CARL KAHLER, oil painting on canvas, late 19th century, woman with gray thorobred race horse. Kahler was a well known listed American artist (Benizet), famous for his beautifully rendered horse and cat paintings.
The female figure was a popular model at the time of the painting, and was known as the "IVORY SOAP GIRL." She also modeled for advertising for Coca Cola. Perhaps you have seen her on old trays.
Born in Linz, Austria in 1855. Kahler studied at the Munich Art Academy and in Paris. During the 1880s he was well known in Germany and Austria. An itinerant artist, in 1886 he sailed for Australia where his works were well received and in demand. While there, he was awarded the commission for four paintings of the Melbourne Cup (racing event) and others in New Zealand. Upon moving to San Francisco from NYC in 1891, he opened a studio where he specialized in figure painting.
Condition: excellent, original gilt Art Nouveau period frame.
Measurements: 4 ft height x 3 ft width

Incredible floral realism is presented in this magnificent painting from the mid century artist, Y. Takaguchi, dated 1981.
This floral study of FUCHSIAS is so vivid and realistic it is hard to believe this is an oil painting on canvas, and not a photograph.
In the manner of O'Keefe, Takaguchi has captured the essence of floral beauty. I am unable to find any data on this artist.

ALEXANDER DZIGURSKI AMERICAN ARTIST, 1911-1995 original oil on canvas. Painted early in the artists career while living in Italy, a fine rendition of the Grand Canal. This is a rare offering, as the majority of this California artists work is California related.Alexander Dzigurski, who is known for his seascapes, landscapes, and some portraiture, is associated with the art of California, although he was born in the farming community of Backa, located in Stari Becej, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His extensive US travel can be seen in his works from the Smokies, the Grand Tetons, Mt. Shasta, the Rockies, Glacier National Park, New England, and other coastal areas. His paintings can be found in the Franklin Mint Museum of American Art in Pennsylvania, the Republic Bank of Dallas, The Michigan Bank of Chicago, Illinois, the Ravenswood Bank of Chicago, Illinois, and at the Caterpillar Tractor Company in Peoria, Illinois.

A beautifully painted oil on canvas, signed and dated, Maria Therese Bru.. 1908. The serene and lovely young woman is ready to kiss a white dove, Perhaps this is symbolic for the hope of peace. The painting is done in soft muted blues and greens, and I have just had it custom framed with an exceptional wooden and gessoed frame which really compliments the blue and green tonal hues.
The signature is faded, and I do not know the last name of the artist. The painting was purchased in Uruguay, mostlikely Spanish.

Measurements: 13 Inches x 17 Inches
Year: Early 20th Century
Condition: As found, no repairs or damage. No retouching. Recent custom wooden frame

Unusual and very rare REVERSE PAINTING ON MIRRORED GLASS, circa late 18th early 19th century, Chinese Export, of a delightful young Chinese child playing with a cricket. The painting, done on mirrored glass is an exceptional find not only in age and quality, but subject matter. Children were very rarely depicted in these period paintings, as the market was made to appeal to merchants and sailors visiting China on long journeys.
The subject, a young boy with bound pigtails is richly dressed, charming and winsome. The soft colors of the portrait are pleasing to the eye. Perfect to blend with most decorating schemes.
The original beaded wooden frame is hand chamfered and in good condition, measuring 12.5 " x 16.5 "
The painting was purchased from a prominent old estate in California.
Condition: Very good. Wear to silvering on mirror, appropriate to period.
Measurements: 12.5 x 16.5 Inches, framed
