Art collections of the late Nathan Samuel Kaplan, Petrograd & Paris : to be sold by order of Mrs. Sonia Kaplan at unreserved public sale ... November thirtieth, December first, second, third, fourth ..
An auction catalogue issued by Anderson Galleries of New York in 1926 for the sale of the late Nathan Samuel Kaplan's art collections, held after his death and offered on behalf of his widow Sonia Kaplan. The plates show glass candlesticks and a covered goblet, white porcelain figures, a blue-and-white dish pair, and a set of small seated figures in cream porcelain with shell bases. A designer might take from them the restrained grey photographic lighting on plain tabletops, and the clear silhouettes of ornate historic tableware.
