A print of Pierre-Auguste Renoir's 1889 painting "A Young Girl with Daisies", 9 1/2 by 7 1/2" (18" by 16" in the attractive wood frame). The print is very glossy, as made---giving the impression of being on porcelain, or made as an enamel. The frame is likely of Mexican origin and is hand carved and gilded, making for an attractive combination. A work for the Renoir fan who cannot quite afford the real deal at a Sotheby's auction.

Oil and maybe sand mixed in, on paper backed by masonite, 19 3/4" by 24 1/4" (22 3/4" by 27 1/2" as framed), signed "CALZADA" at upper right. The subject is a Picasso-esque harlequin with a haunting, intense, soul-stirring stare, his hands clasped at bottom center, a mysterious drape separating face and hands, all by the noted listed Spanish artist and humanist, LUIZ SAENZ DE LA CALZADA (1912-1994)...

Oil on canvas painting of a dark-skinned woman, 26 3/4" by 7 3/4", unframed, signed at lower right by artist Destaalem Tadesse and dated there 2007. The long, narrow work will fit beautifully on a narrow wall in need of some color. The lady is holding a bowl of fruit, and a decorative background complements the figure nicely. Her angelic face seems almost as if taken from classic High Renaissance art...

This is a magnificent watercolor by a modernist artist who studied with Thomas Hart Benton. ….. From WIGMORE FINE ART: David Fredenthal (1914-1958) Raised in a Detroit tenement David Fredenthal left home at 14, yet completed high school by 15. While at Cass Technical High School, a teacher identified Fredenthal’s talent as an artist and convinced him to take his gift seriously. At 19 Fredenthal had a group of drawings shown at the Detroit Institute of Arts...

Large charcoal on paper drawing of a head, 23" by 19" (35 1/2" by 29 1/2" in oversized framing), signed at lower right "W. NASH" in all capital letters. This appears to be the head of a woman, perhaps Orientalist subject matter. I speculated that this might be a work by the noted Santa Fe, New Mexico modernist artist Willard Nash (1898-1943), but he did not sign like this, so far as I can determine, and the subject matter would be unusual for him...

An unusual and difficult to photograph trio: two heavy copper etching plates and one tin or zinc lithograph plate, the latter signed clearly Emil Kosa Jr., and one of the copper plates signed with reverse-etched conjoined initials that spell out EK and probably also "Jr". All were acquired by me at the same time, so, I believe it likely that all three are by the hand of the noted California artist EMIL KOSA, JR. (1903-1968)...

Antique, 18th century, Greek Orthodox icon triptych, finely hand painted on wood panels. The center panel, with a niche carved as a raised arch, depicts finely hand-painted the Mother Of God, "HODEGETRIA," with silver painted nimbate and two Angels holding the Virgin's Crown of the Queen of Heaven, flanked by Greek letters "MP OY," an abbreviation of the Greek "Mater Theos" (the Mother of God).

The Theotokos is dressed in an embroidered maroon veil and holds Jesus with her left arm...

Painting of two children hugging tenderly, 24" by 20", unframed, signed at upper left by the noted Brazil-California 20th century artist OZZ FRANCA (1928-1991). Franca is perhaps best known for his paintings of Native American women, and "Big Eye" children, but he also painted a wide range of other subject matter. The Askart listing says he painted, among other subjects, fantasy, dreams/mystery, female figure, still life, cityscapes, seascapes, and pure abstraction...

A landscape painting with feathery trees silhouetted against a luminous sky, a female figure walking at right with brown cow on the path which borders a creek, signed illegibly at lower right and dated there 1852.

It is not perfectly flat however, there being some roll to the canvas especially at bottom. Hanging on the wall none of this is ...
