    SOLD – Nicholas HORNYANSKY (1896-1965) ARCA OSA ‘Fort Niagara’, aquatint

    ,
    SOLD Nicholas Hornyansky (Hungarian/Canadian, 1896-1965) ARCA, OSA, CPE, FIAL, ACPS ‘Bridal Veil; Ball’s Falls’ aquatint, framed (image):  4 3/8” high x 5 5/8” wide (impression):  5” high x 6 3/8” wide (frame):  9 3/8” high x 10 ¼” wide Notes: “Historic Old Fort Niagara / An Ancient Gateway to the West / On that corner of the peninsula in New York State, looking north over Lake Ontario, looking west across the mouth of the Niagara River, is this historic fort, first built in 1726 under the direction of Louis Thomas de Joncaire by Gaspard de Lery under a French appropriation of approximately six million dollars. It was called a chateau so as not to arouse the suspicion and hostility of the Indians, but it had walls four feet thick, huge interior stone arches to take up the repercussions of cannon fire, and inside was a well as a precaution against siege. Cut stone for window and door casements was shipped from Frontenac (Kingston) but the timber came from the woods nearby. Between 1750 and 1759 the fort was converted into an elaborate stronghold with its system of earthworks, moats and powder magazine. Sir William Pitt had said in parliament that, next to the citadel at Quebec, Fort Niagara was the most important post in America and must be taken at all costs. The English assault came in July ’59. The battle took place south of the Fort and is known in history as La Belle Famile. Over six hundred soldiers, eleven officers and their wives marched out of Fort Niagara as prisoners of war. The French had lost the key to the west and a new era had begun with Sir William Johnson as commander at the Fort. The English held Fort Niagara after the Treaty of Paris, until 1796, when the United States took possession. So, as the engraving shows, Fort Niagara has been under three flags. The task of rehabilitating the Fort was completed in 1934 and is one of the finest works of restoration in America.”  ~ Louis Blake Duff Scroll Down for more Info

    Nicholas HORNYANSKY (1896-1965) ARCA OSA ‘Home of the Colonial Advocate’, aquatint

    Nicholas Hornyansky (Hungarian/Canadian, 1896-1965) ARCA, OSA, CPE, FIAL, ACPS ‘Home of the Colonial Advocate’ [MacKenzie King House, Niagara-on-the-Lake] With a view of Queenston Heights in the background. aquatint (image):  4 ¼” high x 5 3/8” wide (frame):  8” high x 9 ¼” wide Notes: “The Home of the Colonial Advocate. // THIS THE HOME of the Colonial Advocate, a quite insignificant newspaper and yet it shook the country. Sometimes there is dynamite in newspapers. The gingery, wiry, peppery little Scot, William Lyon MacKenzie, had come from Dundas where he had some connection with the grocery trade, to found a newspaper on the frontier at Queenstown. On May 20, 1824, the first issue came out. That day saw something more than the launching of a newspaper. It was really the launching of a man on a career that was to carry him through storm and battle, insurrection and exile, and at last place him under the shadow of the gallows. He was to come home again after the fires had burned low to end his years in tranquility, and to enjoy at least some of the reforms to which his life and fortune had been devoted. // This building was MacKenzie’s home at Queenston, and, as has been said, the home of the Colonial Advocate, but the paper was printed there for only a few issues. An early Advocate remarked that a contract has been issued to have the first twelve issues printed in another shop for MacKenzie had no printing equipment as yet. The editor  assured his readers in the issue of October 7 that it had been half printed at home and half printed in the American Republick, but did not say where. The Advocate of October 14 was the first completely home product. // In the American Republick, but where? Across the river was the Lewiston Sentinel, founded in 1828 by James O. Daley. Of the sentinel and the first fifteen issues of the Advocate one can say they were alike in this: same size page, same five columns to the page; same 48-point caps in the heading; same 24-point old English in the sub-head; same 8-point body type. There seems no reason to doubt that the first fifteen issues came from the presses  of the Sentinel. For a month the Advocate was at home, in the building shown in the picture – then came York.” ~ Courtesy, Louis Blake Duff Scroll Down for Further Details

  • A blonde in a white dress sits in the grass and rests against a tree, she is surrounded by lush foliage and flowers which she holds in her hands and which form a diadem in her hair; her gaze is directed towards the viewer. A river runs through the background, separating her from the forested far shore and a light glow, like the flush of her skin, has begun to illuminate the clear blue skies from beyond the mountainous peaks.

    after Cuno von BODENHAUSEN (1852-1931) by Victoria Adelia MAYBEE, ‘The Song’, porcelain plaque

    ,
    attrib. Victoria Adelia Maybee (Canada, 1868-1944) after Cuno von Bodenhausen (1852-1931) ‘The Song’, c. 1910 porcelain tile (actual) 7 3/8” high x 5 ½” wide (framed) 8 ½” high x 6 5/8” wide Notes: This refreshing plaque depicts a blonde in a white dress sitting in the grass and resting against a tree surrounded by lush foliage, some of which she holds in her hands and which forms the diadem in her hair. Her gaze is directed towards the viewer. A river runs through the background, separating her from the forested far shore and a light glow, like the flush of her skin, has begun to illuminate the clear blue skies from beyond the mountainous peaks. The flowers and white highlights are raised adding texture and further enhancing the perspective and dimensionality of the careful composition. Omitted is a nightingale, present in the von Bodenhausen original and the namesake of the painting, one of a pair with ‘The Tale’ forming ‘Voices of Fairyland’. Here Maybee has chosen to direct attentions towards the viewer, as is found in the originals companion, holding the viewer with the sitter in that brief moment that belongs “to the song of the bird on the branch over her head.” Scroll Down for more Info

Happy the fort that never sent out a shot and never received one! Such is a Fort Mississauga at old Niagara. It looks out to see golf greens spread about it; to the east to see the town on whose edge it has stood for a century and a third; to the north to see the blue waters of Lake Ontario. // The Fort, with five-foot walls, was built following the War of 1812-14, largely from bricks brought from the ruins of the town which had been destroyed in the conflict. This accounts for the large number of broken bricks mortared into the walls. // William Kirby in his Canadian Idylls has thus described the Fort: Its walls thick as a feudal keep with loopholes slashed, Contain the wreck and ruin of the town. // The earthworks at Fort Mississauga are in the shape of a star and are of an earlier date than the Fort itself, having been thrown up probably in the early years of Simcoe’s governorship. // A restoration in relatively recent years put a cottage roof (the first one was flat) on the Fort, and dormer windows, making Mississauga undoubtedly the only fort in the world thus decorated.”  ~ Louis Blake Duff
