Small oil on canvas (9" by 6 1/2", 13"by 10" framed), laid on plywood panel painting of a dark green mountainside, some autumn leaves beginning to appear on two spindly trees, apparently unsigned, circa late 19th century. The painting probably dates to about 1880 but has been laid on the plywood in recent decades (some waxy drips on the plywood as seen). There is some craquelure with a few pinpoint losses. I have searched in vain for any hint as to who the artist might have been...

Oil on very thin canvas, 11 1/2" by 17 1/2" (17" by 23" in vintage frame), the subject given as "Smoke Tree" in pencil on reverse paper, signed at lower left corner "Haydock".

Of terracotta or earthenware, this lovely sculpture depicts a pug dog lying down, has glass eyes and a red collar. Painted surface over tan body. With big jowls and black ears, he is quite endearing, and is in good condition for its age. Condition is good overall, with no breaks or chips, just minor loss to paint surface, all visible in photos. Most dog figures like this were made in Germany, and were imported all over the world to dog fanciers. Sometimes it is difficult to be sure of the ...

This is a watercolor painting of the famous Philippe's French Dip Restaurant in downtown Los Angeles, an iconic area landmark to this day. The restaurant opened in 1908 and remains a vital part of Los Angeles' living history. At the restaurant, so the story goes, in the year 1918, a food preparer accidentally dropped a hot meat sandwich into the juices of the cooking pan. A customer requested it, despite its "compromised" condition...

An old oil on wood panel painting of a peaceful stream running through a wooded area, unsigned, 9 1/4" by 13", unframed. The work is obviously by a talented hand, probably a listed artist had he/she signed it. The oval artist's materials stamp on reverse of panel and the work itself suggests a date of circa 1900, maybe 1910. The oil needs some attention from a restorer to fully expose its original beauty...

A color print, pencil signed at lower right, numbered 466/900 at lower left, by the noted western American artist OLAF WIEGHORST (1899-1988). The title is "Navajos at Castle Creek", measuring 17 3/4" by 24 1/2" inside the mat, 28" by 34" as framed. Wieghorst was born in Denmark and was exposed to horses there. By 1918 he was in the United States. Ultimately he settled in the San Diego area and became well known for his western American art. Paintings have gone into six figures at auction...

Oil on canvas laid on board, 3 1/4" by 5 3/4", 6 1/2" by 8 3/4" framed, this work is almost a miniature. The subject is typical Texas: a dirt road winding into the distance in a country landscape, trees at the right. I would be tempted to say this is a typical "bluebonnet painting", featuring the famous wildflower display that anyone who has been in Texas in the spring will recall with fondness; but the signature at lower left "GOFF" is very interesting...

Watercolor and mixed media (ink, gouache) drawing, 8 1/4" by 10 1/4" (13 3/4" by 15 3/4" framed), titled on the reverse framing paper in the hand of the artist "David playing before King Saul", signed there and again at lower left by the well listed New York-California artist IRVING ALEXANDER BLOCK (1910-1986).

An unframed, unstretched oil on canvas painting of famous author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle relaxing in his chair, pipe in hand and faithful Irish Terrier dog "Paddy" at his side. The work is unsigned, and likely dates to circa 1920. Could be American or European; the unknown artist was obviously trained and skilled. The painting is blanched---a cleaning would likely minimize or totally remove that condition. The tacking edge has been removed. Measurements are 17 1/2" by 13 1/2". My thanks to ...

A watercolor with pencil and pen and ink showing the Arch of Janus in the foreground on the right with the tower and a porch of the Church of Saint George’s in Velabro Rome a little further back on the left. Written on the old backboard “S. Giorgio – Roma/ Augustus Hare” and a card on added to it fairly recently, probably when it was reframed, “S. Giorgio in Rome/ Dec. 1863/ William Augustus Hare.” This is either a mistake in transcription, a dubious addition, or the homage to Wil...

Offset poster (not a lithograph) of the July to September 1968 exhibition of works by the famous French Cubist master artist Georges Braque at the prestigious Galerie Beyeler in Basel, Switzerland. Measures 28 3/4" by 20 1/2". Photos were taken in glass poster framing as found (allow for reflections). The glass is cracked at lower left so this will be removed and sent either in a tube or flat according to buyer preference (tube shipping generally more economical, contact me for your preference...

Watercolor on paper, 19" by 20" (27 3/4" by 27 3/4" as framed), confidently signed at lower left by professional artist MARINA ULIANOFF, and dated there 1951. I do not see a listing for the name, but, there is a listing for a Los Angeles area artist by the name of Vsevolod Ulianoff (1880-1940), who painted murals like that in the lobby of Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. I imagine there is a possibility this could be by his wife. In any event, the hand of this artist was accomplished, ...

Oil on board painting featuring flaming autumnal trees, a view to high mountains beyond, signed at lower right "STIRLING". This 12" by 8 1/2" work (18" by 15" framed) is a rather typical example of Colorado impressionist artist DAVE STIRLING (1887-1971). Stirling was a familiar face in Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, where he had a studio from which he sold paintings to passing tourists. The studio and home was called the Bugscuffle Ranch, and it was located just inside the park....

In 1968 and 69 Haku Maki produced Poem 5 for Festive Wine. That image was a paradigm of clarity as to what the kanji or Woman ought to look like. It was a smooth svelte character. Yet at this same time, he also did this print, a tall gangly woman. It is Poem 69-50. She looks as if she is askelter, not all “together”. Or is the left leg longer than the right one? The print itself is done in the Maki manner: Size 10.5 “ x 10.5”. Maki used splashes on his prints to give dynamism to ...

In the last year of Maki’s life, Daniel Tretiak tells us, he was ill but continued to work. He did lithographs on shikishi board, which was a hard board covered in white rice paper. The back was yellow with a small design in gold and the whole board is gold-edged. Poem 8B is one of those works done in the 1999-2000 period.

ORIGINAL work, not a print as is commonly seen, 13 1/4" by 19", 19" by 25" as framed, signed at lower left in white by the noted Croatian or Yugoslavian naive folk painter JOVAN OBICAN (1918-1986).

Oil on canvas, 14" by 18" (18" by 22" framed) poor condition, requiring re-line total restoration, signed at lower left and dated there 1908, by the well-listed Midwest artist LEON A. MAKIELSKI (1885-1974). The Pennsylvania-born artist after youth in South Bend, Indiana landed in Chicago in the early 1900's, studying and then instructing at the Art Institute; he would have been in Chicago environs in 1908 when this was painted so one could speculate if this scene might be the Indiana dunes, or ...

This is a rather early landscape etching in brown ink, signed at lower right in pencil by the renowned southwestern artist MICHAEL B. COLEMAN (1946-). The work is numbered 20/20 at lower left margin. Judging from the auction record, which shows that oils have exceeded $50,000, the number of etchings by Coleman's hand is apparently rather limited. This one probably dates to early in his career, perhaps the late 1970's or early 1980's. Coleman was born in Utah and still lives there. By his mi...

Japanese limited edition woodblock print by Morihiro Sato (b. 1943) depicting white bellflowers. A student of Joichi Hoshi who was influenced by Hoshi's use of metallic pigments, the artist set the flowers and partial moon (or sun) against a metallic background. Depending upon the lighting conditions (see image taken with flash) the background appears either golden or silver. The print is pencil-titled in kanji "Autumn (Bellflowers)" and numbered 3/55 at the lower left. It is signed and date...

Collection 30 is one of the many striking prints of ceramics that fascinated Maki from the late 1970s to the early 1990s. Maki’s ceramic prints conveyed the “feel” of the bowls or cups or wine vessels—a sense of how it would feel if touched was imparted to the viewer through his ability to suggest texture in his prints. In this case, a black bowl has red places showing through the black, suggesting that the potter fired it first with a red glaze, then decided to cover it by coating it ...

Oil or acrylic on canvasboard abstract painting, larger size at 29" by 41" as framed, signed at lower right "KAYE". I am reminded of some of the works of Kandinsky or perhaps several of the Russian early 20th century avant-garde and Constructivism artists, such as Ivan Kliun, Mikhail Larionov, Kazimir Malevich, Alexandra Exter, and El Lissitsky. The creator of this work (and two others by the same artist I have listed) was probably a talented amateur with an excellent sense of color and a know...

An interesting color printed engraving of George Washington published in London in 1798 by Robert Cribb, Holborn, engraved by William Nutter after a painting by Gilbert Stuart purported to belong to J.S. DeFranca of Devonshire Place. Devonshire Place is a part of London, but a quick search did not turn up a J.S. DeFranca and it is possible that this print is a copy of another print of Washington, based on the Lansdowne portrait by Gilbert Stuart. It is printed on laid paper and the fact that it ...

Fine 18th century engraving of Pope Leo XI, framed 3x5 inches

A watercolor on organic natural wafer of a somewhat older woman wearing a blue jacket with fur edging, a pearl choker, and a rust colored cap with lace.

The condition of the painting is excellent, with no issues, while the case has exterior wear but is structurally sound. Sight size is 2: by 1 5/8", and the case is 2 7/8" by 2 1/8"

This is a block print on an unusual paper, the subject a mounted Native American banging his drum while on a white horse, signed in the block by the important "dean of Arizona artists", LON MEGARGEE (1883-1960). The striking image might be after a painting by the artist, who, the story goes, was passed one day in the desert by a warrior in a dreamy trance-like reverie state, working his drum in this manner, barely noticing the white man watching him pass. Megargee was born in Philadelphia to w...
