FLAGG, James Montgomery (IN THE STYLE OF) (American, 1877-1960). Satyr and Nude Bookends. Not dated. Paint and plaster. Largest 7 ? h x 7 w x 5 ?" d. The Male satyr is believed to be?of actor Michael Whalen, who is known to have modeled for Flagg. We have not found any examples of previous plaster work. These came from the Estate of Michael Whalen. These were purchased at the same time as the drawings in this auction. The style of these are in line with his naughty nudes and lurid men. There is no perfect way of knowing if he did them as they are unsigned but they were in the same collection.
