Doyle’s Boston Collects Sale Features William Bradford Painting, Georg Jensen Silver
Jun 07, 2024 10:00 EDTThe upcoming Boston Collects sale, presented by Doyle, features a range of fine art, decorative art, furniture, jewelry, and more. Leading the catalog is an oil on canvas painting by American artist William Bradford. Titled Sunset on the Coast of Labrador, this inscribed work offers an idyllic view of a beach. Sunlight adds golden edges to the clouds, while boulders and cliffs mark the rugged shore. A Romantic painter, Bradford focused his output on the ships that docked at New Bedford Harbor in Massachusetts. He was also an explorer who voyaged to the Arctic and painted the frozen landscapes that he saw. Notable among folk art lots in this sale is a crayon and graphite on paper piece by American artist Fritz Vogt. This piece depicts a country home surrounded by trees. Vogt made his living by traveling New York’s back roads in the 1890s and offering to draw homes, farms, businesses, and other structures.
Elsewhere in the catalog, collectors can consider furniture items and tableware, including a Georg Jensen sterling silver “Pyramid” pattern flatware set. Made between 1933 and 1944, this collection includes nearly 200 pieces stamped with the brand’s hallmark. Collectors can also consider a Victorian burl veneer reniform desk from Holland & Sons. It has a gilt tooled leather top, three frieze drawers, and a plinth base. For more information and to register to bid in the upcoming Boston Collects sale, visit Doyle’s website.
