        (München 1843-1924) „La Camargo“, Poulinière à Jardy“, titled on plaque, signed, dated Emil Adam 1905, La Camargo, oil on canvas, 56 x 68 cm, framed Provenance : Collection Edmond Blanc (1856-1920), Paris / Neuilly-sur-Seine; His heirs – Private Collection, France; Sale, Beaussant & Lefévre, Paris, 7 November 2011, Lot 25. Compare: Guy Thibault, Un siècle de galop 1900-2000, Paris 2001, p. 18 f. La Camargo, a bay mare born in 1898 (by Childwick, out of Belle et Bonne), owned by Adolphe Abeille, was one of the all-time greats on the racecourse. In 1900, as a 2-year-old, she won the Prix de la Forêt at Chantilly. In 1901 at Longchamp she won the Prix de Diane and La Poule d’Essai des Pouliches (the French Classics for 3-year old fillies), the Prix Vermeille (for 3-year-olds and older) and the Prix du Cadran (over 4000 m). In 1902 she won the Grosser Preis von Baden, in 1903 the Prix des Sablons and the Prix d’Ispahan; the latter again in 1904. In all, she ran 35 races during her career 1900-1904, winning 25 of them and being placed in seven. The Haras de Jardy was the famous breeding operation established in 1890 by Edmond Blanc at Marnes-la-Coquette outside Paris, where La Camargo was sent after her remarkable racing career ended in 1904. She was admired at Jardy by King Edward VII during his visit in May 1905, the year the present painting is dated. In 1911 she was bought by Lady James Douglas for her recently established Harwood Stud, near Newbury, and exported to England. La Camargo died at Newmarket in May 1913, following a veterinary error.

      • Emil Adam - Rock Sand with Jockey Up

        Emil Adam - Rock Sand with Jockey Up

        Est: $15,000 - $20,000

        Emil Adam (German, 1843–1924) ROCK SAND WITH JOCKEY UP $15,000. – $20,000. Oil on canvas, 22 1⁄2” x 27” Signed, dated 1904 $15,000. – 20,000. The Roquebrune Line The elder Blackwell is best remembered for training Rock Sand to victory in the 1903 English Triple Crown. Rock Sand, owned and bred by James Miller, was out of the St. Simon mare Roquebrune, who won two races and was a half sister to the Epsom Oaks winner Seabreeze. Rock Sand was her first foal. Rock Sand began his 2-year-old season winning the Bedford Stakes at Newmarket. He went on to triumph in the Woodcote Stakes, Coventry Stakes, Chesterfield Stakes, and Champagne Stakes. At the end of his 2-year-old year, Rock Sand was the 4-to-1 favorite for the following year’s Derby. This was especially impressive because most people considered the horse to be a terrible mover and too small to be a Derby winner. His 3-year-old year was even more impressive. He started the year with a win in a relatively minor race that prepped him for his Triple Crown campaign. At the April Two Thousand Guineas, he was the 6-to-4 favorite. Ridden by the American jockey Skeets Martin, Rock Sand won the race by a length and a half, with Flotsam second and Rabelais third (respective grandson and son of St. Simon). It was reported in the Sportsman that Rock Sand “does not gallop until he is compelled to. In the Two Thousand Guineas, he had at one part of the race to be driven, but when he got going, he simply played with the field, winning very easily.” He went on to win the Derby at Epsom under a new jockey, Danny Maher, as the 4-to-6 favorite in front of a crowd, including the King, Queen, and the Prince and Princess of Wales. Before competing in the St Leger, Rock Sand ran several other races. He handily won the St. James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot. In the Eclipse Stakes at Sandown, he raced against older horses, notably Ard Patrick, the previous year’s Derby winner, and the filly Spectre, who had won four other British classic races in 1902. Together they were considered the best horses in England at the time, and the race, dubbed the “Battle of Giants,” drew an immense crowd that year. Rock Sand went off as the favorite, but the two more-experienced horses pulled away from the pack and fought neck and neck for the finish. Rock Sand finished third with Ard Patrick in first and Spectre second. Interestingly, all three horses were grandsons of St. Simon. On September 9, 1903, Rock Sand ran in the St Leger. Only four horses opposed him, and he was the 2-to-5 favorite. It was reported in the Star that he “was never really extended and won by four lengths.” Rock Sand continued to race as a 4-year-old and won the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot (where he beat Spectre for the first time), the Princess of Wales’s Stakes at Newmarket, and the £10,000 Jockey Club Stakes, which would be the last race of his career. Though he won his last race, he was said to be moving even more poorly than usual and was retired shortly thereafter due to persistent tendon trouble. He was sent to stud near Newmarket, but when his owner, James Miller, died in 1906, Rock Sand was put up for sale. His buyer was the American pillar of the turf August Belmont, who purchased the horse for £25,000 and shipped him to his Nursery Stud in Lexington. As a sire, Rock Sand proved to be just as impressive as he was as a racehorse. He’s most remembered in the United States as the sire of Mahubah, the dam of Man o’ War (lot 34). He also sired Tracery who, like his father before him, won the St Leger. Tracery’s son, Papyrus, won the 1923 Epsom Derby and went on to sire Cosquilla, the dam of Princequillo (lot 35). Other progeny of note include Damrosch and Friar Rock, who won the 1916 Preakness and Belmont, respectively.

        Emil Adam (German, 1843–1924) MELODY & MONS MEG (a pair) $10,000. – $15,000. Oil on canvas, 12” x 15” each Signed, inscribed, dated 1891 $10,000. – 15,000. (pair) In England, George Blackwell Sr. continued to work under Matthew Dawson as his head stable lad. With Blackwell’s assistance, the duo trained Melody and the Australian import Mons Meg for Daniel Cooper (an Australian who moved to England in his early 20s). In 1890 the two horses achieved success on the same day at Ascot, with Melody taking the Prince of Wales’s Stakes and Mons Meg triumphing in the Queen’s Vase. These combined victories most likely were the impetus behind the commission of a pair of Emil Adam paintings featured in this sale. The paintings of the victors were completed in 1891 after Dawson retired from training, leaving Blackwell to take over. Blackwell would have been present when Adam worked on this pair of paintings. Blackwell would go on to follow in the footsteps of his mentor to achieve great success. He trained Chaleureux to victory in the 1898 Cesarewitch Handicap and Manchester November Handicap. Chaleureux was known to have such an evil temperament that no one in the barn would go near him, and Blackwell was the only one brave enough to handle him. The horse he made a name for himself with, however, was English Triple Crown winner Rock Sand.

        Emil Adam - Lonely

        Est: $4,000 - $6,000

        Emil Adam (German, 1843–1924) LONELY $4,000. – $6,000. Oil on canvas, 10 1⁄2” x 13” Signed, inscribed “Newmarket” and “Lonely” $4,000. – 6,000. Lonely was a bay daughter of Hermit foaled in 1882. A contemporary of St. Simon, she had a successful 2-year-old season, winning the Exeter and the Hopeful stakes at Newmarket, and the Rous Stakes at Doncaster, as well as three other races. Her success continued into her 3-year-old career when she won the Oaks at Epsom, where she was the heavy betting favorite. As a broodmare, she was bred to St. Simon once, producing a filly of 1892, Saintly, who won both the National Stakes and the Woodcote Stakes. Of interest to this sale, however, is her daughter Barley (by Barcaldine), who was exported to Australia and became the dam of Maltster (lot 30).

        Emil Adam - St. Simon in a Stable

        Est: $15,000 - $20,000

        Emil Adam (German, 1843–1924) ST SIMON IN A STABLE $15,000. – $20,000. Oil on canvas, 22” x 27 1⁄2” Signed, inscribed & dated 1895 $15,000. – 20,000. Illustrated: Theo Taunton, Famous Horses, Simpson, Low and Co., 1895, page 350 St. Simon was bred by Prince Gustavus Batthyany of Hungary in 1881. Upon the prince’s death from a heart attack at the 1883 Two Thousand Guineas, his entire stable, including the 2-year-old colt St. Simon, was dispersed at the Tattersalls July Sale in Newmarket. The Duke of Portland, a mere 25 years old and relatively new to the sport, purchased St. Simon for 1,800 guineas. The horse he wanted, however, was the horse that went through the ring immediately before St. Simon (on which the Duke had unsuccessfully bid). Feeling defeated, he settled on St. Simon, a bay horse whose trainer had painted the horse’s hocks white to dissuade bidders. (Fortunately for the Duke of Portland, the original trainer of St. Simon, John Dawson, was the brother of his own trainer, Matthew Dawson, who probably suspected that his brother wanted to keep the horse for himself.) St. Simon’s initial days of training didn’t prove promising. His stride was awkward and jumpy and he was considered less than coordinated. Nevertheless, the Duke of Portland and Matthew Dawson pressed on. Their faith in the horse paid off. St. Simon won 10 races and was never defeated. His principal performance was winning the Ascot Gold Cup in 1884 by an incredible 20 lengths. It is said he was so strong it took almost an entire lap of the course for his jockey, Fred Archer, to pull him up. He went on to win the Gold Cup at Goodwood in another impressive manner, never breaking into a full gallop, defeating Ossian, winner of the St Leger. Dawson “declared St. Simon to have been the best animal he ever had under his care,” according to Theo Taunton’s Famous Horses. Though he never competed in the classic races, St. Simon was still hailed as the champion of his crop and one of the best racehorses of all time.
