A late spring auction just after Memorial Day offers an eclectic mix of fine and decorative arts with a focus on modern art and traditional European and American furniture. The Estate Treasures Auction, Part 1 and 2, is scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, May 27th and 28th by Nye & Company Auctioneers, online-only, starting both days at 10 am Eastern time. Highlights include, a group of three Keith Haring subway drawings from the estate of a private collector who was heavily involved in New York City’s fashion and art worlds during the late ‘70s and ‘80s. These works have not been restored and remain in the same state as the day they were removed from the subway walls. Three Henry Moore plaster maquettes, these sculptures were given directly from Moore to Martha Spencer, who worked at Perry Green, which was Moore’s atelier. Additionally, is a wonderful Eero Saarinen tulip table being offered from a posh Park Avenue collection. Also included is a pair of Knoll “Wassily” chairs that were originally designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925.bTraditional decorative art enthusiasts will be delighted with a superb group of pieces being offered by the estate of William Hodgins, the highly regarded Boston-based interior designer. Hodgins was an Architectural Digest, AD100 decorator once described as “a beacon of American Classicism.” His work has been published in Architectural Digest, House and Garden, Vogue, Town and Country and the New York Times. Additional highlights include a Federal mahogany tall case clock by Aaron Willard of the Massachusetts clockmaking family. There is also a wonderful architectural Dutch influenced Kasten from New York. For fans of the Bard of Avon – William Shakespeare – there is a tremendous amount of Shakespeare, theatrical and literary-related material being offered by the estate of a private Upper West Side, New York City collector.
