titled "Composition II in red, blue and yellow, 1930" This actual print was printed in London and is one from the published edition which was strictly limited to 85 copies Worldwide (numbered in the publishers frank). It will be supplied with a replacement valuation for £1800 (free of charge). It will be accompanied with a certificate of authenticity which verifies this is number of the edition. It has also signed by the Master Printer. It has been printed to the highest standard with lightfast inks onto acid-free calcium carbonate-buffered stock, mould-made from 100% cotton. It has been professionally mounted and framed. Mondrian was born in Holland in 1872 and was determined to become a painter from a young age. He qualified with a teaching degree in 1892, but enrolled for painting lessons, before moving to Amsterdam and registering at the Rijksacademie. Mondrian became a member of the art society Kunstliefde "Art Lovers" in Utrecht, where his first paintings were exhibited in 1893. He experimented with many different styles including naturalistic, impressionist and painting many landscapes of his native country. In 1911 he moved to Paris and the influence of Cubism, as evidenced by Picasso and Braque, started to appear almost immediately in his work. He spent the duration of the First World War back in Holland and continued his journey towards abstraction. After the War had finished Mondrian returned to France. He then moved to London in 1938 but relocated to New York just two years later in 1940, where he remained until his death. Mondrian is well known for his contribution to the development of modern abstract art. He strove to portray an extreme formal purity through his combination of simplistic straight lines and bold primary colours. The Image: Mondrian spent the period 1914-1918 (World War I) back at his home in Holland and during this time, he decided to work on an abstract art form which was later classified as Neoplastic style. This work was depicted by lighter colours, simplified colour selection and forms that were balanced in their composition. This work is a result of Mondrian joining the abstraction-creation line which was open to new styles, new techniques and at this time Mondrian began to be fascinated with the idea of the line and dismantling the very definition of painting. He argued that drawing and draughtsmanship which were exemplified in the line, had always lain at the heart of painting from the Renaissance artists to the Impressionists to the Modernists and no one had ever thought to challenge that..

A striking original painting on canvas by MIRELLA BITETTI of a girl posing on bed. Canvas on boxed stretcher ready to hang. Signed on the reverse by the artist. This lot is supplied with a replacement valuation for £1600 (free of charge). Mirella Bitetti was born in 1963 and was largely inspired by the 1980s. The 1980s were an era of growing global capitalism, political upheaval, worldwide mass media, wealth discrepancies and distinctive music and fashion, characterised by hip hop and electronic pop music. This had a heavy impact on the generation of artists growing up during this time. The fall of the Berlin Wall at the end of the 1980s signified the end of the Cold War, yet the era was also distinguished by the African Famine. During this time prominent art movements included Neo Geo, The Pictures Generation and Neo-Expressionism, which took a strong hold in Germany, France and Italy. Artists such as Anselm Kiefer, Jorg Immendorf, Enzo Cucchi, Francesco Clemente and Julian Schnabel were key artists working during this period, alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Kenny Scharf, who established the street art and graffiti movements, which quickly gained recognition..

Supplied with the certificate of authenticity signed by the Master Printer. In special bespoke frame and mounted. Note: supplied (free of charge) with replacement valuation certificate for £2000. The Scream is the popular name given to each of four versions of a composition, created as both paintings and pastels, by the Expressionist artist Edvard Munch between 1893 and 1910. Der Schrei der Natur (The Scream of Nature) is the title Munch gave to these works, all of which show a figure with an agonized expression against a landscape with a tumultuous orange sky. This was the fourth version which was done in pastel and completed in 1895. In 2012 it was sold for $119,922,600 at Sotheby's Impressionist and Modern art auction to financier Leon Black. In his diary in an entry headed, Nice 22 January 1892, Munch described his inspiration for the image: One evening I was walking along a path, the city was on one side and the fjord below. I felt tired and ill. I stopped and looked out over the fjord the sun was setting, and the clouds turning blood red. I sensed a scream passing through nature; it seemed to me that I heard the scream. I painted this picture, painted the clouds as actual blood. The colour shrieked. This became The Scream.. H: 100cm W: 75cm D: 5cm

A limited edition print by PABLO PICASSO titled "Femme Ecrivant which has been professionally framed in an expensive hand made frame and Art mounted. Supplied with signed certificate of authenticity (signed by the Master Printer) and numbered in the embossed stamp, one of only 91 published Worldwide. Note: supplied with a replacement valuation certificate for £1800 along with biographical details on the artist (free of charge). During the years 1927 until 1935, Picasso was besotted by Marie Therese. For him, she had a very arresting face with a Grecian profile and he adored her blonde hair, so she became not only his muse but a great model. During this period, Picasso had an amazing creative explosion of work, due to her youthful innocence, undying devotion and great vitality and his work became an expression of his love and worship for her. The painting was created at a picturesque chateau in a small Normandy village which Picasso had purchased in 1930 and there Marie-Therese spent the week whilst Picassos wife Olga was only there at the weekends. Pablo Picasso was undoubtedly the most influential artist of the twentieth century and perhaps the greatest artist of all time. During his lifetime, his personality dominated the development of visual arts and he provided the inspiration or most of the enormous and revolutionary changes which took place. Picasso was born in Spain in 1881 and began to paint precociously at the age of seven under his father's tutelage. He studied at the Barcelona School of Fine Arts and by the turn of the century he was shuttling between Barcelona and Paris establishing his reputation. He is perhaps best known for co-founding the "Cubist" movement but his work embraced and inspired an enormous variety of styles and techniques, ranging from painting and sculpture to etching and lino-cutting. Picasso was married twice and had four children by three women; he also maintained a number of mistresses, some of whom played a significant role in the development of his work. He died in April 1973, unquestionably the most significant name in twentieth century art.. H: 85cm W: 76cm D: 6cm

This WASSILY KANDINSKY limited edition titled "In Blue, 1925" was published as a numbered edition of only 75 Worldwide of which this print is one from the edition. Complete with a certificate of authenticity signed by the "Master Printer". Each print in this edition has been hand sorted and fully inspected by the Master Printer. Professionally framed to a high standard in a bespoke frame and art mounted. Note: supplied with replacement valuation certificate for £1800 along with biographical details on the artist (free of charge). Condition is excellent. This work was produced by the artist during his Bauhaus period in Germany when he taught basic design and advanced colour theory and where he also conducted painting classes. His examination of the effects of forces on straight lines led to his contrasting tones on curved and angled lines and you might describe this work as a geometric abstraction with the circle, the half circle, the curves and the straight lines. Kandinsky was also influenced by Gestalt psychological research which had an influence on him in addition to his colour theory. The Gestalt effect is the capability of the brain to generate complete forms, particularly about the visual recognition of global figures instead of just collections of more straightforward and separate elements such as points, lines and curves..

Bespoke special mount and professionally framed, image approx 19x25cm. Excellent condition. Please note: supplied with replacement valuation certificate for £1790 (free of charge). Notes on the image: Tete D'Homme is a remarkable example of Picasso's mature style; brimming with painterly verve and stylish invention. Picasso's astonishing capacity for handling paint is wonderfully present in Tete D'Homme. Lustrous colours cover the centre of the canvas endowing the figure with a startlingly vivid presence. Throughout his oeuvre, Picasso's images of the male figure embody masculine power, and are rendered with a bravuric intensity "I have less and less time and I have more and more to say" commented Picasso in his last decade, and the freedom and spontaneity of his mature work, together with the recourse to archetypal figures and symbols is visual evidence of this. The seemingly limitless energy that characterizes so much of his work is extant in this final burst of creativity, as well as a conscious decision to allow himself total liberty with both style and subject matter. Having gone through so many phases of stylistic and technical experimentation, Picasso now pared down his style in order to paint monumental works in quick, spontaneous brush strokes. Rather than ponder the details of human anatomy and perspective, the artist isolated those elements of his subject that fascinated and preoccupied him, and depicted them with an extraordinary sense of wit entirely of his own.. H: 120cm W: 89cm D: 4cm
