About the artist: Pati Bannister was born in Highgate, England, overlooking London in 1929. Growing up, both of her parents were artists. Her mother painted watercolor landscapes, while her father painted portraits. To help further her natural talents, she took art lessons as a young girl and ultimately went to work for J. Arthur Rank, the movie maker, as an animator.​ At 22 years old, she came to the United States as a governess for a family in Connecticut. Later she became a flight attendant in Florida where she met her future husband, Glynn. Little did she know, he would become the strongest influence in her life as he inspired her to pursue and share her artistic abilities with the public. ​In 1958, Pati and Glynn moved to New Orleans and she started painting portraits in Jackson Square. Eventually, she opened two art galleries located in the French Quarter. In the late 1960's, they moved to the Mississippi Gulf Coast...

You will find this young man good company! It is a pleasure to study his thoughtful, sensitive face. He has a benevolent and real presence. To my mind, he certainly has an artistic nature - he looks like a thinker, poet and/or musician. Dating from what the French call the Romantic Period, the early 1800s, our painting is monogrammed AG and may be attributed to Auguste Glaize. Born in Montpellier, Auguste Glaize studied under the painters Achille Devéria and Eugène Devéria. He came to be one of the great French Romantic painters of the early 19th century, marking his career with important history paintings and cycles of monumental religious...

In any case, in this work he shows a remarkable mastery of drawing, with particularly suggestive and subtle plays of light and shadow. The Butte aux Cailles, now part of the 13th arrondissement of Paris, was a hill covered in meadows, vineyards and woods, built with several windmills and overlooking the river Bièvre. It was named after Pierre Caille...

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...

View of the Bergsee is an original modern artwork realized by the Austrian artist and painter Josef Brunner in the middle of the XIX Century. Original Oil painting on Canvas cm. 72 x 3 x 102 (canvas). A beautiful original XIX Century decorated frame is included (total dimensions: 100 x 5 x 130). Both the work and the canvas are in very good conditions. Beautiful and intense oil painting depicting the Austrian mountain lake Bergsee. The painting is characterized by a particular play between lights and shadows: the light indeed is distributed in an extremely suffused but homogeneous way on the view but it is also able to create that sense of magic that characterized the whole landscape. The color of the lake therefore assumes a transparency and an iridescent blue that tends to the green and reflects the color of the surrounding mountains. The sky appears full of rainy clouds but they still allow the rays of the last sun to shine on. The general vision conveys calm and tranquility thanks also to the refined use of color and the play of lights and shadows, the turquoise and the pale opaque blue of the lake is perfectly emphasized by the various green tones of the trees. The white, gray and light brown rocky mountains embrace the lake and the cloudy sky in shades of blue increases the feeling of tranquility. The landscape is desolate; the only signs of life are the three fishermen on the shore: they are three small figures painted in different poses and illuminated by the light too. The surface of the water reflects in a spectacular way the surrounding landscape, it is similar to the surface of a mirror. The style, fantastic and almost dreamy, is into the full Germanic Romanticism. Mindful of Caspar David Friedrich's memoirs (Greifswald, 1774 - Dresda, 1840), the author certainly took his cue from the style of the German and the Austrian Romanticism; tangible signs of Romantic painting are the choice of the subject, an uncontaminated Nordic landscape, and the almost fairytale atmosphere that we find in the composition. This wonderful Romantic painting was created by the Austrian artist Josef Brunner (Wien, 1826 - Wien, 1893). Joseph Brunner was the son of Joseph...
