This is a very decorative item of impressive size for your Southwest style home: a gouache painting on cloth, roughly square at 30 1/8" by 30 7/8" plus about 3 1/2" on a side of frame and undermat......no signature that I can see but it reminds me of the popular "yeibichai" weavings of the Navajo and Hopi Southwest. The condition is excellent and this is ready for the wall. Allow for reflections in the glass.

A small gouache painting of what I believe to be New York's tony upper 5th Avenue area in winter, the view looking south, encompassing the entry to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, skyscrapers filling the distance, 7" by 10 3/4" (13 1/2" by 17" in gold metal frame with double mat). I think it also possible that the scene could be Chicago's Michigan Avenue and the Chicago Art Museum; more research needed. The work is signed at lower left by German-born artist FRANZ BACHELIN (1895-1980)...

Australian "bark" painting, the painting itself (not including the panel to which it is mounted) measuring 25 1/2" by 11 1/2", bearing reverse label showing this to be a work of the well-known artist and respected tribal elder ENGLAND BANGALA (1925-2001). The handwritten label shows his age as 42, so this would have been created in 1967 or thereabouts. The label gives Bangala's tribe and tells the story of what we see: "The families have been hunting & caught a bream & 2 snakes ...

When I first saw this I thought it might be an image of Obama, in the style of Shepard Fairey, who created the now-famous "Hope" image. Upon closer examination I saw that it was obviously older, circa 1960's, judging from the label on the frame, which gives the artist as a Jim Moran of Visalia, California. The subject remains to me a mystery, but I wonder if it might be a famous 1960's African-American activist---or then again it might not be a black subject at all...

Circa 1965 red free form metal sculpture on a black wooden base by George Curtis (1923-2010). Curtis developed a unique way of creating freedom as opposed to formal structure sculptures. Using a 5 gallon pail filled with water and potatoes, he would melt scrap aluminum and pour it into the pail. The result was an unvisualized form that humans have never seen before, a representation of the shape of spaces and caverns between objects. Measures 15" high.

This appears to be an image in gouache on top of some kind of waxy scratchboard, measuring 10" by 14" (17" by 20 3/4" as framed), signed at lower left "DE GUST" and dated there "59". I can't find a listing for the artist but he or she painted in a classic style pioneered by the likes of Jean Le Mayeur and others in the history of modern Indonesian art. The painting is in excellent condition, and is ready for the wall in its simple black frame and clean mat.

A fine example of the work of famous Mexican artist "CHUCHO" JESUS REYES FERREIRA (1882-1977), measuring 29" by 19" (36" by 26" in a circa mid-century frame with liner). This is an outstanding example of the work of this noted self-taught artist, created in a mix of gouache and oil and metallic gold paint on his delicate, typical crepe paper/tissue paper. The artist was born in Guadalajara in the later 19th century and achieved the age of 96 before passing in Mexico City...
