AMERICAN ART ASSOCIATION; Ine: OTTO BERNET MANAGERS HIRAM H. PARKE AUCTIONEERS FOREWORD Y reason of the disposal of the Vincent Astor residence at Sixty-ffth Street and Fifth Avenue, the contents of the house have been consigned by Mr. Astor to the American Art Association, Inc., for unrestricted sale under its man- agement. The architecture of this magnificent residence is that of a chateau of the time of Francois ler, and it is known as one of the most notable residences of New York. Completed in 1895, it has been regarded as one of the landmarks of New York, its imposing facade, with its superb gates, expressing an extreme beauty of proportion and artistic merit. The sale will be conducted on the premises (840 Fifth Avenue), and the objects will be exhibited practically in the same manner as throughout the occupancy of their owners. ‘The inner bronze gates, together with the entire removable fittings, and the paneling of the | house, comprising carved woodwork, decorative canvases, wall sconces, and the like, form an important feature of the sale. The walls of the atrium, or reception hall, are paneled with canvases after Brussels car- toons. Immediately facing the entrance is a beautifully proportioned picture gallery, with its elaborately painted and gilded ceiling, containing ‘the hundred and more paintings to be offered. ‘These are mainly of the | nineteenth century French school, embracing works by Corot, Diaz, van Marcke, Detaille, Bouguereau, Lefebvre, Berne-Bellecour and Troyon, collected by the Astor family over a long period of time. In the two drawing rooms, distinguished by the beauty of the superbly _earved oak paneling, the painted insets and ceilings, are fine tapes- tries and the magnificent Italian marble mantelpieces in the Louis Qua- torze style. ‘There are several important carved and gilded brocade ‘suites, together with marqueterie commodes (including examples by Paul Sormani and H. Nelson), consoles, guéridons and the like, and a dining-room suite of over thirty chairs. Six superb Brussels tapestries of the seventeenth century include The Visit of Cyrus to the Defeated Croesus and The Tribute of the Kings to Cyrus, by Jacob van Zeunen (privileged 1644), a magnificent Caesar in Gaul by Geraert van der Streecken and The Flight of Pompey by Guillaume van Leefdael, son of the famous weaver Jan van Leefdael. Among the smaller objects are several important clock garnitures, a number of marble statuettes, bronzes, Sévres porcelains and two mag- nificent famille rose temple jars, together with a quantity of silverware, including table garnitures, a solid silver dinner service, and a George 180! tea and coffee service.
