Maritime Oil on Canvas of a Ship Under Full Sail

Fine Art:Paintings
A lovely oil on canvas of a ship, I believe it's a 17th C or 18th C bark or schooner, under full sail with a brisk wind. There are cumulus clouds, and a couple of other sailing ships in the distance on a choppy sea. This fine oil is done with a sure hand by a highly skilled artist. The impression of a windy, somewhat overcast day is evocative of salt spray and fresh air. Very nice. The ship is flying a Polish flag, and the signature, although hard to read, shows the last four letters of the ...

Pennsylvania "Standard" Barn with Overhang - Watercolor Landscape

$145 USD Offers ConsideredPennsylvania "Standard" Barn with Overhang - Watercolor Landscape

Fine Art:Paintings
A large watercolor of a Pennsylvania "Standard" barn, as pictured and described in Eric Sloan's "America." There are no leaves on the trees, but a few early spring flowers are peeking up out of the ground. The air appears thin and crisply cold, and the sky is a bit moody, but spring can't be far behind. A nice, evocative watercolor. Condition is good. I have not opened the back of this painting, and there are a few specks that have gotten in there over the last 50 years or so, but really nothing ...

The beautiful antique frame is an intricate, compound gilt molding, very lavish (one element is even water gilded), and the perfect foil for the simplicity of this straightforward image. Condition is very nice. There has been a bit of flaking at the ...
19th C French Oil on Canvas - Portrait - Romantic Winter, Snow, or Christmas Scene

$3,450 USD Offers Considered19th C French Oil on Canvas - Portrait - Romantic Winter, Snow, or Christmas Scene

Fine Art:Paintings
Unapologetically romantic, this beguiling young woman dressed in a scarlet fur trimmed cape and hood. She holds her typically Victorian winter muff, decorated with blue violets, and smilies out at us across the years. I wonder, are those violets a harbinger of spring, or a badge of faithfulness? The Victorians, after all, were versed in 'floriography', the language of flowers which they used for secret coded messages. The listed French artist, Maurice Jacquet, was born in Paris in 1877. A pupil ...
Treachery on Ice in Grisaille - F. Holland 1920

$595 USD Offers ConsideredTreachery on Ice in Grisaille - F. Holland 1920

Fine Art:Paintings
A delightful watercolor painting of a young ice skater escaping the pursuit of a goateed villain by strewing sand on the ice. Well rendered and painted in grisaille with expressive characters and action, this painting has the look of an illustration, certainly suggesting an embroiled narrative, but I'm not sure what the whole story might be. Condition is fine with no problems to report. The piece is beautifully framed with a linen mat and inner gilded filet adding a bit of gravitas to a spirited ...
SOLD Mid Century Oil on Canvas in Fauvist Style

SOLDSOLD Mid Century Oil on Canvas in Fauvist Style

Fine Art:Paintings
An interesting painting of a group of people laden with heavy burdens struggling to the top of a hill. Their destination is a mystery, but the effort of the climb is symbolic in itself. There is a sense that the people are fleeing. The trees curve around them in a protective embrace, and the geometric indication of many fields as blocks of color on the slope suggests a long journey. Condition is fine with no problems to report. The frame looks to be Mid Century, as do the canvas and stretchers. ...

SOLD Beach Scene w/ Fishing Shacks & Lobster Pots - Oil on Board - Landscape

SOLDSOLD Beach Scene w/ Fishing Shacks & Lobster Pots - Oil on Board - Landscape

Fine Art:Paintings
A lovely landscape painting depicting a beach with cottages or fishing shacks and lobster pots. There's a lot of detail packed into this piece; all painted in a loose, impressionistic style I believe this is a New England scene. The pile of old-fashioned lobster pots in front of one cottage are reminiscent of what coastal New England once looked like, and I found the painting in New England. The marks of the waves on the sand suggest a path and draw ones eye down the beach. Imagine walking right ...
