Guy Carleton Wiggins
Guy Carleton Wiggins, the son of famed Barbizon School painter Carleton Wiggins, was a prodigious talent who, at age 20, was the youngest artist to have a work in the permanent collection at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Best known for his landscape paintings of New York City’s wintry urban scenes, Wiggins is regarded as one of the finest American Impressionist landscape artists of the 20th century.
Born in 1883 in Brooklyn, New York, Wiggins displayed an early talent for drawing and, in 1900, attended the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute (now the New York University Tandon School of Engineering) to study architecture and drawing. However, he shifted his focus to painting, which he studied at the National Academy of Design under teachers Robert Henri and William Merritt Chase.
Recognition for Wiggins’s artistic talent came early in his career. In addition to his work being included at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1913, Wiggins won the prestigious Norman Wait Harris Bronze Medal from the Art Institute of Chicago in 1917. He also won several awards from the Art Club of Philadelphia, the Connecticut Academy of Fine Arts and the Salmagundi Club.
In 1920, Wiggins established a summer home in Old Lyme, Connecticut, where he became part of a group of painters who were developing their own form of Impressionism. Wiggins, however, had already established his own Impressionistic style that was based on French Impressionism and influenced by American Impressionist Childe Hassam.
During the 1930s, Wiggins divided his time between Connecticut and New York, painting Connecticut landscapes and New York street scenes such as his Winter in New York. Although some critics say his pastoral Connecticut landscapes were his best works, his snowy streetscapes set in Manhattan — brightened by pops of color in Wiggins’s depictions of green cars and rust-red building facades — are among the artist's most notable.
In 1937, Wiggins established the Guy Wiggins Art School in Essex, Connecticut. In the following years, he traveled nationally, painting scenes of Montana and Massachusetts as well as creating two paintings of the White House during Dwight D. Eisenhower’s administration. One of the paintings hung in the Oval Office during Eisenhower’s term and was eventually moved to the Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum in Abilene, Texas.
Wiggins’s paintings remain part of public and private collections throughout the United States and elsewhere, long after his death in 1962. They are also highly sought-after among collectors of American Impressionist and early 20th-century art.

Reflections - Large Impressionist Landscape Lake Vibrant Textural Oil Painting
By Katharina Husslein
Located in Los Angeles, CA
With a contemporary perspective on landscape painting and inspired by paintings created by old masters, German artist Katharina Husslein paints in a representational manner to capture saturated idyllic landscapes. Her passion for natural beauty is seen in her work as she transforms vistas familiar and rare into stunning interpretations of bold color, playful rhythms, and emotional impact.
Within her impressionist landscape paintings, her experiences abroad truly come to light. These textural and abstract paintings perfectly capture the vibrancy and movement included in a wide open landscape sunset. This series differs from Husslein’s more controlled and smoother hyperrealist still-life floral series which derives a more direct inspiration from art history and flower photography.
This large one-of-a-kind oil painting on canvas measures 39 inches high by 59 inches wide. This textural artwork is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The sides are painted as a continuation of the front. It is signed by Husslein on the back. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and International shipping are available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
“I create paintings that capture the joy of the moment in time where everything seems quietly perfect and the flowers are in full bloom. A metaphor as old as time, to seize the moment and enjoy it to its fullest extent.” When you look closely at these paintings you will see all kinds of amazing plants arranged together in a vase, some of which may not flower at the same time. The artworks focus more on the colors, lighting, textures, and botanical details which make Husslein's paintings so intriguing.
Born in Wertheim, Germany, Husslein grew up in a quaint village surrounded by luscious hills and flowing rivers. To grow her practice and widen her perspective, she left Germany to study art in London, UK. As part of her studies, she lived in Los Angeles, New York, and Australia. Now based in Munich, Germany, Husslein has exhibited her artworks across Europe, gaining collectors internationally. Her original oil paintings have been exhibited at Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles since 2022.
Artspace Warehouse has been representing and exhibiting Katharina Husslein's original artworks since 2022.

Storm Composition #3
By Abraham Rattner
Located in Miami, FL
An early example of Abstract Expressionism executed in 1955 during the movement's heyday and it's period of peak inventiveness. However, this work is still rooted in representation. The dark area the runs along the base of the picture is the ground and to the left, right and center there are black structures that represent trees. The work is very tactile and is composed of globs of paint that grow out from the surface and form a thick impasto. Rich vibrant saturated blues, reds and oranges create optical drama. The work look better in person. frame: 29 x 39 1/2 inches , Provenance: Kennedy Galleries
