About the Item

Egidio Dall'Olio (1705–1784) "Joseph the Jew in Prison" Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions (Framed): 100 x 112 cm Dimensions (Canvas): 86 x 105 cm No signatured A remarkable work by the Italian Baroque painter Egidio Dall'Olio, Joseph the Jew in Prison is a fine example of 18th-century religious narrative painting. The scene depicts the biblical Joseph, unjustly imprisoned, engaged in a moment of profound dialogue, possibly interpreting dreams or revealing divine wisdom. Dall'Olio’s mastery of chiaroscuro, fluid drapery, and expressive faces brings an intimate psychological depth to the composition. Dall'Olio, an artist of the late Baroque and early Rococo period, was known for his religious commissions and skillful rendering of figures, particularly in church frescoes and altar paintings. His style reflects the Venetian influence, characterized by soft tonal transitions and a dynamic yet harmonious composition. This painting, presented in a period-style gilded frame, remains in good condition, with age-appropriate patina enhancing its historical character. A valuable addition for collectors of Old Master paintings and religious art.

"Dancer's Dream" Large Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless Display
Located in Encino, CA
“Dancer's Dream,” an original oil on canvas by Robert K. White, is a piece for the true collector. White’s careful attention to detail and vivid use of greens, browns, and whites project from the painting, immediately capturing the viewer's attention and highlighting the artist's keen ability to capture emotion and life - all in a brushstroke. White's talent for depicting light and shadow provides the foundation for him to deliver subjects and scenes to the viewer's eye. This masterful work would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for dancers, the ballet, portraits, and color-rich works of art. In the artist’s own words, “I don’t paint what is inside of me; I paint what I see outside of me. I’m an observer. If I see something and I feel an affinity for it, something just clicks in my head. I’ll make the decision right then and there to paint that particular subject during that particular moment. It’s a perfect moment. Once something has caught my eye and I’ve heard the “perfect” click, it’s like a photograph has been taken in my mind’s eye. I only have a few days of clarity with that image. I have to start the painting quickly or else it will be gone and I will lose that image forever.” Artist: ROBERT KENNETH WHITE...
