Two interesting works by Alfred Wallis, self-taught fisherman-artist from St Ives, will lead the Modern & Contemporary Art Sale; Sailboats and Fish and Steamboats and Lighthouse were purchased by the vendor’s grandmother directly from the artist. Heading a good offering of Northern Art in the sale are three works by Helen Bradley, who reinvented herself as an internationally acclaimed artist aged 75. Using a soft yet colourful palette and simple two-dimensional figures, she illustrated short narrative accounts based on early childhood memories of growing up in the Edwardian era. 

Other artists represented in the sale include David Hockney, Lynn Chadwick, Madeline Green, Norman Cornish, Brian 'Braaq' Shields, Sally Arnup, Kenneth Armitage, Henry Moore, Paul Nash and Howard Hodgkin.
