American, b. 1949 In his more than three decades as an artist, Nicholas Berger (b. 1949) has created an outstanding body of work that continues to evolve and excite viewers. Best known for his industrial, waterfront scenes of New York between 1930-1970, Berger effortlessly captures a period when the technology and landscape of the city was rapidly changing. Although he paints scenes of a bygone era, Berger draws inspiration from the waterfronts near his home in New York’s Hudson River Highlands as well as historical sources in museums. Berger holds BFA and MFA degrees from Alfred University. Earlier in his career, the artist painted representational landscapes rendered in watercolor, a medium in which he achieved great success, sharing a sellout two-person show in Tokyo with Andrew Wyeth. In the mid-2000s, Berger transitioned to his signature industrial scenes of the city, employing oil on panel in a painterly manner influenced by the Hudson River and Brandywine schools...

Eurasian woodcock wading in a Stream by Thure Wallner, Signed Th. Wallner, oil on panel. This charming small painting by Thure Wallner depicts an Eurasian woodcock wading in the flowing waters of a stream or brook. The bird is depicted navigating the shallow current in front of a large moss-covered stone, adding a sense of natural depth and tranquility to the composition. The soft, earthy tones and the movement of the water contribute to the atmospheric quality of the scene. Thure Vilhelm Wallner (1888–1965) was a Swedish painter and illustrator known for his meticulous depictions of Nordic wildlife and landscapes. He developed an early passion for drawing and painting, receiving private lessons from Artur Bianchini. Around 1910, he furthered his studies at Althins school of painting in Stockholm. Wallner suffered from poor health throughout his life, which led to isolation from other children. To occupy himself, he copied nature and animal studies from magazines, which later influenced his artistic direction. His first known work, a still life, was created in 1903. Over the years, he refined his technique, taking early inspiration from Bruno Liljefors, though his own style became highly detailed and realistic, with a deep focus on nature and wildlife. He primarily painted Swedish fauna and landscapes, particularly from Sörmland and the Swedish mountain...
