Oil on thin board painting of a canal with figures, boats and adjacent sun-drenched buildings, possibly Venice, unsigned, measuring 6 7/8" by 11 1/2" (13 1/2" by 18" in attractive old frame).

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).

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...
