East York Militia hand colored aquatint “Robinson” measuring 13 x 19“ dated April 1, 1814 Leeds England

Watercolor on paper, 8 1/2" by 17 1/2" inside the mat (13 1/2" by 22 1/2" in its very nice circa 1920 vintage frame), signed at lower right and inscribed there "Munich" by the well listed American artist CHARLES PAUL GRUPPE (1860-1940). The subject is a creek or small lake or pond at sunset. Born in Ontario, Canada, Gruppe was in Europe by age 20, where he explored France, Germany and Holland. I imagine that this work would date to that early 1880's period when he would have been in Germany...

Decorative old antique floral painting, 17 1/4" by 13 1/4" (20 3/4" by 16 3/4" framed), unsigned, featuring a variety of flowers, including a tulip, in a decorative metallic vessel, all against a dark background, in the style going back to 17th century Holland. It is hard to know exactly how old the work is but mid 19th century would likely be a good guess. The canvas weave is rather coarse, promoting the earlier look...

(ONE OF SEVERAL BY MERRIAM IN MY SHOP) An oil on canvas, 30" by 40", unframed), the subject a Southern California desert mountain wash and canyon, a cluster of desert palms grouped towards the center of the composition, the painting unsigned by undoubtedly by the talented California painter JAMES MERRIAM (1880-1951). This brushstrokes, size and subject matter of this particular example is very typical of the artist's work; I will stand by its being "a Merriam"...

This is an original 1924 etching, from the series of 55 etchings by the artist, in the book "Dingo", published that year by Ambroise Vollard Editeur. The edition was 350. "Dingo" featured dogs and their unique habits and characteristics. This image is adorable, and accurately illustrates how dogs interact with one another---the black dog at left lifting his right paw, the white sheep dogs on their guard, sniffing out the newcomer to their territory...

Fine pastel drawing of a seated young woman, on gray-blue paper, 18 1/2" by 12 1/2" (23 1/2" by 17 1/2" in mid century white frame), unsigned. The artist was clearly very skilled but unfortunately failed to sign the work. An elegant interior is suggested by the orange pottery vessel at far right. The young lady's clothing suggests that the work could be old----maybe early 20th century, despite appearing to be quite fresh. Once again, it is difficult to determine without a date or artist name...

Limited edition print of two sumo wrestlers titled TACHIAI by Clifton Karhu. The print is perfectly rectangular - any distortions of the paper are from photography.

Most would see this work as an etching or engraving and never give it a second look----but, it is, amazingly, an original ink on paper drawing (I guarantee that), measuring 23" by 16 3/4" (34 3/4" by 28 3/4" in dark old oak frame). Floating troubadours in their gondola serenade an upscale looking couple at right, as two other figures seem to be appreciating the pretty spring or summer day. The drawing is signed at lower right with what appears as "C J Meancon", the first letters conjoined. Su...

The artist created traditional horizontal format landscape works which appear frequently at auction in Germany, but I see only a very few portraits or genre works in the records.

This is a truly antique work, an oil on canvas unframed painting, 24 1/2" by 30", relined in the mid 20th century, apparently unsigned, the subject elegant ladies in a formal, upper class interior setting, the piece likely English or Northern European, possibly but I think far less likely American. The painting has seen some wear and tear in its roughly 180 years----a crudely repaired tear at upper center, some tearing at center in the lady's dress, with a 3/4" by 1/2" piece missing, another sm...

A small gouache or tempera painting on paper, 4 3/4" by 7 3/4" (11" by 14 1/2" in wood frame), the subject given in a title as "Supper Guest"; a saddled horse waits outside the fence in a chilly wintry scene in front of an old, unpainted weathered wood house, some lights hinting at more comfort inside.

For the true R. CRUMB fan, after/in the style of famed comic art pop culture phenomenon R. CRUMB, an original drawing and associated writings, marker on standard yellow legal paper, two sheets, each 11" by 8 1/2". The figure in the imagery is a self portrait. THIS IS NOT BY THE ARTIST HIMSELF; the imagery was skillfully copied, apparently in the late 1970's from a splash panel of 1972's "The Confessions of R. Crumb", from THE PEOPLE'S COMICS, page 43. The sheets don't look all that yellow in th...

Acrylic on canvas, 23" by 35" plus 5/8" wide black simple frame, signed on reverse with what could be "Tamworth" or "Ramworth" plus copyright symbol (unsigned on front). This is an op-art type piece with a definite three dimensionality to it.......the dots "float" over the rest of the pattern, casting "shadows".......it's quite the contemporary work and would look great in any modern setting. If anyone can identify the artist, please let me know. I would imagine from the professional handlin...

Old early 20th century painting of a thin line of trees bordering a waterway, executed in a lovely impressionist palette with excellent handling of light, 17 1/2" by 21" as framed, signed in red at lower right corner "Chatterton". Though found in Ogunquit, Maine, in an art colony area where the well known American artist Clarence Chatterton was known to have painted, the signature does not resemble that of Chatterton, who was a student of Edward Hopper. I am unsure if this might be by a relati...

A beautifully executed atmospheric and luminous watercolor painting of a classic scene of Venice, Italy, including the famous St. Marks Campanile and Santa Maria della Salute church, small boats parked along a wharf at sunrise or sunset. The unsigned work (and no information on reverse side) measures 9 1/4" by 16" (14 1/4" by 20 1/4" in gold metal frame). This work is poetic and certainly of a quality that would suggest a listed artist but without a signature we are stymied. A more traditiona...

This work, apparently unsigned, measures 9 1/4" by 13 3/8".
