NEW ORLEANS, La. – New Orleans history and lore will be front and center at Crescent City Auction Gallery’s two-day estates auction slated for June 20-21, in the firm’s gallery at 1330 St. Charles Avenue. Offered will be five artworks each from the legendary New Orleans painters Clementine Hunter and Alexander Drysdale, plus items from a home once owned by Anne Rice. Anne Rice (b. 1941), still a resident of New Orleans, is the author best known for her series of novels The Vampire Chronicles, two of which were made into major motion pictures. In all, 1,322 lots will cross the auction block, in a wide array of categories, to include French period furniture, original artworks (much of it by regional artists), clocks and watches, mirrors, sterling silver, three Russian icons, a collection... Start times will be 9 a. m. on June 20 and 10 a. m. on June 21 (Central time). The names Clementine Hunter (1886-1988) and Alexander Drysdale (1870-1934) are instantly recognizable to New Orleans residents. The five Clementine Hunters in the sale (all from a single-owner collection) will include a circa 1980 signed and unframed oil on board titled Courtroom Scene (est. $2,000-$4,000). and a circa 1975 signed and unframed oil on board titled Ginning Cotton (est.
Past the sprawl of traffic and tightly spaced suburban homes in Prince’s Bay in Staten Island, the forgotten grandeur of another way of life can be glimpsed. There, a three-story mansion built in the Greek Revival style sits on a high patch of ground, hidden behind iron fences and amid tall trees.
“Did I mention I also collect clocks. As he spoke, two gnomes adorning a 13-foot Amish mechanical clock banged their hammers on an antique brass chime. For his tasting room, Berghold decided to concentrate on pieces from the 1880s and 1890s, the height of the Gilded Age. America’s aristocracy lived large and had the fancy furniture to prove it. Berghold, who turns 77 next week, had the tasting room built around architectural elements such as doors, windows and cabinetry salvaged from demolished mansions and other... “Those are all cabriole legs from antique grand pianos. Ten-foot carved cherry doors with leaded glass sidelights open into the tasting room. The 26-foot Eastlake walnut bar once graced a major Philadelphia hotel and, once Prohibition went into effect, a brothel. Refugees from a forgotten church, saints in stained glass windows peer over the adjacent barrel room, which includes its own Victorian pulpit (perfect for delivering toasts). Sculpted by Vittorio Caradossi, a marble sea nymph graces an alcove in the tasting room. Nicknamed “Last Call” by Berghold, an imposing whiskey cabinet boasts the carved wooden doors of a 1913 Cadillac hearse.
