One of America's greatest illustrators, Jessie Willcox Smith attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and studied under Thomas Eakins in Philadelphia, graduating in 1888. A year later, she found work in the production department of the Ladies' Home Journal, for five years. After that, she continued her art education with classes under Howard Pyle, first at Drexel and then at the Brandywine School.
Smith then established her reputation, illustrating stories and articles for Century, Collier's Weekly, Leslie's Weekly, Harper's, McClure's,Scribner's, and the Ladies' Home Journal. Smith was closely associated with the artists Elizabeth Shippen Green and Violet Oakley, who also studied with Pyle, and the group became known as "the Red Rose Girls...

'Young Girl Sewing' Paris, Universal Exposition, Copenhagen, Pont Aven, Brittany
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed lower right, 'Find' for Ludvig Find (Danish, 1869-1945) and painted circa 1900.
Ludvig Find first attended Copenhagen's School of Fine Arts and Kroyer's school (1888) before studying with Zahrtmann (1900). In Florence and Venice, (1893-4), Find made a close study of the works of the Renaissance masters, particularly those of Piero della Francesca. In the 1890s, while visiting Brittany, Find was first introduced into the circle of Paul Gauguin and Paul Serusier and became influenced by the modernist ideas of the Nabis and the Pont Aven .
His extended trips to Paris (1902, 1904), deepened his exposure to Modernism and the influence of artists such as Vuillard, Bonnard and Renoir becomes noticeable. Back in Denmark, this exposure to the ferment of new ideas had a renewing effect and his solo exhibition of 1906 drew critical appreciation. He was thus one of the Danish artists who, at the earliest point in the new century, forged a connection with contemporary French art...

19th century oil painting of a horse and buggy with a two figures, in landscape
Located in Woodbury, CT
Well painted late 19th-century Austro-Hungarian oil on canvas of two figures in a buggy, out for a ride.
Both people are well dressed which makes me think they are of the upper classes and the artist was known to paint scenes of people of wealth in various compositions.
Whilst little is known about the painter the style and composition of this piece are typical of some Central European painters who painted such subjects, always with great skill and detail.
This is a particularly large example of one of these subjects.
The artist has achieved the effect of motion very well.
The painting is framed in a Vintage French frame.
