Addario Lung Cancer Foundation and the University of California San Francisco Thoracic Oncology Lung Cancer Program (Lots 239-250). This cane handle is one of twelve lots offered from the Vertical Art Collection, formed by an American private collector who chooses to remain anonymous. On November 30th a larger group of works from the same collection will be offered for sale at Christie's New York. These sales reveal but a glimpse of a collection that only became known more broadly in 2008 with the publication of Vertical Art: The Enduring Beauty of Antique Canes and Walking Sticks. The startling tableaux by photographer Umberto Barone depicts canes of semi-precious stones inset with diamonds within a dazzling panorama of canes of diverse periods, styles and materials.
