Perlman. Leading session one is Francis Augustus Silva’s Early Morning Sailing. Silva (1835 – 1886) was a second-generation Hudson River School painter from New York. He is best known as an American Luminist painter who captured the marine life around the Hudson River and the coastline of Massachusetts. The available painting shows a sunrise with atmospheric effects. Also notable is an oil on board depicting sharecroppers titled Picking Cotton by William Aiken Walker (1838 – 1921). Three figures pick cotton in a field with cottages in the distance. Walker was a South Carolina artist whose most famous paintings document Southern scenes of plantations, cotton fields, docks, and wood cabins. The available lot is accompanied by a letter from Anne Cohen DePietro, from the Charleston Renaissance Gallery, certifying to her knowledge that the work is an original by Walker.
During session two, the catalog features Watson sterling silverware sets, jewelry, and fine armorial china sets. Included is a Watson Sterling silver set containing 143 knives, forks, spoons, pierced serving forks, a scalloped serving spoon, and a cheese knife.
