A small etching, 5 1/4" by 4" (13 1/2" by 10 1/2" in wood frame) featuring the famous familiar front view of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, the foreground including the famous bookstalls and a number of figures, signed in the plate (in reverse) "Slanska" and with penciled "Eau-fort original/Slanska" in the lower margin. The name seems to be of Czech origin, and I have not located information on the artist. There is evidence of very slight hand coloring in blue, yellow and pink. The dark green ...

Oil on canvas painting, 16" by 20" (21" by 25" framed), the scene a California desert landscape, painted by the noted artist KATHI HILTON (1939-2021) in the year 1993. The artist has signed in the wet paint at lower right, and on the reverse, she wrote "To Lenore Hudson/Painted at Ebell Club/Feb. 1993/May the joy of the desert allure bloom in your heart {I believe that is what the last line reads, not certain}/Best always/Kathi Hilton". Hilton is the daughter of the well regarded California pa...

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...

A rare first edition of Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) book "A Tramp Abroad", as found in apparently scarce original leather covers rather than the more commonly seen cloth. The book has the ad after page 631 and "Moses" rather than "Titian's Moses" in the frontispiece, indicating an early state. I am not a book specialist so am pointing out characteristics that I see suggest rarity and early state. The book's front cover is almost completely separated, and pages up to the "Illustrations" list a...

Oil on canvas good-sized painting, 21" by 29", (29" by 36 1/2" in gold frame), the subject a small lake or pond with adjacent floral bloom, almost as in a botanical garden or groomed park, that bloom reflected beautifully in the water, signed at lower left by the late California artist KASANDRA F. MARTELL (1925-2019). Martell was born near Mexico City and by the late 1950's was very entrepreneurial for a woman of her day with four children. After meeting an American businessman she moved to Ca...

A rare painting by the well-listed Norwegian woman artist SIGRID LOUISE BOLLING (1853-1917), the subject a scenic fjord with towering peaks in the background, some with snow, hulking above man's humble houses on a rise at left. The work, signed but not dated at lower left, is oil on wood panel, measuring 10" by 13 1/2" (18" by 20 1/2" framed). Bolling was born in the Oslo outer borough of Vestre Aker, Norway, her father an officer and landowner, her mother Baroness Wedel-Jarlsberg. The young ...

A colorful little original oil painting on canvas, not stretched but laid simply behind a hand-made paper mat then placed in a colorful decorative picture frame, no glass, 9" by 7" as framed, signed at left by artist and dated there 1996. No doubt a tourist art piece, it is quite charming, reminding of Haitian and other Caribbean folk art. Condition is excellent.

A well-executed old watercolor (and a little gouache) painting of roses, glass vases and a Chinese blue-white plate, circa 1930, signed by artist ADELAIDE STRIGNER. Strangely, despite the quality of the work, I have not located a name of a listed known artist that would correspond. The piece measures 11 1/2" by 20" inside the mat and 21 3/4" by 30 1/2" in its period frame, which has some chip losses especially at right. There is an inconsequential old cut in the paper at upper right field. M...

A copy of the hard cover book "VASARELY", by Gaston Diehl, published 1976 by Crown Publishers, Inc., New York, printed in Hungary that year. The book was translated from the French by Eileen B. Hennessy. Condition is typical used; acceptable; cover soiling, pages 7-8 are completely loose, with others nearby loose but still attached. The book describes the evolution of the fascinating art of Victor Vasarely, known as one of the so-called Op Art practitioners, though obviously as we see herein,...

A silver plated shallow dish by the famed French firm CHRISTOFLE, 6 5/8" diameter, about 7/8" high. The marks on the bottom show this to have been produced between 1935 and 1983, most likely towards the middle or later portion of that period. The piece is toned and has surface scratching as shown in the images.

A pastel and watercolor on paper drawing of a Native American Indian, unframed, 30" by 20", signed at lower right by the artist, the signature appearing as "F. Davis", and the adjacent date as 3/84. The artist was talented. Condition is good, lower left corner is separating from the Crescent art board backing, there having been some slight moisture exposure there at some time in the past.

A pencil signed etching, 8 3/4" by 10 1/2" inside the mat, 13 1/2" by 17" in simple strip frame, circa 1920, titled "The Bailers" (bailing out a water-filled, sinking dinghy at the docks), by Massachusetts-born American impressionist artist GEORGE ELMER BROWNE (1871-1946). Browne was born in the sea-going town of Gloucester, which was later to evolve into a famous art colony that was noted for the impressionism that flourished there. Browne studied first in Boston and later in Paris under Jule...

A black and white photograph of a man supine on a bed in a simple or even stark interior, signed and stamped on the reverse, and with edition information (6/25) by the noted, widely exhibited American contemporary photographer, MARSHA BURNS (1945-). The photograph is untitled and not dated. Burns was born in Seattle and received early training in the fine arts at the University of Washington, which was followed by study at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. By 1969 she had decided to de...

By the French Symbolist artist MAURICE DENIS (1870-1943), this is a remarque proof on Chine Volant paper, edition of 260, from the year 1939. The print, Cailler #169 in the definitive catalogue raisonne of Denis' prints, is from the "Five Poems" by Francis Thompson. Condition is good with no tears or major stains, though there are some imperfections such as small discolorations and some rumpling of the paper in the margins and a light horizontal crease there below and to the lower right of the...

In superb extra clean/fresh condition, after a circa 1964 work by the famous Surrealist SALVADOR DALI (1904-1989) a print on silk "El Arbol de la Penitencia, Purgatory, Canto XXIV", 36" by 36" as mounted to a stretcher. Some say these are scarves; I am not certain so call it printed on silk or silk-like material. Somehow this has emerged without a smudge or pulled thread; I note only the vestiges of what may have originally been horizontal folds, at center as shown. An example brought approxi...

A hand signed copy of the book "Lions and Shadows", 1947, by the noted Anglo-American novelist, playwright, screenwriter, autobiographer and diarist CHRISTOPHER ISHERWOOD (1904-1986). The 8 1/2" by 6" blue hard cover copy, published by New Connections, Norfolk, Connecticut is in acceptable good but not fine condition due to sunning of the spine and other evidence of cover wear. There is no dust jacket. Dedicated in blue ink as shown to "Don Carter", in February 1949. This was acquired at an ...

After the 1938 Cubist painting "Mother and Child, Marie-Therese and Maya", by the French master PABLO PICASSO (1881-1973), this is colorful imagery transferred to silk or silk-like material, mid to late 20th century, measuring 19" by 19" (26" by 26", as presently framed as a display item). The black frame is worn but the scarf is in excellent condition. **The shipping figures refer to the piece going as presently framed; postage would be minimal if removed from frame and sent folded.**

Andrew Wyeth would certainly be considered one of America's top watercolor artists of all time. His works have fetched in the millions at auctions. Here is an opportunity to own a more humble work by this master: a pencil signed example of his 1981 "Sea Running", a collotype print after his original painting, in a limited edition of 300 examples (this one numbered #134). Measuring 12 1/4" by 15 1/2" inside the mat and 19 3/4" by 23" in simple light oak frame, it is a fine piece of Americana, ...

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 online search for an artist name that matches this has been unsuccessful; perhaps I am misreading it. There is a very small puncture at bottom center, ea...

After the well-known French artist THEOPHILE STEINLEN (1859-1924), this is a 1987 quality lithograph or photo-lithograph reproduction of the artist's 1894 lithograph "A La Boudiniere", originally created to publicize an exposition of his works at the gallery by that name. The work measures 23" by 31 1/2" (29 1/2" by 37 1/2" as framed). This popular imagery featuring the cat, for which Steinlen was well known, has been reproduced in recent years in giclee and lithograph forms. This particular ex...

A striking small size abstract painting, mixed media (I think gouache and some oil or acrylic), 10" by 20", signed at lower right and again on reverse backing "GEO. JUNG". I thought at first that this might be a "pen name" for George Chann, a well-known and important Chinese-American artist who created similar-looking works, but now from further research I believe this to be by a California contemporary artist, there being at least one work online similarly signed. The piece will make for a mo...

A hand-colored engraving after William Henry Bartlett (1809-1854), titled "Eastport and Passamaquoddy Bay", 1839, engraved by C. Cousen, printed by George Virtue of London, England. Tiny foreground figures relax on a bluff overlooking the panorama, framed by a feathery tree at right and close-in island. William Bartlett was a well-known artist at the time, his topographical scenes very sought after. They proved popular works for transfer to engravings which could be widely distributed. This ...

Etching on paper, 10" by 7 1/4" inside the mat, 16" by 12 3/4" framed, signed at lower right in pencil by well-known New Orleans artist EUGENE F. LOVING (1908-1971). The print is titled at lower left, "The Marchand Court Old New Orleans", and bears the artist's notation "Ed/200" at lower center. Loving was a familiar figure on the New Orleans art scene for decades, painting and executing prints as well. A teacher as well, he was something of a father figure of sorts to other artists in the regio...

A HAND SIGNED copy of the 1990 soft cover book by Martha Kingsbury, University of Washington art history professor, "George Tsutakawa", describing the life journey of one of the treasured artists of the Northwest School at mid century. Tsutakawa signed in marker on the title page, adding "Seattle 1990". The book, 11" by 9" and approximately 160 pages, includes black and white and color photographs illustrating Tsutakawa's life and work. That work included woodcut prints, watercolors, painting...

A late 20th century intricate gouache painting of the Indo-Persian, Mughal School, sometimes referred to as Indian Persian, very much in the style of the commonly seen miniatures, measuring 21 1/2" by 17 1/2" in the ornately patterned style of frame that often accompanies such works, that pattern extending even onto the edges, as photos show. The painting is in excellent condition. The detail of these sorts of paintings is impressive. An amazing amount of hand workmanship is required to make the...

A contemporary original watercolor painting dated 2009, the subject very much a fantasy summary of the Peruvian Andes----including whitewashed old colonial buildings and stone foot bridges, traditional garb, bowler-hat wearing women carrying their babies on their backs, and the quintessential llamas of the region. The work, measuring 9 1/2" by 13 1/2" (20" by 24" in interesting dark faux bamboo frame) is signed at lower right "E Garces '09/Cusco Peru". No doubt this piece came to the US in the...

Painting on paper, either oil or acrylic, the subject a young boy, from the "Georgia Series", signed at lower right and again on the reverse backing by well listed American artist HARLEY MANLIUS PERKINS (1883-1964). The work, measuring 30" by 24" and 37" by 30 1/2" as framed, likely dates to about the late 1940's or early 1950's. Perkins was born in Bakersfield, Vermont, his mother's lineage traceable directly to Governor William Bradford of the Plymouth Colony. He received art training in Ve...

Vintage circa 1950's oil on canvas autumn landscape of a creek surrounded by trees, signed lower right by listed California artist TERESA (TESS) RAZALLE-CARTER (1888-1972). Measurements are 24" by 30" (30 1/2" by 36 1/2" framed). The scene could possibly be somewhere in the San Gabriel Mountains or Santa Monica Mountains. The artist was born in early Los Angeles and lived in Southern California her entire life. She lived in Pasadena for many years, becoming strongly associated with Santa Monica...

A beautifully executed mixed media drawing of famous Spirit Island, one of the most photographed places in the Canadian Rockies, at Maligne Lake in Jasper National Park, Alberta, signed at lower right by talented artist Don Slote and dated there 4/1972. The work, primarily in pastel, with some pencil, measures 12" by 15" (19 1/2" by 22 1/2" framed). Condition of frame and art is excellent and fresh, belying its fifty years. Compare to online images of beautiful Maligne Lake and Spirit Island,...

An oil on board painting, (19" by 16", and 27" by 23" framed), of a French landscape, by the French mid century impressionist artist ROGER ETIENNE (1922-2011). The painting is signed at lower left by the artist and dated there 1975, and at lower right he wrote a dedication to previous owners "Pour Balli & John". The scene, an avenue leading into a small town or village, is at once impressionist and also Expressionist, with strong brush strokes especially in sky, and some points of bright color. ...

Oil on board impressionist oil painting of architecture on dramatic coastal mountains, signed at lower right in red "A. Dickert" and titled there "Camogli". The coastal town renowned for its views is popular with tourists visiting the Liguria coast around Genoa. The work measures 13 1/4" by 10 1/4" (21" by 18" in its original black wood frame). The artist was born in 1878 but there appears to be little biographical information. He painted generally impressionist works, many of eastern German...

Attractive old antique print titled "Public landing. Cincinnati", identified by writing on backing as having come from Ballou's Pictorial Companion, 1855. measuring 11" by 15" in its old dark (probably stained walnut) frame with gold fillet. Condition appears fresh and excellent overall. The coloring is hand-applied. An interesting addition to your historic Ohio River or Cincinnati home or office.

Watercolor painting of an old-fashioned water/wishing well in a garden setting, early years of the century, signed lower right KO ASHIWARA. There is an askart listing for the name but an internet search has yielded little information; apparently he had some connection to New York so was an individual of Japanese ancestry working in America. The work is executed by an obviously talented artist. Measurements are 13 1/2" by 10" (20 1/2" by 16 1/2" in old black wood frame with gold beading (wear ...

A most elegant, sophisticated, eye-catching composition in shades of primarily yellow and some tan, along with abundant white, circa 1970's I am thinking, signed at upper right "Lopes" or "Lopez". The possibly Latin American work is somewhat of a mystery as a search of listed artists by these names does not appear to yield an obvious match; and also the media used are uncertain, possibly water-based gouache or tempera, with some sand or other granular material employed to give an interesting te...

Colorful oil on canvas unframed painting (24" by 20") featuring lily pads on a woodland pond, signed at lower right by listed California artist JOHN MARTIN HISS (1891-1972). It likely dates to about the 1950's. Hiss was essentially a talented hobbyist artist; he is best known as a physician and orthopedic surgeon who devised remedial treatments for disorders of the feet. The work is in excellent vintage condition. I note an inconsequential hairline scratch at mid right.

An original HAND WRITTEN LETTER AND ENVELOPE, to a Miss Dorothy Irwin on Hollywood Blvd., written entirely in green ink, postmarked Sept. 28, 1942, around the peak of the career of famed American actress BETTE DAVIS (1908-1989), whose career spanned some 50 years. Davis starred in Marked Woman, a film that is regarded as one of the most important in her early career, then portrayed a strong-willed 1850s southern belle in Jezebel (1938), which won her a second Academy Award for Best Actress and ...

A beautifully executed watercolor of the iconic Monterey Cypress trees of coastal central California, signed at lower right by well listed and increasingly sought-after artist JAMES MARCH PHILLIPS (1913-1981). This example measures 15" by 14" inside the mat and 26 1/2" by 25 1/2" in its wood frame. Phillips was born in Fresno and studied art beginning in the 1940's in San Francisco. A prolific and talented watercolorist, his works were sold in galleries throughout Northern California. Popula...

Three small works offered together, all by listed California artist TERESA (TESS) RAZALLE-CARTER (1888-1972). The works, two signed with monogram and one as "Carter", are a small impressionist ocean scene, a landscape of a tree against a sunset, ("Lost On the Salt Flats/August 1971" inscription), and a small Merry Christmas greeting in ink and white gouache. The largest works are 7 1/2" by 5 3/4" as framed. The artist was born in early Los Angeles and lived in Southern California her entire lif...

Circa first third of the 20th century, or maybe earlier, very colorful watercolor on paper of a busy street scene in Napoli (Naples, southern Italy), 22 1/2" by 12 1/2" framed, signed at lower left by artist G. CANO. I count at least 10 figures in the composition, and one burro, complementing the hanging laundry, flowers, and ancient facades. This was likely a piece made for the tourist trade, by a talented artist. The colors are very intense and the condition excellent. I would recommend re...

This is a finely executed pastel drawing of a soldier of approximately the 17th century in Europe, 22 1/2" by 16 1/2" (27" by 20 1/2" framed), signed at lower left with the initials "A R". I have been unable to connect this to a known artist but the quality is evident. Laid down on the backing, the work is in excellent condition behind glass. I believe it could have been created in the 19th century but lean more towards the turn of the century or early 20th century, the initials having a certa...

An example of the etching "The Complete Angler", by the noted English artist credited with creating the so-called "Etching Revival" of the latter 19th century, FRANCIS SEYMOUR-HADEN (1818-1910). The print is signed in the plate and lower right and dated there 1877, but was likely printed in the year 1880, in an edition of 1000. Measurements are 6 1/2" by 8 3/4" inside the present mat and 12 1/2" by 14 3/4" as framed. The artist was interested from youth in the prints of the great masters of t...

Brooks Pettus (1918-2003) was a noted western American artist who passed away in Kennewick, Washington, leaving behind a large body of work in watercolor and oil that only recently appeared on the market. Pettus earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of New Mexico, and spent time in Albuquerque and Taos in the early 1940's. New Mexico's artistically inspiring landscape stimulated Pettus' aesthetic sense as it has for countless others. Even though he became a professional engineer, mo...

A striking, Mid Century, seventies oil on canvas abstract painting executed in a denim-like blue, the unusual and complex almost three dimensional-appearing pattern arising out of that base, 30" by 40", unframed, signed lower right "Karl McIntosh". McIntosh (1940-2009) was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma and passed away in Ogden, Utah, after a long career in fine art. McIntosh worked in illustration, and theater design, and painted futuristic and surrealistic paintings. I note that there is an Afric...

A copy of the 1982 book "Wright Morris/Photographs & Words", this being one of 500 copies of the first edition, signed by the photographer. The book measures 12" by 9 3/4". There is no dust jacket. The book is in good but not mint condition. There is normal wear to the covers, including a small stain above "WRIGHT", and a slightly musty smell, the book having perhaps been in a damp location at some point. It is filled with the black and white photographs of humble architecture and landscape...

Oil on canvas painting of rather ornate old buildings in a cityscape, " by ", unframed, signed at lower right, executed circa 1980. The tightly cropped scene shows evidence of an artistic hand, the buildings reminiscent of San Francisco's Victorian architecture, or even European architecture. There is a signature at lower right that I have been unable to decipher. I thought it possibly "Gehry" as in Frank Gehry the famous architect, but there is no evidence I see on the net that he dabbled in...

A PAIR of oil on canvasboard paintings of Native American women, each 12" by 10" framed, one signed on the front left and again on the reverse in ink, (and titled there "Apache Woman"); the other signed faintly in pencil on the reverse, both by listed southwestern American artist CHARLES LAMONK (1910-1990). LaMonk, born in Kemmerer, Wyoming, was a painter of American and Central Mexican Indians as well as the caves, canyons and petroglyph rock art of the Southwest. The artist graduated from the...

From the 1964 Derriere Le Miroir #149, one of five original lithographs that appeared in that issue, with original center crease and reverse text in English and French, "Red Yellow Blue", by the famous Color Field and Hard-Edge modern artist ELLSWORTH KELLY (1923-2015). This print published in November 1964 by Maeght Editeur is in superb original condition, the colors rich and not light-struck. Measurements are 15" by 21 1/2" (21" by 28" in its present silver metal framing). Not hand signed o...

Colorful vintage unframed impressionist painting of the iconic Taos Pueblo in New Mexico, painted in a bright palette, oil on canvas laid on board, 12" by 14", signed at lower right with conjoined initials "MP", a typical signature of California artist MARION RANDALL PARSONS (1878-1953). Parsons was born in San Francisco and lived most of her life in the Bay Area. A bold and independent woman for her time, she befriended Wanda Muir, daughter of famous naturalist John Muir, and through the frie...

A contemporary painting of roses, painted in a highly impressionistic manner, with palette knife applying generous amounts of paint, giving the painted areas a three dimensional look, signed illegibly at lower right. The piece measures 10" by 8" (19" by 16 1/2" in attractive, complementary silvery framing). Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

For the eclectic collector of 19th century American folk art, this is an oil on canvas, as framed in the original gilt, measuring 26 1/2" by 37 1/2" overall. The work was purchased in coastal Maine, where it came directly out of an old farmhouse near Nobleboro. It had been the property of one family there for decades. From a folk art Americana standpoint, it is a most interesting and unusual work indeed. The previous seller's label described it as ".....Revivalist Period 1830-1840 unsigned dep...

A circa 1960's or 1970's lithograph of two female figures, in the typically dream-like fantasy style of the noted 20th century artist LEONOR FINI (1907-1996). The work is numbered in pencil 32/200 at lower left and signed in pencil at lower right with the signature of the artist. A truly international person all her life, Fini was born in Argentina and grew up in Trieste, Italy. Soon she was in Paris, associating with figures such as Andre Breton, Max Ernst and George Balanchine. In the 193...

Oil on canvas landscape of a snowy peak towering above lower mountains, a lone figure in a row boat at lower right in the lake, signed at lower right "Wm. Rennison" or similar. The early 20th century work measures 14" by 24" (17 3/4" by 28" in modern-day antique style framing). The work reminds of the Hudson River School. If I am reading the name correctly, I am not able to locate a listed artist by that name. Condition is very good, I note an old patch on the reverse corresponding to the ri...

A circa 1920 painting of a waterfall emerging from a steep cliff above a gorge, signed at lower right by artist S. P. Christesen. I do not see a listing for an artist by this name, or Christensen, but clearly he/she was talented. The scene would appear to be western American, though I recently viewed photos of the noted Montmorency Falls in Quebec, Canada, and there is a strong resemblance to this scene. A hint to the origin may be on the reverse, where "Fab-Rik-O-Na" is printed on the burlap...

I offer this work on paper, 19" by 25" inside the mat, 26 1/2" by 33" framed in simple black frame (to be shipped without glass), as a print of some kind by the important Swiss modern artist HANS ERNI (1909-2015). Signed in the plate at lower right and dated there "60", this would appear to be a monotype, or possibly a lithograph, with hand coloring added. Several examples are to be seen in the auction record, and they are I believe mistakenly described as gouache, original, unique works. Ind...

A small, beautifully crafted oil on canvasboard landscape titled on reverse "Abandoned Farm Santa Clara River", dated June 1999, signed at lower right and again on the reverse, and with artist's business card affixed as well. The painting measures 8" by 10" and 11 1/2" by 13 1/2" in wood frame with liner. Condition is excellent. The artist was born in Pennsylvania and has been in Southern California for most of his life, with much of his subject matter taken from the Oxnard and Ventura area. ...

An impressive vintage circa 1960's or 1970's tempera on canvas painting, 32" by 61" in its bamboo style framing, unsigned, the subject an inclusive blend of typical village sights of Southeast Asia, people going about their business and socialization in the tropical landscape. Could be either Thai or Indonesian, possibly Bali; hard to say. Condition vintage good, no holes, with authentic aging. Will make a statement in your Asian decor interior. Because of the size, shipping could be expensi...

A vintage hammered copper small pot, unmarked, likely circa first part of the 20th century, with interesting curved handle, and hand placed grommet. Measurements are 4" high not including handle, and about 5 1/4" across at widest. Not the famous Dirk van Erp of the San Francisco Bay area, but nevertheless and interesting piece. There is a dent along the bottom edge as shown.

A lovely ink and watercolor drawing, 10" by 13" (22" by 28" framed), featuring two elegantly dressed early 20th century women strolling in a park-like setting, as a gentleman on horseback passes by headed in the other direction. The work is signed at lower left by LUDOVIC-RODO PISSARRO (1878-1952), one of four sons of famous French impressionist artist Camille Pissarro. "Rodo" as he was often called throughout his life, was born in Paris and early on received training from his father. By 1894...

A nicely worked watercolor featuring the green farmland and coastal mountains of Ireland, signed at lower right by noted, listed Irish artist SAM MCLARNON (1923-2013). The circa 1970's work, 11 1/4" by 18" (17" by 23" in inexpensive modern framing), is in excellent fresh condition, the colors not faded. One can almost smell the oceanic air. There is some record that McLarnon has had auction records in the past as high as $10,000 but I cannot verify that information. Allow for reflections in s...

A very unusual painting that looks like a mix of Japanese Anime, the Big Eye School, and a Katy Perry video: oil on canvas, 24" by 18 1/2" on the stretchers, 28 1/2" by 22 1/4" as framed, signed at lower left by artist Christina Anthony. I do not see internet information on the artist, who was technically talented. The scene is a complete fantasy, with curling red and white striped candy canes, cupcakes, and lollypops lining a curving road. Most definitely a unique image. Condition is excel...
