A beautiful silvery-themed oil on Masonite painting of birch trees in a snowy winter landscape, by the noted California artist VERNON KERR (1938-1982).

This is an excellent example of Kerr's work, likely dating to the 1960's or 1970's...

A nicely painted waist length portrait, done on organic material, of an attractive woman with dark brown eyes and hair.

An etching titled at lower left margin "A View of Rotterdam", signed with initials in the plate at right and dated there 1910, and pencil signed by the artist at lower right margin. The panoramic view would have been created when the artist was in his early 30's.

A very colorful and whimsical MCM or "Retro" painting of doll-like figures appearing as a hybrid between clowns and Raggedy Ann dolls, by the noted California-based painter at mid century, PAUL BLAINE HENRIE (1932-1999). This circa 1960's or 1970's oil or acrylic on canvas measures 18" by 24" (23" by 29" framed). Condition is excellent, the original goldish frame a bit dusty and dulled by age. Signed at lower center and appears to be dated there "66"...

An example of the etching originally dating to 1891, "Sitzender Mannlicher Akt" (Sitting Nude Man), by famous German artist KATHE KOLLWITZ (1867-1945). The sheet measures 7" by 6" inside the mat, 16" by 15" as framed. This is a circa 1946-48 posthumous edition on cream wove paper, with the A.V.D. Becke blind stamp from Berlin Halensee impressed at lower right (which I have tried my best to photograph). Kollwitz was born in Konigsberg in the old East Prussia...

For the dog aficionado, especially those who prize the terriers, a 24" by 30" pastel of two white dogs lounging most comfortably on cushions in an upscale interior, while staring out placidly at the viewer. The piece is apparently signed in monogram at upper right within the oval, the monogram seemingly "AVB" or something similar. For a time I thought the work unsigned, but, the monogram does indeed appear to be a signature...

An example of the scarce "sur blanc" lithograph prints of famed French caricaturist and satirist artist HONORE DAUMIER (1808-1879), the 1851 print from the "Actualites" series, and Le Charivari. It is beautifully hand colored, with gum arabic highlights in the dark areas of the central figure's robe. Not examined out of the frame, it appears very clean and fresh (happy to examine out of frame upon request)...

A **PAIR** of fine watercolor and gouache drawings, both of Punjab (northern India) soldiers in costume of their period, both signed "John Lucas" by the noted English artist JOHN SEYMOUR LUCAS (1849-1923). One is titled "5th Cavalry Punjab 1897", the other "37th Punjab Infantry 1905". Both measure 10" by 7" inside their present maroon mats (unframed). Detail of the soldiers' costuming is meticulous and impressive. The artist is known today as a Victorian England historical painter and theatr...

A small circa 1960's or 1970's painting on canvasboard, 14" by 10", unframed, the subject a brown vase with yellow decoration set on a blue surface, a green grain-painted background setting off the orange-yellow flowers and two cattails. The work is signed at lower right I Y Dobrinsky. I do not currently believe this to be the work of a listed artist Isaac Dobrinsky (1891-1973), born in present-day Ukraine and active in Paris, painting in a highly impressionist style, mostly between 1920 and 1...

An unframed oil on canvas landscape, 12 3/4" by 16", the subject a large lake in high country, a distant mountain in the background and tall spruce-type trees at left along the rocky shore. I have searched diligently for a signature and cannot find one, which is frustrating, as the work is certainly good enough to have been executed by a listed artist. The canvas was laid down on a board circa 1940 or so judging from the "Brownie Board" age. Weave of the canvas and the technique all suggest th...
