Central Park, poster in signature copy of Adolf Dehn. An American Artist from 1895-1968. under glass, dark wood frame, label reverse. showcasing Central park in New York City, Published in 2003 at Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, and is copyrighted. 27.5 inch h. x 36.25 inch w. very good aged. Adolf Dehn, well known artist, was born and raised in rural Minnesota. A lithographer, with poetic landscapes and satires of Jazz Age follies: Vienna cafes, Berlin opera houses, and Paris brothels. Settling in New York in late 1929, Dehn spent the next decade making spoofs of Manhattan nightclubs, as well as lyrical studies of Central Park, rural New York, and Minnesota. his passion for the Southwestern landscape, freely interpreted, leads to a semi-abstract style that links him indirectly to the art of Milton Avery and Georgia O'Keeffe in the 1950s. He lets the picture, as elusive as life, grow before his eyes.   « Less

Castle Museum Nottingham Collection (similar toby in collection) ii. A Collectors History of English Pottery - Griselda Lewis - Antique Collectors Club - Page • A Short History of the Brampton Potties: Collectors are probably familiar with the label 'Brampton ware' as referring to the more ornate sprig decorated pieces such as puzzle jugs, toast racks, jugs, teapots and coffee pots, made from an almost white clay which gives a light honey surface and in good examples vivid orange peel colouring in a salt firing. However the Brampton potteries also made pots with a dark brown colour more usually associated with pottery made in Nottingham. In the eighteenth century, Nottingham had become so famous for its finely made brown pottery, that 'Nottingham ware' became the generic name for all dark brown saltglaze made in the Midlands, although no items can be attributed to Nottingham after 1800. The Brampton potteries made types of ware that were very similar to each other, but individual factories also specialised in particular lines. Large quantities of bottles, kegs and barrels, jam jars, stew and saucepots, storage jars, flat dishes, turtle and beef pots, bowls, pudding moulds, colanders and water filters were produced, besides the rare and in some cases very rare ornamental pieces such as toby jugs, ink wells, figurines etc... Only a few pieces of Brampton ware are marked and therefore individual pots are difficult to attribute to specific factories. The issue is further confused by the fact that the potteries worked co-operatively and might contract work to another factory in the area if they received a large order, and in some instances workmen would move from one factory to another. icollect, London, UNITED KINGDOM • We specialize in rare and novelty antiques but also cater for all tastes and price ranges. • If you are unsure about any item or would like further details please contact us first, we respond to all E-Mails within 24 hours unless otherwise stated (i.e. if we are away and uncertain about having internet access available).

They produced some fine salt glazed stoneware similar in style and look to those made by the Doulton and Fulham potteries. James Stiff (1808-97) was born in Rougham, Suffolk the son of Robert Stiff, a workhouse master and farmer. After working as a plasterers assistant he moved to London in 1826 to be apprenticed at the Coade Stone Manufactory. By 1830 he was working for Doulton and Watts as a mould maker and in 1842 struck out on his own making water filters at a premises in Ferry Street, Lambeth. From there he moved to 39 High Street, and was sufficiently successful to be able to form the partnership with his sons in 1863. icollect, London, UNITED KINGDOM • We specialize in rare and novelty antiques but also cater for all tastes and price ranges. • If you are unsure about any item or would like further details please contact us first, we respond to all E-Mails within 24 hours unless otherwise stated (i.e. if we are away and uncertain about having internet access available).
