BID ON THE-SALEROOM
ARR - Rowland Emett, (1906-1999) 'Plain Sailing' in interesting maquette study for a Midland Bank installation by Emett, depicting a fantastical sailing ship piloted by Bank staff, mixed media collage on duck egg blue card with sepia ink annotations, including a partial payment slip from Emett's own Midland Bank account as the ship's sail, inscribed in pencil to lower right margin 'Rough Sketch - Rowland Emett', 17.5 x 26, (44.5cm x 66cm), mounted but unframed., (s/d). Provenance: The husband of the current owner was architect for Midland Bank, who commissioned Emett to design a shop window display in the 1960s. The architects retained this preliminary sketch. The mechanical device was eventually commissioned and built but its whereabouts or survival are unknown (ex. inf. vendor).
Some curling to card through lack of framing. Fading to ink annotations, some staining and foxing to field, plus additional browning to card mount. - Shipping Info
