About the Item
The pastel portrait of Stella Samuel, very likely a starlet from the thirties, created in the style of Charles Sheldon, emanates timeless elegance.

Stella's allure comes to life in the hypnotizing gaze the artist painted.

- Abstract Watercolor #3 by Carl Lewis PappeLocated in Pasadena, CANahuatl art inspired this multicolor geometric abstract by artist Carl Lewis Pappe. The overall impression is of a colorful overlap of shapes of different sizes thanks to curvy black lines. The crossing of these black lines creates a large variety of geometric forms. Some forms have been left almost blank, because the artist added small red circles or ovals, suggesting some kind of mysterious gates to another dimension. It adds a sense of wonder to the general feeling of the artwork. Th abstract is signed by the artist at the lower right and dated 1989. It is labeled for Taxco, Mexico. Painter, sculptor, and printmaker Carl Lewis Pappe was born in Hungary in 1900. He died in 1998. Following grade school, Pappe first enrolled at the Cleveland School of Art (not the Cleveland Institute of Art) from 1921 to 1925. Upon graduation, the Hungarian Society awarded him a full scholarship to attend the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, where he studied under Daniel Garber and Hugh Breckinridge. In the late 1930s, Pappe and Goodspeed opened a studio and gallery in the silver mining...Category

- "Something Going on Inside" Drawing by Amalia Schulthess - 1958Located in Pasadena, CAThis unique drawing by painter/sculptor Amalia Schulthess features large black ink curves surrounding semi-abstract characters. As the title suggests "Something going on inside". The piece is signed and dated with red ink. The entire life of Amalia Schulthess has been tied up in art. She grew up in Thurgau, Switzerland, where Paul Klee was a frequent guest in her house. She immigrated to America in 1941. Upon her arrival in New York she made contact with Piet Mondrian, who inspired her to continue working as a professional artist. Schulthess then traveled west, painting and exhibiting for the next 20 years in California and New Mexico. In Taos she met Andrew Dasburg and was instrumental in reviving the career of the great modernist who had fallen into obscurity after the war. By the late 1960s Schulthess had abandoned painting for sculpture. She worked in Florence, Italy for 10 years and after that established a studio in Pietra Santa. Regardless of where she was her work has always been close to nature. Organic forms predominate and the magic of the raw material is allowed to speak out. Schulthess was the subject of a retrospective at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art in 1976 and has exhibited in Paris at the Salon de Jeune Sculpture and the Salon de Mais. Her work is in various public and private collections both in Europe and America including the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, La Jolla Art...Category
