Saint Roch with Saint Jerome + Saint Sebastian - British Edwardian oil painting
Located in Hagley, England
This superb religious figurative oil painting is by noted artist Wilfred de Glehn. Although some experts rank de Glehn alongside Sargent, he is considered as something of a late British Renoir, for his deft use of sunlight and shadow. Indeed he was good friends with John Singer Sargent and collaborated with his on some projects. This painting, painted circa 1910 is of three saints, from left to right they are Saint Jerome, Saint Roch and Saint Sebastian. It is based on a work attributed to 16th century artist Alessandro Oliverio. Saint Jerome was a biblical translator and monastic leader and is depicted in red, holding books. Saint Roch and Saint Sebastian were known as the Plague saints - Plague saints offered hope and healing before, during, and after times of plague. A specific style of painting, the plague votive, was considered a talisman for warding off the plague. It portrayed a particular saint as an intercessor between God and the person or persons who commissioned the painting – usually a town, government, lay confraternity, or religious order to atone for the "collective guilt" of the community. Rather than a society depressed and resigned to repeated epidemics, these votives represent people taking positive steps to regain control over their environment. Paintings of Roch represent the confidence in which renaissance worshipers sought to access supernatural aid in overcoming the ravages of the plague. The thirteenth-century Saint Roch (or Rocco), whose death is still commemorated in Italy, is especially invoked against the plague. He attended plague victims in public hospitals in Italy according to traditional accounts of his life. Images attributed to the Spanish historical painter Nicolás Borrás in the Royal Cornwall Museum, or other works in institutions from The National Gallery to the Wallace Collection, show him baring his thigh to show the mark of the plague, as he is in this painting. Saint Roch is also the patron saint of dogs, after one carried food to him in the prison where he died...

Late 19th Century Tonalist Landscape -- Afternoon by the Pond
Located in Soquel, CA
Gorgeous tonalist oil painting woman walking in field by pond with home in background by Willis Seaver Adams (American, 1844-1921), circa 1880. Trees and an amazing sky in the background add depth and interest to this beautiful piece. Signed "W. S. Adams" lower right corner. Condition: Previous restoration includes relining of canvas. Frame is vintage gilt molded and wood frame and shows previous repair of molding losses. Image size: 20"H x 24"W.
Auctions records for the artist exceed $6,000.
Willis Seaver Adams was known for his landscapes of the Connecticut River Valley. A relative recluse for much of his artistic life, his loneliness can be seen in much of his works. Oil miniatures were the focus for almost all of his later works. He is credited with over 425 oils, watercolors, and drawings.
Willis Seaver was born in 1844 on a farm in Suffield, near the Connecticut River. He intermittently attended the Suffield Academy, and always wanted to be a painter. A wealthy doctor became his patron, and financed his studies in 1868 at the Royal Academy in Antwerp. When the doctor passed away, Adams returned home and struggled to make a living painting. After working for a photographer for three years, he opened his own studio.
Adams helped organize Cleveland's first watercolor exhibit in 1876. Soon thereafter, he completed a portrait of Rutherford B. Hayes, then governor of Ohio, prior to his becoming President of the United States. This portrait enhanced Adams notoriety.
In 1878, Adams traveled to Italy where he opened a studio in Venice, and became friendly with neighbor James Whistler. Prior to returning to Springfield, Adams lived in Florence, Italy for three years. He returned to became an instructor for the Springfield Art Association, and began to exhibit his works at the galleries of James D. Gill. His first one-man exhibit was held there in 1894. Other successful exhibitions took place in Chicago, New York, and Boston. Although his works garnered respectable prices and reflected his success, Adams felt he was due more recognition.
In 1906, he moved to Greenfield, Massachusetts and converted a barn into a studio. There, he fell into relative obscurity, accompanied mainly by his dog, Collie. In 1921, Adams passed away.
Examples of Willis Adams works can be seen at the Kent Memorial Library, the Wadsworth Atheneum, and the Suffield Academy. Several Suffield residents are thought to own Adams paintings.

Eric Harrison (Born 1971)
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
-Henry D. Thoreau
Eric Harrison-born 1971 in San Antonio, Texas. In 1995 he married Kim Marie, and together they have two sons, Noah and Ethan. The Harrison’s reside in the hill country west of Blanco, Texas.
Currently painting in a language resonant with other Texas artists such as Robert and Julian Onderdonk, Robert Wood, Porfirio Salinas, Dawson Dawson-Watson, and Robert Harrison; with an affinity toward the work of California painter William Wendt. Paul Cezanne and many of the post impressionists.
Exhibitions and collections of his work include:

Stilla sommarkväll (Still Summer Evening) 1851
Located in Stockholm, SE
Stilla sommarkväll (1851) by Adolf Julius Berg captures a tranquil summer evening by the water, suffused with the golden glow of sunset. In the foreground, two small boats drift on glassy, reflective waters – in one, a man stands with a fishing rod in hand, patiently angling as the day fades. A gentle breeze appears to carry a few diminutive sailboats across the distant bay, their sails illuminated by the last warm light. On the shoreline stands an old windmill, its silhouette etched against the radiant twilight sky. The overall composition exudes calm and harmony, evoking the profound stillness of a Nordic summer nightfall.
The alla prima handling of light and color – from the lambent rose-tinted clouds to the lustrous reflections in the water – showcases Berg’s skill in rendering atmosphere and nuanced illumination. In its poetic serenity, Still Summer Evening stands as a superb example of Berg’s romantic landscape artistry, inviting the viewer into a moment of idyllic peace.
In both subject and style, this painting is emblematic of Adolf J. Berg’s oeuvre. The coastal setting with a windmill and tranquil waters suggests a locale in southern Sweden – likely inspired by the archipelagic shores of Berg’s native Blekinge or a similar Swedish seaside landscape. Berg often painted scenes from Blekinge and other picturesque Swedish locales, and he favored twilight or moonlit atmospheres that imbue the scenery with a mellow, contemplative light. The warm, low-angled sunlight in Stilla sommarkväll, reflecting off calm water and silhouetting rustic structures, is typical of his fascination with dawn and dusk effects. In the harmonious balance of land, water, and sky, one can sense the influence of Berg’s early mentor, the venerable Romantic landscapist Carl Johan Fahlcrantz, whose tradition of lyrical, sunset-lit vistas is carried on here. Every element – from the fishermen quietly tending their evening catch to the distant sails gliding home – contributes to the painting’s atmosphere of gentle reverie, evoking the timeless charm of a Swedish summer night.
Adolf Julius Berg (1820–1876) was a Swedish landscape painter celebrated for his atmospheric portrayals of the Nordic countryside. Born in the coastal city of Karlskrona, Berg developed an early affinity for marine and riverside scenes. His artistic approach was shaped initially by the poetic realism of Carl Johan Fahlcrantz, and later by the dramatic naturalism of Marcus Larson...
