Charles Bragg (American, b. 1931-), "Hazy Reminiscence", oil on canvas, signed to lower right "Charles Bragg", with plaque to frame "Charles Bragg Hazy Reminiscence". Figural cubist style painting depicting group of young boys grouped around a dice game on sitting room floor. Framed approximately 49.5" x 43.25". Unframed approximately 36" x 30". Provenance: From the Private Collection of Susan E. Yeomans of S. Battery, Charleston, South Carolina (a descendant of former Governor of South Carolina Ibra C. Blackwood and his wife, Margaret Hodges; former President of the United States of America, Grover Cleveland; and former Governor of South Carolina, Carroll Ashmore Campbell Jr.). Note: Charles Bragg (American, b. 1931-) is a noted California-based illustrator, painter and sculptor whose work emphasizes social commentary and satirical subject matter.
Scattered abrasions, nicks and dings to both sculptures; not distracting and commensurate with material and handling. Scattered minor losses to bottom perimeter of stone bases. Dirt and surface grime to both. Both tazzas later; plastic composition. One sculpture articulates slightly on base when force is applied. One with scuffs and oxidation to legs. One base with scattered areas of sealed cracks/losses; much more prevalent under black light than under normal light conditions.
Condition report statements are provided as a courtesy to interested clients by request - these reports state our professional opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact. As such, Ahlers & Ogletree Auction Gallery is not responsible for any omissions or errors to these condition reports. It is important to note that the absence of a condition report does not mean that the lot is in perfect condition. Prior to bidding, please consult the additional photos provided and ask all pertinent questions (i.e. condition, size, etc.). Packing and shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, please see our website for a list of shipping companies. For a condition report, please email Condition@AandOauctions.com. For additional photos, please email Photos@AandOauctions.com. Please note, Ahlers & Ogletree Auction Gallery sells items at a rate of approximately 80 to 100 lots per hour in a live auction setting. Since the auction moves quickly, online bidding platforms are,at times, unable to keep up with the pace. To avoid potential disappointment when bidding on an online platform, consider placing a realistic absentee bid in advance of the sale. Priority, in regards to bidding, goes to in-house floor bidders. Occasionally, the auctioneer may reject a live online bid and/or reopen a lot after the close of online bidding (typically due to a missed in-house floor bid). Due to this possibility, at times the online bidding platform will show an online bidder as the winning bid when they are not. All final winning bidders will be notified via invoicing from Ahlers & Ogletree typically by the Monday immediately following the sale. To bid with Ahlers & Ogletree as a phone or absentee bidder, please feel free to email us at bid@AandOAuctions.com. Lastly, please make sure to read over our firm's Terms and Conditions of Sale before bidding.
