That large work about 71" by 87", hangs in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.

An old oil on gray board painting of a stone bridge over the Seine River in central Paris, in high autumn. The work measures 9" by 12" (11 3/4" by 14 3/4" in attractive maybe 1930's frame). The signature at lower left appears to be "E Turner", the "E" placed on top of the "T". If I am reading this correctly, there does not appear to be a listed artist that would correspond. In any event, the work is excellent, and by a trained hand.

A beautifully painted 1927 oil on canvas of flowering plants in ceramic pots on a small terrace or deck, signed at lower left with what appears as "Yos. Bell" followed by "Mallorca 1927". This would have been painted during the optimistic years between the wars, on Spain's Balearic Islands. The unframed piece measures 26 1/2" by 31 1/2".

An unstretched oil on canvas of a rocky forested coast, presumably in Finland, signed at lower right and dated there 1936 by listed Finnish artist TOIVE JYRINKI (1895-1988). The canvas measures 13 1/4" by 18 3/4". There does not appear to be a lot of information on the talented artist. The scene is reminiscent of much 19th century American art such as paintings of the rocky coast of Maine. Condition is vintage good, needs to be mounted and framed.

Oil on wood panel of a lady under a portico or trellis high above a coast like Amalfi in Italy, signed at lower right with initials "EC" and dated there "03". The work measures 12" by 7 1/2" (18" by 12 3/4" as framed). On the reverse of the panel is written in pencil old handwriting "E. W. Clawson 431 Pacific St.".

Oil on canvas painting of a young blued-eyed blonde woman in circa 1940 hat and provocative gauzy top, 24" by 18" (31" by 24 1/2" framed), signed at lower center by listed French artist CESAR VILOT. There does not seem to be a biography of Vilot but his works of sprawled female nudes and ballerinas show him to be a talented painter of women. This work somewhat resembles the work of artist Jean Gabriel Domergue. Condition is excellent; frame shows some wear especially at left. Really a beauti...

PIERREL. I do not see a formal "listing" for the artist, although I have encountered other works by this talented hand. The painting should bring back memories of voyages past, and should please any true Francophile. The condition is good overall, with some min...

A circa 1900 painting of two ladies who have apparently come to see the local priest in a courtyard, they pleading their case vigorously. The priest is accompanied by a sleeping cat. The table top with its interesting details is beautifully painted. The work, on canvas (relined), is signed at lower right "A. CALCAGNA". This is likely a shortened form of "Calcagnadoro" (for Italian painter ANTONINO CALCAGNADORO, 1876-1935)---the Artprice auction results site shows the full name, and the "Cal...

A fine example of the renowned still life paintings produced by French artist ROBERT CHAILLOUX (1913-2006), measuring 13" by 16" (20" by 23" in gold frame).

A beautiful colorful post impressionist oil painting by Charles Camoin (1879 - 1965). Oil on canvas signed lower right and noted painted in Paris.

A circa mid 1960's oil on canvas painting of a dark-haired young woman, 10 1/2" by 8 3/4" (18" by 16" in a gold frame that appears to me to be hand carved and leafed). The artist signed at upper left with what looks like "Roth". There is a Montmartre kitsch look but I cannot be sure of a Paris origin. Condition is good though I note the alligatoring of the paint, especially in the young lady's hair (this is a kind of splitting pattern in the paint, not truly cracking, caused by a rapid paint d...

Original oil painting on canvas by famed British marine painter Rodney J. K. Charman (born 1944). This work depicts one of the Nantucket Island lighthouses. It is signed l.l. and dated 1980. In excellent original condition. With a new Italian frame.

A beautifully impressionist work featuring a plus-size woman seated outside in a park in the nude, partially shaded on a hot day by a large shrub.

The artist, who worked his entire career in the tradition of French Impressionism, pointedly ignoring modernism, has created here a beautiful work, with the beauty ...

A circa 1920 oil on canvas of apples and sprigs of blossoms on a tabletop, 18" by 27 1/2" (26" by 36" in original frame), signed at right center "A. Landsberger" (or, many variations thereof could be possible). The signature, in red in old Germanic hand, is on top of an apparently older, incised signature that is quite different (and, very difficult to make out). The work is very nicely executed by a trained hand, and is in excellent antique condition, with no tears or flaking. The frame has a...

Oil on board painting of the famous Matterhorn in Switzerland, two small wooden structures in the foreground and elegant trees at left completing the composition. The work is signed at lower right "M M Cole" and is dated there 1981. On the reverse of the frame is written "Miriam '81", so, we likely have an American woman as the artist. Measurements are 18" by 22" and 21 1/2" by 25 1/2" as framed. The artist has really done an especially impressive job at depicting the towering peak, arguably ...

An excellent oil on canvas example of the painting of Spanish artist EDUARDO PISANO (1912-1986), measuring 25" by 21" (31" by 27" in silvery attractive framing/liner).

Furthermore, she says there is an artist's name that appears to be "Semyon Gu......",...

A mid century oil on canvas painting by the hand of a listed French artist who lived for 102 years, RAYMOND PERREAU (1874-1976). The work is handled in an impressionist manner but also possesses a mid century, contemporary air. It measures 32" by 16", 39" by 23" in black wood frame with liner, and the artist signed at lower right where he dated it 1961. Upon close examination one can see how the paint is meticulously worked; the artist used a lot of colorful underpaint which he selectively al...

A rarely seen work by a well-known artist of Romania, LETA MIRONESCU (1896-1981), the subject an autumn forest painted in greens and yellows and browns. Hidden among the vigorous impressionist brushwork on the old paperboard is the signature of the artist, in the paint, at lower left, where she also dated the work 1926. Mironescu received education in art in Romania and then traveled to Vienna, Munich and Paris for further training. Between the wars she achieved major recognition around the c...

Impressive oil on canvas painting of a mountainous European lake landscape with historic ancient buildings reflected in the waters, signed at lower left G. PATTY. Photos of internationally famous Lake Como in northern Italy certainly resemble this scene. The uncommonly beautiful work, 26" by 32" (34" by 39" in much later, mid century frame), is painted in predominant blues, greens, and whites. The impressionistic handling suggests a very talented artist, yet, I am unable to locate a painter of...

PAIR of decorative oil on board paintings executed circa 1970, in the classical style of the 17th or 18th century, each 6 3/4" by 5" (12" by 10" in the frames), each signed "H. Muriel". The paintings are affordable and will nicely fill that small wall in need of some art. Frames have the slightest of wear, the paintings are in excellent shape.

A large oil on canvas (26 1/2" by 38 1/2", and 32 1/2" by 44 1/4" framed) painting of a forest of evergreen and birch near a picturesque winding creek, likely in eastern Europe, signed at lower left somewhat indecipherably (probably a listed artist). The name may be Lithuanian or other Baltic state. The work is beautifully painted but has darkened with surface soiling and old varnish. There appear to be a few areas which were the subject of test cleanings (by tree at right and at upper left s...

Oil on canvas, " by " (" by " framed), the subject a peaceful glen deep in a forest, painted in a luminous style reminiscent of the American Hudson River School, likely Fairy Glen in North Wales, signed at lower right by the noted well listed English artist WILLIAM MELLOR (1851-1931). Mellor was a highly prolific (I see over 1,200 auction records) artist, born in Barnsley, England. He traveled widely, painting often in Wales and Yorkshire. Today his peaceful classic paintings of sensitively r...

Oil on wood panel landscape in the Netherlands, 13" by 10" (22" by 19" in old, likely original frame), signed at lower left corner by the listed American artist and illustrator EDWIN H. KIEFER (1860-1931). This antique painting features a classic windmill, and a woman classically dressed, carrying a basket, in the left foreground. The late 19th century work is very dirty; a cleaning would work wonders. There is a long vertical crack in the panel at upper left as shown. Kiefer was born in Por...

Large painting of a protest at night in front of an official building, 44" by 31" (50" by 37" framed), unsigned. This is a French work that is most certainly by a listed artist, but he/she remains anonymous. The complexity of the foreground and details of the facade are indications of the skill of the artist. The painting is of a large and impressive size, and would make a decorative addition to a traditional interior. The condition is good overall, with a small area of unrepaired loss as sh...
