NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle held a successful sale in the popular Fine Art auction category on December 5, 2024. Showcased were paintings, prints and sculpture spanning the Post-War years to the present day by established and emerging artists.
Jamini Roy's Black Horse was a highlight of the sale receiving multiple bids internationally and selling for $8,960 against an estimate of $5,000-7,000. A wonderful example of artist's practice of blending Bengali patachitra paintings with flattened modernist elements, Roy's work has received new acclaim in recent years for ushering a unique identify for Indian art in modernist era. Declared a national treasure under Indian law, collectors are increasingly vying to acquire a work by him on the international art market.
Robert Moore Kulicke was a renaissance man with a deep understanding of the history of art and a reverence for the art of his own time. He was a master frame-maker, designing frames for Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell, and MoMA, as well as making period frames for works by Giotto and Leonardo da Vinci. Kulicke was also a renowned goldsmith who excelled in the art of cloisonné. And of course, he was a painter. His still lifes evoke Morandi with their quiet solitude and Manet with jewel-like colors set against rich greys. These qualities are on full display in Wildflowers in a Glass Jar with Fallen Blossom, which sold for $12,160 more than doubling its estimate of $3,000-5,000.
