$525 USD Offers ConsideredWILLIAM JOSEPH SCHALDACH (1896-1982) American well listed wildlife art watercolor of bird
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Wildlife And Sporting Art
Original watercolor on paper, 6" by 10" (12" by 16" as framed), signed at lower right "William J. Schaldach, Jr." and inscribed at left "To Nellie, with love, from Billy". This could be an oriole but I can't be sure of that identification! This is a very clean work and it appears not to have been opened since the 1960's or 1970's. A few tiny black spots visible in some photos, I just noticed, are on the glass and not the art itself. The artist is a well recognized painter and printmaker of ...
$395 USD Offers ConsideredBENJAMIN MORAN DALE (1889-1951) American illustrator art detailed watercolor painting of colonial scene
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Watercolor directly on Whatman illustration art board painting, of a military ceremony, including the presentation of the flag, in front of a colonial American house, in colonial times, measuring 13 1/4" by 18 1/8" inside the mat (21" by 26" as framed). The painting is signed at lower right corner by noted artist BEN DALE (1889-1951). Dale is listed in a number of reference works. He was a commercial illustrator (including magazines like Ladies Home Journal) who apparently worked in the ...
$800 USD Offers ConsideredANTHONY THIEME (1888-1954) early stage design gouache drawing dated 1920
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
The highly impressionistic American oil paintings of Anthony Thieme, noted Cape Ann, Massachusetts artist, are among the most sought after works in today's auction scene, some bringing prices well into the mid five figures or higher. Those works are typically scenes of Rockport, Gloucester, Florida and far flung locations like Italy and Central America. It's rather less known that Thieme in his earlier years worked in creating stage designs. This rare early drawing, signed at lower left and ...
$350 USD Offers ConsideredCLARA N. MADEIRA (-1929) listed American art dramatic mountain village watercolor painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Watercolor on paper of European looking houses in a dramatic setting below a sharp mountain peak, measuring 20 1/2" by 18" inside the mat, signed at lower left in a flowing hand "Clara N. Madeira". The artist is listed in Fielding's, Mallett and Davenports, with a 1929 death date, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on her. Obviously she was talented. Fielding's does mention that she exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in 1925; Davenport's gives 1929 as the date of ...
$395 USD Offers ConsideredERNEST SCANES (1909-) listed Michigan artist watercolor painting of winter skiers
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Midwest Regional Art
Watercolor on heavy paper laid on board, 30" by 22", unframed, signed at upper left corner in ball point pen "Ernest W. Scanes, 3/25/66, Otsego Remnant". Scanes is best known as a Michigan artist, certainly a Midwest artist, but also, due to his illustration of books and ads, he is known as an illustrator as well. I have previously owned a 1947 gouache, also of skiers, and am currently offering a charcoal drawing by him in my shop. Evidently, a relative of the artist resides or resided here in ...
$395 USD Offers ConsideredAmerican folk art large Victorian 19th century watercolor stil life painting DETAILED!
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Still Life
Watercolor still life of wildflowers and some cultivated ones, in a vase of the period, large size at 24" by 18" inside the mat, 35" by 28 3/4" as framed, unsigned, in the nineteenth century tradition that traces its roots back to stencil type paintings. This is not one of those. I would date it to the period from 1850 to 1890 or so. Detail is painstaking and extreme; this artist ws no amateur. There are bluebells, forget-me-nots, roses, fuchsia, some kind of lily, some kind of daisy and others ...
$375 USD Offers ConsideredSTEPHEN SEYMOUR THOMAS (1868-1956) California art watercolor painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Watercolor on paper (12 1/4" by 17 7/8"--19" by 24 1/2" including mat, fillet and frame) by important American artist Stephen Seymour Thomas. Born in Texas, he has been associated with that state, but Thomas also studied and painted in New York with William Merritt Chase, as well as in Paris with Constant. The artist moved to Southern California in 1915 and painted there until his death. His works are in museum collections internationally; portraits of royalty and other important figures were a ...
$235 USD Offers ConsideredHUGH PEEBLES 20th century American or English art watercolor painting of small boats along the coast
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Watercolor on paper scene of sailing boats in a coastal landscape, possibly of English origin but one boat displays an American flag, 8 1/2" by 12" inside the mat, 12 3/4" by 16 3/4" as framed, signed at lower right "HUGH PEEBLES". I don't see a listing for the artist but in googling the name I see a watercolor of a harbor dated 1908 was offered two years ago by an English auction house, so, that might provide a clue. To me the work looks more American. It is skilfully executed and is in ...
$250 USD Offers ConsideredHudson River style 19th century gouache and watercolor landscape painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Hudson River School
Watercolor and gouache on paper of a backwater creek/lake surrounded by feathery trees, 12 1/2" by 19 1/2" plus 3 1/2" of mat and frame, unsigned, most likely American. The work is in very good shape save for some age browning of the paper most visible by comparing to the top inch or so which evidently at one time was hidden under a mat. The artist was obviously skilled in watercolor. A very peaceful scene for your wall. Shipping wizard figures are guesstimates. SEE HUNDREDS OF OTHER WORKS NOW ...
$200 USD Offers ConsideredColorado art 1924 watercolor painting "Colorado Springs"
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Western American Art
Watercolor on paper, unframed, unsigned, dated 1924 and titled "Col Spgs", showing old houses against a mountain backdrop. This is a beautifully executed work by an artist that I would imagine is listed, but, he didn't sign his work. The sheet measures 12" by 17 3/4". There is a sketch of a man's profile on the reverse. If you live along I-25, or even if you don't, you'll appreciate this fine old drawing from Colorado. Shipping wizard figures are guesstimates. SEE HUNDREDS OF OTHER WORKS NOW IN ...
$350 USD Offers ConsideredR. HAL BURRISS (1892-1991) listed American watercolor Southern art painting of fishing boats at the dock
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Southern Art
Watercolor on paper of shrimp trawlers in a harbor, 18" by 24" and about 3" of mat and frame on a side, signed at lower left "R. Hal Burriss". This is a clean, fresh watercolor by a noted American artist associated with Florida and Louisiana. The work reminds a bit of that of Rolland Golden, a popular New Orleans, Louisiana artist who often worked in watercolor, depicting similar subject matter. The artist lived to nearly the age of 100 years, leaving behind a legacy of watercolors and oils, a ...
$325 USD Offers ConsideredNELSON COOK WHITE (1900-1989) Marine art clipper ship watercolor painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Marine Art
Watercolor, 9 7/8" by 14" inside the mat (16 1/2" by 20 1/2" as framed), signed at lower right "N. White". This is a work showing, no doubt, the clipper ship Joseph Conrad, berthed at the Mystic Seaport in Connecticut. The clipper was built in Denmark in 1882 and was renamed as the Joseph Conrad. It was built strictly as a training ship. The artist painted a lot of marine subject matter, and a number of these works have appeared at auction in New England. Shipping wizard figures are guesstimates ...
$225 USD Offers ConsideredAmerican still life floral watercolor painting circa 1940's
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Still Life
Watercolor on paper, 14" square and 3 1/4" frame and mat, unsigned, of flowers in a vase. This is the work of a skilled and likely listed artist but I don't see a hint of a signature. It was purchased near Baton Rouge, Louisiana and the reverse framing paper shows what appears to be a Houston, Texas address. Condition is excellent with no stains or foxing. Shipping wizard figures are guesstimates. SEE HUNDREDS OF OTHER WORKS NOW IN MY SHOP.
$195 USD Offers ConsideredKENNETH RAY WILSON (1936-) San Francisco artist oil on paper painting wildflowers
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Oil on Arches gessoed paper, 22 1/2" by 30" (art itself), signed at lower right by San Francisco Bay Area artist KENNETH RAY WILSON. This is a decorative work, very detailed and skilfully executed. It's in perfect condition, though the photos are taken through that nasty circa 1960's or 1970's non-glare glass----which is broken at right. So the actual work is much sharper than the photos would indicate. I would ship without the glass. The artist was in the Bay Area during the 1960's through the ...
$175 USD Offers ConsideredColorful American impressionist watercolor painting circa 1930's or 1940's
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Watercolor on paper, unsigned, 14" by 18" (19" by 23 1/2" as framed/matted), American, dating likely from the late thirties to the mid fifties. It's obviously by a talented artist, considering the way in which the flowering trellis vine has been depicted. The work will have to go as anonymous, unfortunately. There is a Somerville, New Jersey label on reverse from the framing outfit, from 1959, naming an Earl Potter from Potterville, NJ, but I don't believe this is the artist's name. Condition is ...
$375 USD Offers ConsideredModernist abstract watercolor painting signed by listed artist EVA BERNSTEIN (1865-1956)
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Abstract Art
Advanced modernist watercolor on paper, 14 1/4" by 21" and 2" of frame all around, signed at lower right "EVA BERNSTEIN". According to a Vermont relative who has provided me with details of the artist's life, after seeing this on line, this was likely executed in the New York City area, circa late 1940's. The artist was born in Vilnius (present day Lithuania) but was in the U.S. at a fairly young age. Artistically gifted, she traveled to Paris for art purposes. Later in life, she had a ...
$875 USD Offers ConsideredAmerican vintage 1875 watercolor painting young girls and mid 19th century buildings
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:19th Century American Art
Watercolor on paper, unsigned, undated but likely dating from the period 1865 to 1885, 15 3/4" by 11 3/8" inside the mat, (27 1/2" by 22 1/2" as framed), showing two young schoolgirls in the yard of a brick and wood shutters style mid nineteenth century home, such as would be found in Boston's Beacon Hill, or parts of New York City. There's a lot of skill in this drawing, and the artist was likely trained and probably could be found in reference books as a listed name, had he signed it. There's ...
$750 USD Offers ConsideredNEVILLE SOTHEBY PITCHER (-1959) well known English marine artist gouache painting clipper ship on the high seas
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Marine Art
Watercolor, ink and gouache on paper, 9 3/8" by 14 1/4" inside the mat (14 1/2" by 19 1/2" as framed), signed at lower right by the noted English marine painter NEVILLE SOTHEBY PITCHER (?-1959), and titled there "In the Roaring Forties". This is rather typical of the artist's work. The ship is struggling in rough seas of the southern hemisphere. The skill of the artist's hand is evident in the carefully drawn rigging. Pitcher's works in oil have brought large sums at auction in New York and ...
$775 USD Offers ConsideredFREDERIC S. COZZENS (1846-1928) noted American marine artist watercolor painting of steam sail ship
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Marine Art
This is a small delicate work in excellent condition, 4 1/2" by 9 1/8" inside the mat (11 7/8" by 16 3/4" as framed), signed at lower left by noted American marine painter FREDERIC SCHILLER COZZENS (1846-1928). The subject is a late 19th century steam/sail ship, with three large masts and two steaming funnels at mid ship. The artist is known for his maritime subject matter, but also painted other subjects in a variety of media. He was based out of Staten Island, New York but also was associated ...
$875 USD Offers ConsideredHAROLD GUENTHER BREUL (1889-1965) listed American Irish horse race watercolor painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Equestrian Art
Watercolor on paper, 15 1/2" by 25" inside the mat (23 1/2" by 31 1/2" as framed), by listed American artist HAROLD BREUL, showing "An Informal Irish Hunt Race", as the 2 1/2" square remarque drawing below informs us. This is a beautifully executed work by an illustrator artist known for his equine subject matter. Breul was the son of listed artist Hugo Breul (1854-1910). He was a member of the American Watercolor Society and exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Condition is ...
$100 USD Offers ConsideredMiniature watercolor painting of winged fairy and blueberries
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Fairy Art
In the style of the Victorian fairy painters from England, here's a decorative little work of art, executed in the modern day, 2 1/2" by 3 1/4" inside the mat (8 1/8" by 8 7/8" as framed), on a somewhat larger piece of heavy textured paper. It looks as if it could have been an illustration for a book. This should appeal to you if you appreciate miniatures or "fairy art". I opened this once and the paper is a bit larger than the opening in the mat, and there are color patches painted on the ...
$125 USD Offers ConsideredAbstract art 1968 signed original painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Abstract Art
This is an item that's difficult to photograph to advantage, but it's an interesting modern abstract nevertheless, measuring 18" by 25" with 2 1/2" of linen liner and thin silver gilt frame. It's signed at lower right with what appears to be "John Radge" (or "Rodge"), and dated at lower left 10.11.68. This is executed on professional Rafaello Fabriano paper. It's frustrating that I can't seem to find a listing for a name anything like this. Enjoy it as a decorative piece of art. Found in the San ...
$225 USD Offers ConsideredFRANCES ELIZABETH PRATT (1913-) American listed art gouache paintings of pony
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Modern Art
Gouache on paper mounted in one mat, one painting 2 1/2" by 2 1/2", one 3" by 3 3/8", the size of mat 9 1/2" by 7 1/2", and the work is inscribed "To Tony" at lower left and signed and dated "52" at lower right and "49" just below the lower drawing. The artist is listed in Who Was Who and a number of other reference works. She studied at the Art Students League, Art Institute of Chicago, and with Hans Hofmann. Her works are included in the collections of the Brooklyn Museum and the Corcoran. ...
$550 USD Offers ConsideredJOHN EDWARD HELIKER (1909-2000) ink drawing by important American realist painter
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Ink or wash on paper drawing of an old junked car in an overgrown field with a nearby shed and tree, 6 3/8" by 8 1/2" inside the mat, 11 1/2" by 12 1/2" as framed, inscribed at lower right "Yonkers", (and something above that which I cannot make out), dated "36" and signed JE Heliker. This is a small but excellent drawing by a master artist. Heliker was a student of Boardman Robinson, Kenneth Hayes Miller, Kimon Nicolaides, Thomas Hart Benton. According to the askart writeup he began as a cubist ...
$475 USD Offers ConsideredFREDERIC GRANT (1886-1959) watercolor classic still life painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
Colorful watercolor on paper of a ceramic figure with copper pot and summer fruit, measuring 6 1/2" by 5 7/8" (13" by 12 3/4" as framed), likely the work of noted American artist FREDERIC GRANT (1886-1959). The work is apparently unsigned, but, on the original framing paper appears in a modern hand "BY FREDERICK GRANT"; originally there was also an old framer's sticker from Chicago but it has apparently dropped off since I purchased this. See the askart listing, and the images thereon which show ...
$120 USD Offers ConsideredSigned watercolor painting autumn trees by a pond
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
This is a decorative, peaceful scene of late autumn by a pond or small lake, signed at lower left "Sydney Cooper". I'm not familiar with the artist though I'm sure it's not the major 19th century English master. The painting is unframed and measures 22" by 15 1/2". Condition is good, with even light overall oxidation (browning) of the fairly heavy paper, and some very light water stains at the very edges at top center and left, all easily hidden by a mat. Evidently a previous owner lived in ...
$650 USD Offers ConsideredVICTOR CASENELLI (1867-1961) well listed Amercan art Michigan artist forest interior watercolor painting
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:Midwest Regional Art
Watercolor on paper, vertical format at 17 1/2" by 6 1/2" plus one inch likely original frame, circa early 20th century, signed at lower right by listed Midwest artist VICTOR CASENELLI. Casenelli is best known for his Henry Farny or John Hauser-style western paintings of indians and tipis and horses, and those works generally bring the highest prices at auction. From Michigan, he obviously knew the woodlands as well, as is demonstrated by this beautifully executed work on paper. The watercolor ...
$225 USD Offers ConsideredGibson Girl lovely original 1906 American watercolor painting oval shape
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor
For a lady's dressing area or bedroom perhaps, here's a sweet original painting of a young woman, in watercolor, in the style of Charles Gibson, the famous illustrator in early 20th century America who created ink drawings of young women, who have come to be called "Gibson Girls". The style was widely copied in the first quarter of the century, sometimes quite successfully. This is such a work. It measures 13 1/2" by 10 1/2" in an oval shape, in a narrow frame. Written on the reverse in old ...
$1,400 USD Offers ConsideredTHOMAS POLLACK ANSHUTZ (1851-1912) noted American artist watercolor drawing with family and Christie's provenance
Fine Art:Drawings:20th Century American:Watercolor:19th Century American Art
Watercolor drawing on paper of two figures with a distant building that resembles a mosque, measuring 8 1/8" by 6 3/8" (21 1/4" by 17" as presently framed), not signed but bears reverse notation by Elizabeth R. Anshutz, the artist's daughter in law, and stickers from Christie's New York indicating that this was offered in the sale of November 19, 1991, and, more recently, Skinners. Anshutz is considered a major American artist, a pupil of no less than Thomas Eakins, and in turn a major teacher ...| Items 1 - 29 of 29 | Page 1 of 1 |
