The drawing is in clean, fine condition.

Very old small pencil drawing of a town scene, 3 1/2" by 3 5/8" (11 1/2" by 10" framed), unsigned, and the artist and origin unknown. It is simply an antique drawing. Someone thought enough of it to have a hand-drawn ornate mat on gray-blue paper. A church tower appears at center and a tree at left, and two tiny figures at lower right. There is a mysterious red circle stamped on the reverse; difficult to say if it may be a collector's stamp.

Colorful drawing of fruit and a vase of flowers on a table, 20" by 24" framed, signed at lower right "Laurel Scherer".

Condition is excellent. This colorful, vigorous drawing will look great in a dining area or large kitchen.

Though the writing is considerably later than the drawing it is a solid attribution to the Van de Velde family of painters. The one whose styl...

A vintage drawing in brown and sepia colored pencil, featuring the ruins of the historic old Tumacacori Mission between Tucson and Nogales, Arizona, signed "Marjorie Hardaway", titled and dated 1946.

Most of what we see today had already been erected by 18...

A skilled pencil drawing of decorative towers of a church or mosque complex, next to a river, apparently in a milder climate location (see palm trees), signed at lower right "STOLZE".

On the reverse is written "by Martin Stolze" There are several "Stolze" names among listed artists, but none of those artis...
