Beautiful oil on fiberboard painting of a view of Switzerland done by the American artist, John William Casilear. Signed with monogram lower left. Condition is excellent. Circa 1857/1858. The painting is housed in a contemporary frame. Overall framed measurements are 6 5/8 by 8 5/8 inches. lProvenance: Long Island, New York collector. Biography John William Casilear was born in New York City on June 25, 1811. Like his fellow Hudson River School landscapists Asher B. Durand and John F. Kensett, he worked as an engraver before turning to painting. In 1826 Casilear was apprenticed to the engraver Peter Maverick (1780-1831), and at first he primarily executed bank notes. Durand encouraged him to attempt other subjects, however, and during the 1830s he madeengravings after some of the most prominent paintings of the day, including Daniel Huntington's The Sybil (New-York Historical Society). In 1832 he began submitting engravings to the National Academy of Design exhibition and he first showed paintings there in 1836. In 1833 Casilear was elected an Associate of the Academy; he was elevated to full Academician status in 1851. In 1840 Casilear accompanied Durand, Kensett, and another painter, Thomas P. Rossiter (1818-1871), on a trip to Europe. There the artists studied and copied paintings...

Tempera mixed with gum arabic and alcohol on Renaissance Panel ( composite wood panel ) Robert Riggs was a gay man. Being gay in American during the 1940's time was something not to flaunt in public. Rigg's had to communicate his underlying feelings in more symbolic ways. Throughout Riggs' oeuvre, one sees continuous references to strong hunked out manly men and vulnerable boys. It is a core element of is iconography and is described in a powerful graphic style. In “Prospector firing Rifle,” there is a Dick Pic. Riggs is clearly making a sexual statement about the moment of climax. The long, straight rifle explodes and is captured at the moment of its peak climax. Meanwhile, the two bags of gold clearly resemble the other part of the male anatomy. Riggs was a thoughtful and meticulous visual thinker, and nothing in any of Riggs’s compositions was haphazardly placed. In tribute to the artist’s suppressed feelings, I have given this work a second title “Happiness is a Warm Gun...

Dimensions with frame: 30 x 40,3 x 4 cm. Signed "Aug Siegen" in the lower right corner. A lively and atmospheric street scene depicting the historic city of Padua, animated by figures, carriages, and everyday urban life. The composition centers on a grand architectural façade with arcades and a prominent tower, rendered with precision and bathed in warm, late-afternoon light. The street is populated with pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages, capturing the rhythm of daily life in a historic Italian city. The presence of striped awnings and small shopfronts adds charm and visual detail, while the receding perspective draws the viewer into the depth of the street. The artist demonstrates strong academic skill in architectural rendering and spatial construction, combined with a more fluid and expressive treatment of figures and atmosphere. The palette is warm and harmonious, dominated by ochres, terracottas, and soft greys, with subtle accents of red enlivening the scene. This work reflects the tradition of 19th century European cityscape and genre painting, appealing to collectors of Italian views, architectural scenes, and narrative urban compositions. padoue painting, padua cityscape oil painting, italian street scene painting, european cityscape 19th century, italian architecture painting...
