Description:
1829. Signed Aug. Edouart fecit and dated 1829 lower left. 11 x 7-1/4 inches. Matted. Signed Aug. Edouart fecit and dated 1829 lower left. 11 x 7-1/4 inches. Augustin Amant Edouart was a French-born portrait artist who began making silhoutte portraits in London in 1825. In 1829 he moved to Edinburgh, where he worked for three years before traveling in the United States and then moving back to France. Edouart's silhouttes, cut out from black paper by hand, are held by collections such as the National Portrait Gallery in London, the National Galleries of Scotland, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. His work has been included in several leading exhibitions on silhouettes as an art form. This fine example of Edouart's work shows a man in a top hat carrying a thin straight cane, followed by a small dog with short legs. The workmanship gives a sense of motion, and the glint of white at the man's collar is striking in an otherwise near-solid figure. Provenance: Kennedy Galleries, Inc., New York

Original vintage silver gelatin photograph,image size 9 5/8 x 7 3/4 in. [24.4 x 19.7 cm.]. Matted to archival standards with a window over-mat, framed and glazed with uv protecting glass, in a pewter colored wooden frame 17 3/8 x 15 1/4 inches. There is a tiny crease to the upper left tip; else a fine print. Camilla Koffler, "Ylla", 1911 - 1955) was born in Vienna, attended boarding school in Budapest, and studied sculpture in Belgrade. When she discovered that her name, Camilla stood for "Camel" in Serbian, she changed it to Ylla. In 1931, she moved to Paris and worked as an assistant to photographer, Ergy Landau. In 1932, she began what would be her "calling": photographing animals. In 1940, MoMA was instrumental in obtaining an entry visa for her and she settled in the U.S. in 1941. She published several collections on dogs, cats, ducks and chimps. This photograph of a Spaniel chewing a bone on which is printed in pale blue crayon "Merry Xmas", and is SIGNED in pink crayon, "Ylla", is a vintage photograph with a ferrotyped surface, circa 1950.
