Up for bid is an original photograph depicting an African sculpture of a man. The photograph is by artist, Erik Dalzen, and is titled "African Sculpture Tall Man Ironwood Giacometti." The photograph measures 8x10 inches (including border). Numbered 1/10 from a limited edition of 10 prints in this size. Signed, numbered, and dated on the back.
This photograph features a sculpture of a tall man*. The sculpture was hand-carved in South Africa, by local artisans, from ironwood, a dark wood renown for its incredible hardness. The stylized figure is reminiscent of Alberto Giacometti's surrealist figures through the similar usage of attenuated limbs and elongation of the form. Unlike Giacometti's sculptures, however, the figure is represented in traditional tribal wear, displays a protruding belly and a pensive stance. While much of Giacometti's work, predating his surrealist figures, exhibits an 'ethnographic' style, this piece could indicate continued African influence throughout his career. Regardless of whether it did in fact influence the master, it is a beautiful piece of art.
*This description refers only to the subject of the photograph–a sculpture. The actual sculpture is not included in this auction. If you are the winning bidder you will receive a photograph in the mail, shipped in a flat envelope.

Hendrik Petrus Berlage is one of the most important renovators of Netherlands' architecture at the end of the 19th century. He is born in Amsterdam in 1856. After failing artschool he studies architecture at the Zürich Institute of Technology under Gottfried Semper from 1875 until 1878, after which he travels extensively through Europe. Back in Amsterdam in 1882 he starts working at the office of Theodorus Sanders. Together they design several buildings in neo-Renaissance style, including a first design for the Amsterdam commodities exchange. In 1884 they form a partnership. From 1889 Berlage is working on his own, and designs in the then fashionable style of Jugendstil. In that year he presents himself at the World Exhibition in Paris with the design for a mausoleum, a plea for eternal peace. A first hint at Berlage's utopian socialistic ideas. In a wave of political naivity he later even makes a design for a mausoleum for Soviet dictator Lenin. A more important consequence of his socialism is the idea of Community Art (Gemeenschapskunst); artists of various disciplines working together on art that serves the community. Several of Berlage's important designs were made in this spirit.
Berlage is best known for his final design for the Amsterdam commodities exchange. The style in which this building is built becomes known as Rationalism. Important elements of this style are the honest use of materials (all used materials should be recognizable), clarity of construction (no unnecessary ornamentation) and craftmanship in the execution. Brick is the preferred material of use, although natural stone is used for parts that need accentuating. Walls are usually completely flat, with the sparse decorative elements flush with the walls. This building is considered to be the beginning of modern architecture in the Netherlands, and although representing only a phase in Berlage's career, it remains a major influences until well into the 1950's. Several protestant architects, like Tj. Kuipers, design churches in a style close to Berlage's style. The traditionalistic architects of the Delft School, especially A.J. Kropholler, continue this style long after Berlage has abandoned it, and develop it even further using Berlage's ideas. On the other hand the Amsterdam School in its first years is partially a reaction to Berlage's assumed conservatism, with an expressionistic style that definitely breaks the rules of honest use of materials and clarity of construction.
A visit to the U.S.A. in 1911 has a great impact on Berlage's work. The work of Henry Hobson Richardson, Louis H. Sullivan, and especially Frank Lloyd Wright become important influences until the end of his career.
Later in his career Berlage becomes more active in town planning. His plan for the enlargement of Amsterdam-South (1914-1915) is the most important project. Berlage also designed furniture, and even wrote several plays. Berlage died in Den Haag (The Hague) in 1934, to where he had moved his office in 1913.

Chicago, officially the City of Chicago, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Illinois, and the third-most-populous city in the United States. With an estimated population of 2,705,994 (2018), it is also the most populous city in the Midwestern United States. Chicago is the county seat of Cook County, the second-most-populous county in the US, with a small portion of the northwest side of the city extending into DuPage County near O'Hare Airport. Chicago is the principal city of the Chicago metropolitan area, often referred to as Chicagoland. At nearly 10 million people, the metropolitan area is the third most populous in the United States.
Located on the shores of freshwater Lake Michigan, Chicago was incorporated as a city in 1837 near a portage between the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River watershed and grew rapidly in the mid-19th century. After the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which destroyed several square miles and left more than 100,000 homeless, the city made a concerted effort to rebuild. The construction boom accelerated population growth throughout the following decades, and by 1900, less than 30 years after the great fire, Chicago was the fifth-largest city in the world. Chicago made noted contributions to urban planning and zoning standards, including new construction styles (including the Chicago School of architecture), the development of the City Beautiful Movement, and the steel-framed skyscraper.
Chicago is an international hub for finance, culture, commerce, industry, education, technology, telecommunications, and transportation. It is the site of the creation of the first standardized futures contracts, issued by the Chicago Board of Trade, which today is the largest and most diverse derivatives market in the world, generating 20% of all volume in commodities and financial futures alone. Depending on the particular year, the city's O'Hare International Airport is routinely ranked as the world's fifth or sixth busiest airport according to tracked data by the Airports Council International. The region also has the largest number of federal highways and is the nation's railroad hub. Chicago was listed as an alpha global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, and it ranked seventh in the entire world in the 2017 Global Cities Index. The Chicago area has one of the highest gross domestic products (GDP) in the world, generating $689 billion in 2018. In addition, the city has one of the world's most diversified and balanced economies, with no single industry employing more than 14% of the workforce. Chicago is home to several Fortune 500 companies, including Allstate, Boeing, Caterpillar, Exelon, Kraft Heinz, McDonald's, Mondelez International, Sears, United Airlines Holdings, and Walgreens.
Chicago's 58 million domestic and international visitors in 2018 made it the second most visited city in the nation, as compared with New York City's 65 million visitors in 2018. The city was ranked first in the 2018 Time Out City Life Index, a global quality of life survey of 15,000 people in 32 cities. Landmarks in the city include Millennium Park, Navy Pier, the Magnificent Mile, the Art Institute of Chicago, Museum Campus, the Willis (Sears) Tower, Grant Park, the Museum of Science and Industry, and Lincoln Park Zoo. Chicago's culture includes the visual arts, literature, film, theatre, comedy (especially improvisational comedy), food, and music, particularly jazz, blues, soul, hip-hop, gospel, and electronic dance music including house music. Of the area's many colleges and universities, the University of Chicago, Northwestern University, and the University of Illinois at Chicago are classified as "highest research" doctoral universities. Chicago has professional sports teams in each of the major professional leagues, including two Major League Baseball teams.

The Chicago White Sox are an American professional baseball team based in Chicago, Illinois. They compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) Central division. The White Sox are owned by Jerry Reinsdorf, and play their home games at Guaranteed Rate Field, located on the city's South Side. They are one of two major league clubs in Chicago; the other is the Chicago Cubs of the National League (NL) Central division.
One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the franchise was established as a major league baseball club in 1901. The club was originally called the Chicago White Stockings, but this was soon shortened to Chicago White Sox. The team originally played home games at South Side Park before moving to Comiskey Park in 1910, where they played until Guaranteed Rate Field (originally known as Comiskey Park and then known as U.S. Cellular Field) opened in 1991.
The White Sox won the 1906 World Series with a defense-oriented team dubbed "the Hitless Wonders", and the 1917 World Series led by Eddie Cicotte, Eddie Collins, and Shoeless Joe Jackson. The 1919 World Series was marred by the Black Sox Scandal, in which several members of the White Sox were accused of conspiring with gamblers to fix games. In response, Major League Baseball's new Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis banned the players from Major League Baseball for life. In 1959, led by Early Wynn, Nellie Fox, Luis Aparicio and manager Al López, the White Sox won the American League pennant. They won the AL pennant in 2005, and went on to win the World Series, led by World Series MVP Jermaine Dye, Paul Konerko, Mark Buehrle, catcher A. J. Pierzynski, and the first Latino manager to win the World Series, Ozzie Guillén.
From 1901 to 2019, the White Sox have an overall record of 9283–9215 (a .502 winning percentage).
