By: Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd. The Saturday, February 10th Canadiana auction features the Richardson, Blevins, Morawetz & Molson Foundation Collections and contains 329 lots of Canadiana, pottery, stoneware, textiles, art and Canadiana furniture. The February 11th Canadian Folk Art auction showcases works from the Maritime Provinces, Ontario and Quebec, and has 215 lots of folk art, art, Canadiana and decoys. "The Canadiana auction is a rare opportunity to acquire items from very prominent collections with varied focus," said Ethan Miller of Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd. "All the collectors had discerning taste and knowledge of their pieces. This auction has a wonderful selection of hooked mats and marquetry boxes as well as a mix of 19th century Canadiana furniture and accessories." He said of the Feb. 11 Canadian Folk Art auction, "What a mix, from 19th and 20th century Quebec Flat Plane carvings to a collection of birds by Yvon Cote to art from Maud Lewis, Joe Norris, Joe Sleep, Barbara Clark Fleming and Cyril Hirtle, to pieces from noted Nova Scotia and Quebec carvers like Charlie Tanner, Ian Fancy, Sid Howard, Chatigny and Alcide St. Germain." Maud Lewis has headlined numerous Miller & Miller auctions in the past, and this one will be no exception. On February 10th, her mixed media on beaverboard works titled Black and White Cat and Sandy Cove in Fall have estimates of $30,000-$35,000 and $25,000-$28,000, respectively. Her harbor scene painting titled Gulls at Harbor on February 11th should reach $20,000-$25,000 (prices are in Canadian dollars). While these are online-only auctions, bidders can tune in to the live webcast both auction days to watch lots close in real time.
