Lot 1249. Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz (Wieliczka 1852–1916 Krakow)
Portrait of a society lady, half-length (probably soprano Jozefine Reszke), signed, dated Tad. Ajdukiewicz (1)879, oil on canvas, 132 x 87.5 cm, framed
Provenance:  continuous family ownership since 1892, Austria.
We are grateful to Izabela Wiercinska (curator at the National Museum, Warsaw) for her scientific assistance.
Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz was known in Warsaw as the portraitist of actresses and female singers. The lady represented here may be the singer Jozefine Reszke (1855–1891), who was a well-known soprano singer in Warsaw and who also had great success internationally. The singer performed in almost all notable opera houses, mostly in main roles. Highlights of her career included performances at the Parisian opera and as the prima donna in the Madrid Teatro Réal. She donated most of her earnings for her performances in Poland to philanthropic projects and was very popular amongst the people. The Krakow society, therefore, commissioned a portrait by Ajdukiewicz in her honour, which was then exhibited in the National Museum before her future husband, the manufacturer and banker Leopold Julian Kronenberg, exchanged another painting from his collection for it, keeping this portrait for his private collection in Warsaw.

Lot 34. PROPERTY OF A PRIVATE TRUST, RANCHO PALOS VERDES, CALIFORNIA

Julian Boncza Tomaszewski (Polish, 1834-1920)

Peter the Great visiting Cardinal Richelieu’s tomb in the Sorbonne, 1717
signed ‘J. BONCZA./ J. Tomaszewski’ (in Latin and Cyrillic, lower right); inscribed in French and German with title and artist’s name on old exhibition labels (on the stretcher)
oil on canvas
33 1/2 x 52 1/2in (85 x 133.5cm)

Born in St. Petersburg in 1834, Julian Boncza Tomaszewski (Бонча-Томашевский Юлий Осипович) trained at the St. Petersburg Academy of Art with Feodor Antonov Bruni and was first mentioned in 1856 for medals received for paintings based on the New Testament. In 1860 he left for Italy to complete his training and from 1861 until 1877 he lived in Paris, participating at the yearly Salons.

Boncza Tomaszewski considered himself Polish and adopted early on a Latin signature. Nevertheless, he was patronized by the Russian Imperial family, and his painting ‘The Three Rulers of Russia’ was acquired by the Emperor Alexander III and was part of the Imperial collection in the Winter Palace.

The present work depicts a historical scene of 3 June 1717, when the Russian Emperor Peter I, later known as Peter the Great, visited the Sorbonne as part of his extended European voyage. Legend has it that upon seeing the monument to Richelieu, whom the Emperor greatly admired, Peter embraced the statue and lamented that he would give half of his empire to the Cardinal, to instruct him on how to rule the remaining half.
The painting has been mentioned as having been exhibited in St. Petersburg but no concrete information is available.

Estimate $8,000-12,000. Bonhams (NY). 11/02/16 (1616250b)
