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...

Very fine example of the artistry of the master still life painter of his day, Edward Chalmers Leavitt. Signed lower left and dated 1875. Condition is very good. Provenance: Christie’s Auction, New York, December 2, 1992, lot 228. Overall in period replica gold leaf deep cove gallery frame 25.75 by 17.75 inches. Edward C. Leavitt (1842-1904) worked in Providence but is also associated with the Fall River School of still life painting through the influence of, and affinity of his style to, the work of Robert S. Dunning. Leavitt was a student of landscape painter James Morgan Lewin, a founder of Providence’s artistic “group of 1855.” Leavitt’s work is known for its realism, rich coloration, sharp focus and careful finish. His paintings of fruit and flowers incorporate ornate decorative pieces such as silver or bronze ewers, salvers, tankards, or plates on carved and polished tables. Leavitt was a prolific artist, exhibiting frequently at the National Academy of Design, the Boston Art Club, and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. His work inspired other still life painters in Providence, resulting in that city’s own still life tradition, including artists such as John Clinton Spencer, Bryant Chapin...

Allegorical Garden Scene (The Temptation) — Signed Oil on Canvas, 20 Century Swiss School Dimension without frame : 81 x 80.5 x 4 cm A refined and evocative oil on canvas by Swiss painter Benjamin Vautier, depicting an allegorical scene traditionally interpreted as The Temptation. The composition presents a young shepherd-like figure offering a fruit to a nude female — an allusion to Adam and Eve — while two additional female figures observe, set within an idyllic, Edenic landscape populated by symbolic fauna, including a striking white peacock. Vautier demonstrates exceptional sensitivity in the modeling of the human form, rendered with academic precision softened by a poetic, almost symbolist atmosphere. The lush vegetation, filtered light, and harmonious palette of deep greens, warm flesh tones, and earthy hues create a serene yet subtly charged narrative space. The artist’s controlled brushwork and nuanced tonal transitions reflect his training within the European academic tradition while revealing a distinct personal lyricism. Signed lower right, the painting embodies the 20th-century fascination with classical mythology, biblical allegory, and Arcadian pastoral themes. Works of this subject and quality are increasingly sought after for both private collections and sophisticated interior settings.
