Attributed to Elsa Niemeyer-Moxter, German, fl. early 20th century- Dance of the Seven Veils; oil on canvas, indistinctly signed 'Els... Mo..ter [?]' lower right, feigned tondo, 103 x104 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Elsa Moxter, also known as Elsa Niemeyer-Moxter, was a designer and illustrator who is recorded in Munich during the first half of the 20th century. She is referred to in art journals of the time as a designer of cabinet figurines, or “Vitrinenpuppen”, and as an illustrator, including for Jugend, a Munich-based art magazine. Her illustrations provide witty and acutely observed glimpses into turn-of-the-century city life, and several examples are held in the collection of the Lenbachhaus, Munich. The artist’s affinity with graphic design and illustration is apparent in the present painting, with its strikingly stylised central figure and bold application of colour. Niemeyer-Moxter also appears to have been influenced by the works of other artists active in Munich at the same time, including Adolf Münzer (c.1870-1953) and Reinhold Max Eichler (1872-1947), both of whom are known to have supplied illustrations for Jugend magazine. The painting depicts the Biblical figure of Salome dancing, captured in the midst of her performance before King Herod. While it is not given a name in the Bible, Salome's dance became popularly referred to as the 'Dance of the Seven Veils' during the late 19th century in arts and literature, reputedly after Oscar Wilde first used the title in his 1893 play 'Salome'.

DODE DE LA BRUNERIE (Guillaume and family). Important collection of approximately 850 letters and documents. 18th-19th centuries. A very important collection, rich in information about the marshal and his family, as well as the history of the Dauphiné region, where the marshal was a prominent figure. - Dode de la Brunerie (Guillaume). Set of around 130 letters to his family, including 2 from Egypt, 3 from the Marseilles lazaretto on his return from the Egyptian expedition, 2 from the Austrian campaign (October 1805 and January 1806), one from the Prussian campaign (November 1806, "... since the battle, there has been no more resistance from the Prussians... we have taken almost all the corps of the Prussian army, wholesale or retail.... it's a real hunt, we're hunting them down on all sides like wild beasts, and they're surrendering like sheep"), one from the Polish campaign (1807), 3 from Spain (1809-1810, "those enraged men from Saragossa who gave us so much trouble for two months have finally tired of a war whose relentlessness is unparalleled; they've surrendered... I do not regret this circumstance, because I took an active part in it, and I believe I contributed something to the success..."), 2 from the Russian campaign (Königsberg and Elbing, December 1812), one from Italy (March 1814, "You would like to see this Italian army in France, but it is much more useful here. It contains two enemy armies twice as numerous..."), one from Spain (1823, "We continue our triumphal march amid acclamations, dances, songs and demonstrations of all kinds of joy carried to the last degree of exaltation..."). I thought that seven years of war and occupation of Spain by the Franks and the English... had greatly changed the ideas of the Spanish people and considerably reduced the influence of the clergy on their opinion... Cities are rare in this country, and enlightened people are even rarer in cities. So the influence of the clergy had no difficulty in making this ignorant and stupefied people cry 'Long live the absolute king'..."). With a few autograph notes and drawings concerning private affairs. - Correspondence received, mainly by Guillaume Dode de La Brunerie, some 230 letters from French and foreign personalities: Grand Marshal Henri-Gatien Bertrand (1841), Minister of the Interior Lazare Carnot (1815, secretary's signature, concerning the dispatch of a copy of the Description de l'Égypte), General François Joseph Kirgener de Planta (1809-1810), Minister of the Interior Camille de Montalivet (1837), General Nicolas Oudinot (1849, thanks for congratulations on the expedition to Rome which he commanded in chief), general Joseph Rogniat (1823), general duke Ignacio Jaime de Sotomayor (1811, chamberlain and grand master of ceremonies to King Joseph Bonaparte), politician and historian Adolphe Thiers (1841, concerning the loan of documents relating to the history of the Revolution and Empire), future marshal Jean-Baptiste Philibert Vaillant (1849), and so on. Around a hundred of these letters congratulate Guillaume Dode de La Brunerie on his elevation to the rank of Marshal (1847). They are addressed to him by the future Marshal de Castellane, Baron Pierre-Paul Denniée, Charles Auguste Frossard (future general, future aide-de-camp to Napoleon III and future governor of the Prince Impérial), General Gaspard Gourgaud (Napoleon I's former companion in exile on St. Helena), General d'Empire Jean-Gabriel Marchand, General Auguste Moreau, future Marshal Adolphe Niel, Admiral Albin Roussin, future Marshal Jean-Baptiste-Philibert Vaillant, and more. Some of these letters concern the dispatch of his lithographed portrait or the writing of biographical notes. - Family correspondence: around 300 letters, including almost 110 from the marshal and a few from Count Guéheneuc, marshal Lannes' father-in-law; correspondence concerning the marshal's nephew, Guzman Dode, etc. - Miscellaneous papers, 18th-19th centuries, approx. 120 items: livre de raison et de comptes of Jean Dode, the marshal's ancestor (first half of the 18th century, bound in an in-folio parchment volume, completed by other hands), the marshal's will, the maréchale's will and inventory of her possessions, notarized documents, business letters, etc. - Printed matter, nineteenth century, approx. 70 stapled booklets: Guillaume Dode de La Brunerie, rapports et opinions à la Chambre des pairs de 1826 à 1836 (several duplicates); Auguste Moreau, Notice sur le vicomte Dode de La Brunerie, maréchal de France, 1852, 2 stapled copies, each with handwritten dispatch; a few booklets by other authors, mainly on the subjects ab
