AMBROISE L. GARNERAY (1783-1857), WHALING PRINT
Est: $500 - $700
Peche de la Baleine Whale-Fisery Colored aquatint Ambroise L. Garneray (French, 1783-1857), with gallery label from The Old Print Shop, Lexington Ave, New York on verso h. 21-1/4 w. 31 in. overall: 26-3/4 x 36-1/4 in. (frame) Considered one of the best whaling prints. The print is noted in Herman Melville's book "Moby Dick." "But, taken for all in all, by far the finest, though in some details not the most correct, presentations of whales and whaling scenes to be anywhere found, are two large French engravings, well executed, and taken from paintings by one Garnery. Respectively, they represent attacks on the Sperm and Right Whale. . . Who Garnery [sic] the painter is, or was, I know not. But my life for it he was either practically conversant with his subject, or else marvelously tutored by some experienced whaleman."

[Ambroise Louis GARNERAY]. Victor-Jos-Étienne, dit de JOUY Vues des côtes de France dans l''océan et la Méditerranée. Paris, Panckoucke, 1823-1832. 3 parties en un volume in-folio, demi-maroquin rouge à coins, dos à 5 nerfs orné (Reliure de l''époque). Brunet III-582 / Polack 3745. I. (3f.)-24-20 pl. / II. 50-24 pl. / III. 34-20 pl. Splendide ouvrage sur les ports de France contenant une vignette de titre représentant l''artiste Ambroise Louis Garneray dans une barque à l''entrée du port de Brest dessinant la vue et 64 planches dessinées et gravées sur cuivre à l''aquatinte par ce dernier représentant les vues des ports français. C''est l''un des plus beaux recueils de planches qui aient été exécutés sur le sujet. Ambroise Louis Garneray (1783-1857), fils du peintre Jean-François Garneray, s''engagea à 13 ans dans la marine et assista à de nombreux combats navals jusqu''à sa capture par les anglais de la frégate la Belle-Poule où il était aide-timonier. Emprisonné 8 ans à Portsmouth, il se mit à étudier le dessin et la peinture, reproduisant les scènes qu''il avait eues sous les yeux. De retour en France, il se fit connaître par une Vue du port de Londres, devint peintre du duc d''Angoulême qui était grand amiral de France, et entra à la manufacture de Sèvres pour laquelle il exécuta de nombreux sujets maritimes. On retrouve dans sa peinture le regard du connaisseur, soucieux des détails et des couleurs. Le texte est une balade le long des côtes françaises en partant des limites de l''Espagne, en remontant vers le golfe de Gascogne, La Rochelle, les côtes bretonnes, normandes, du Nord, pour finir en redescendant le long de la Méditerranée. Il se veut à la fois descriptif de la beauté des lieux mais aussi de l''industrie. C''est ainsi que Saint-Tropez n''a point d''autre industrie et d''autre commerce que l''exploitation de la pêche et du thon et la vente de ce poisson… les mœurs sont douces et l''esprit cultivé… Superbe exemplaire avec les planches coloriées et gommées à l''époque. Le coloris est particulièrement frais et de très grande qualité. Reliure restaurée aux charnières avec accrocs aux coiffes, rares pâles rousseurs.

Ambroise Louis Garneray (1783-1857): Born in Paris in 1783, the son of Jean Francoise Garneray (himself a student of Jacques-Louis David). Most of the Garneray family were professional artists, but Ambroise (known as Louis) persuaded his parents to let him go to sea aged thirteen. Taken Prisoner on the French vessel 'Belle Poule' in 1806 and not given the privilege of parole he was sent to the prison hulk 'Prothee' in Portsmouth Harbour. From 1812 he was allowed to live ashore in a parole area from which he painted a series of views of prison hulks and shipping in Portsmouth Harbour, released in 1814. On returning to France Garneray had a successful career as a marine artist and became director of the Museum of Fine Arts in Rouen in 1833. The paintings offered for sale in this auction are from this series of works by Garneray, very few are known to exist and this is believed to be the largest single collection of this series of paintings in existence.

Ambroise Louis Garneray (French, 1783-1857), prison hulks in line ahead at Portsmouth Harbour, oil on canvas, 52cm x 104cm. Ambroise Louis Garneray (1783-1857): Born in Paris in 1783, the son of Jean Francoise Garneray (himself a student of Jacques-Louis David). Most of the Garneray family were professional artists, but Ambroise (known as Louis) persuaded his parents to let him go to sea aged thirteen. Taken Prisoner on the French vessel 'Belle Poule' in 1806 and not given the privilege of parole he was sent to the prison hulk 'Prothee' in Portsmouth Harbour. From 1812 he was allowed to live ashore in a parole area from which he painted a series of views of prison hulks and shipping in Portsmouth Harbour, released in 1814. On returning to France Garneray had a successful career as a marine artist and became director of the Museum of Fine Arts in Rouen in 1833. The paintings offered for sale in this auction are from this series of works by Garneray, very few are known to exist and this is believed to be the largest single collection of this series of paintings in existence. Similar views of Portsmouth Harbour by Garneray can be found in the National Library of Australia, Canberra (see E.H.H. Archibald, Dictionary of Sea Painters, 1980, plate 324), and a further three in the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London (work references: BHC1923, BHC1924 and BHC1925).
