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...

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...

Egron Sellif Lundgren (1815–1875) Sweden Resting Dromedar, 1861 watercolour heightened with white unframed 21 x 29.2 cm (8 ¼ x 11 ½ in.) framed 40 x 48 cm (15 ¾ x 18 ⅞ in.) Provenance: Sale, Stockholm, Bukowskis, 12 December 1894, lot 42; Signe and Ernst Trygger (1857–1943), Villa Trygger, Stockholm. Ernst Trygger was Swedish Prime Minister (1923–24), Minister of Foreign Affairs (1928–30) and University Chancellor (1926–37); A Swedish private collection. Literature: Förteckning på oljemålningar, aquareller och handteckningar m.m. av Egron Lundgren utställda i Akademien för de fria konsterna, 1876, no. 259. Karl Asplund, Egron Lundgren, Vol. II, 1940, p. 40, note 1, p. 166. Exhibited: The Royal Academy, Egron Lundgren, 10 April 1876, no. 259. Sveriges Allmänna Konstförening, Memorial Exhibition, February 1915, no. 70, Hvilande kameler (owner Ernst Trygger). The Royal Academy, Svenska Akvareller (Swedish Watercolor Exhibition), 1925, no. 224, Vilande kameler (owner Signe Trygger). Essay: This delicate watercolour, executed during Lundgren’s first journey to Egypt in the winter of 1861–62, depicts a resting dromedary in the shade at Giza. Painted in transparent washes with touches of white gouache, the work captures the intense desert light and atmosphere with a remarkable immediacy. The reclining animal dominates the composition, rendered in warm ochres and browns against a cool, shadowy background, while highlights on its saddle and coat give the scene a subtle radiance. The quiet stillness of the subject reflects Lundgren’s sensitivity to the everyday motifs of the Orient, which he observed and painted directly on site. Lundgren travelled to Egypt in the company of two British artists, Frank Dillon (1823-1909) and George Price Boyce...
