The Moat at Scarborough Castle
Gouache on board, signed and dated 1923
Image size: 13 1/2 x 17 1/2 inches (34 x 44.5 cm)
Contemporary silver gilt frame
Scarborough Castle stands on a massive promontory of rock that rises above the North Sea. It became one of the greatest royal fortresses in England and figured prominently in national events during the Middle Ages.
This painting depicts the moat leading up to the 12-century great tower, the centrepiece of the royal castle that was built by Henry II. Gordon Haslam's chosen perspective emphasises the perilous position of the ruins, high on the headland overlooking the seaside town of Scarborough. Indeed, to this day the ruins of the castle remain perched 250 feet above sea level, surrounded by rocky cliffs.

- Three Pyramids + Blue BallBy Alexander CalderLocated in Palm Desert, CA"Three Pyramids + Blue Ball" is a gouache on paper by Alexander Calder. The work is signed in the lower right, "Calder 73”. Although renowned for his innovative and groundbreaking sculptures, Alexander Calder started his artistic career as an abstract painter, preferring to use gouache. What is gouache? Gouache is a water-soluble paint – a type of opaque watercolor. As Calder returned to gouache painting towards the end of his life, he was now armed with a lifetime of experience as a sculptor. He explored the three-dimensional vocabulary of sculptural forms he had developed onto the two-dimensional surface of the paper. Certain shapes and colors recur throughout his gouaches and sculptures. Circles, ovals, and other geometric forms dominate the space. There is the same sense of energy and fluidity. The shapes do not sit on the surface but vibrate giving a feeling of movement in contrast to the static nature of painting. Like his sculpture, Calder’s gouache...Category
