William Fisher (1891 - 1985) William Fisher was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1891. He studied at the Brooklyn Institute of Art and Science and at Pratt Institute. Following service as an ambulance driver in WWI, he remained in Europe after the war and studied painting in Rome, Italy for one year. Upon his return from Rome, to New Jersey, he pursued his painting and began to teach small art classes. In the 1920's Fisher became a successful illustrator. His work appeared in Saturday Evening Post, Mc Calls, Harpers and other popular magazines. He later did pen and ink sketches for the Villager, a weekly Greenwich Village newspaper. Microfilmed pages of the Villager are preserved in New York University's Washington Square Library. His sketches also appeared on the cover of the Gotham Guide, which was sold Fridays at news stands in Manhattan. In partnership with Margaret Kilburn, an artist and crafts person, Fisher opened an art gallery and school at 33 West 8th St in NYC during the 1930s. They also opened a summer art gallery and school in 1949 in Kennebunkport, Maine, which ran for many years, and, after the NY gallery closed (around 1952), they made a full time commitment to living and working in Kennebunkport, Maine. Fisher was the recipient of over 100 awards. His work was widely exhibited in Philadelphia, Pa., Montclair, Trenton, and Newark, NJ, the Currier Gallery in New Hampshire and the Brick Store Museum in Kennebunk, Maine. William Fisher and Margaret Kilburn were familiar and beloved figures in Kennebunkport. They taught generations of local children, and they participated in numerous exhibits with other artists, both in the Kennebunkport area and throughout Maine. Mr Fisher always insisted on marching in the local Memorial Day parade, until he was well in his 90's, because he didn't want to ride in a car provided for older veterans. Many homes in the Kennebunks have his works, including members of the Bush family, and they were purchased by numerous out of state and Canadian summer visitors. There are several examples of his works in the Kennebunkport Town Offices and in local churches. Fisher loved to paint "big" canvases, usually local Maine scenes...

"Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin Hoffman
"Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin Hoffman

"Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin Hoffman

By Martin Hoffman

Located in Frederiksberg C, DK

Introducing "Ribbon," an extraordinary painting from the "Jersey Meadow Series" by Martin Hoffman in the 1970s. From the 1970s onwards, Hoffman's career showcased a masterful combination of beautiful painting techniques and challenging subject matter. This contemporary painting depicts an abandoned landscape with a hypnotic blue plastic ribbon at its center. Hoffman's landscape creates an almost mesmerizing effect, where the subject matter of destruction and decay is presented poetically. The warm shades of grey with hints of blue, brown, and purple create a limited yet powerful palette that enhances the melancholic beauty of the painting. The painting measures 151cm x 202cm / 59.5in x 79.5in and is signed 'Martin Hoffman' on the reverse side of the canvas. It is titled 'Ribbon' and is dated '73.' Additionally, the artist specifies that the painting is part of the 'Jersey Meadow Series.' It is ready to hang and comes with a silver-painted frame. The condition of the painting is great, with hardly any signs of wear. The frame has a few scratches but is otherwise in good condition. Artist Bio: Martin Hoffman was a versatile artist and illustrator, mostly known for his paintings. He was a self-taught painter and a gifted drummer who had worked as an art director for the Miami News, Graphic Arts Inc., and Steiner & Wall Advertising. In 1973, Martin Hoffman landed his first solo exhibition at the OK Harris...

Mid Century Barcelona Harbor Sailboats Mediterranean Impressionist Oil Painting

Mid Century Barcelona Harbor Sailboats Mediterranean Impressionist Oil Painting

By Rafael Duran Benet

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Mid Century Barcelona Harbor Sailboats Mediterranean Impressionist Oil Painting Artist: Rafael Durán Benet Medium: Oil on canvas laid on board Dimensions: 50 × 61 cm (19.7 × 24 in) Signature: Signed lower right Frame: Unframed Condition: Very good condition. Stable paint surface with visible original brushwork Origin: Spain Period: Mid-20th century Expressive Mediterranean harbor scene depicting sailboats moored in the port of Barcelona by Spanish painter Rafael Durán Benet. The composition captures the luminous waterfront architecture reflected across calm harbor waters, structured by vertical masts and rhythmic dock lines that organize the pictorial space with clarity and balance. Loose impressionist brushwork and a refined palette of blues, violets and warm reflected tones create a vibrant atmospheric surface characteristic of mid-century Mediterranean coastal painting. Particularly notable is the treatment of reflections, executed through layered strokes that enhance depth and movement while reinforcing the decorative strength of the composition. Barcelona harbor scenes remain among the most desirable subjects within Spanish Mediterranean painting due to their architectural identity and strong interior presence. This work belongs to the Catalan Mediterranean luminist tradition associated with Joaquim Mir and Eliseu Meifrèn. Its reflective harbor treatment also connects with the broader European marine painting lineage of Paul Signac and Henri Le Sidaner. Rafael Durán Benet (Barcelona, 1931–2015) was a Spanish painter recognized for Mediterranean harbor scenes, coastal landscapes and urban views of Barcelona. Working within the Catalan postwar impressionist tradition, he developed a luminous pictorial language centered on reflections, atmosphere and architectural shoreline compositions. His paintings of the Barcelona waterfront remain among the most characteristic subjects of his production and are held today in private collections across Spain and Europe.

Parc des Buttes-Chaumont Gouache, Post-Impressionist, Framed, 1930s

By Lucien Génin

Located in London, GB

'Parc des Buttes-Chaumont' in Paris, gouache on art paper, by Lucien Génin (circa 1930s). A charming depiction of well turned out Parisians enjoying a day at the park. Boaters, strollers and swans all co-mingle around the peaceful lake. The reflection of the rocky bluff in the water is superbly treated by Génin. It's a cheerful and uplifting image of days-gone-by in 1930s Paris. The park takes its name from the 'bare hill' (chauve-mont) that once occupied the site. It became a place where gypsum was mined, and where the limestone was quarried to be used in buildings in Paris and the United States. Worse, though, it was a site that also became a dumping ground. Luckily, during the 19th-century renovation of Paris under Napoleon III, chauve-mont was chosen as a place for a large park, as part of the emperor's fascination with endowing Paris with green spaces. The artificial lake created at that time wraps around a hilly central island. The lake attracts waterfowl and other birds and is stocked with fish. The 19th-century planners cleaned up the site and added tons of soil to fill the pits left by a limestone mining operation. Then dynamite was used to "sculpt" the site into the craggy shapes seen today, including the 50-metre-high central hill with cliffs, an interior grotto, pinnacles, and arches. Up on top, overlooking the rest of the park - and depicted in this artwork - is a small, round belvedere, based on the Roman Temple of Vesta in Italy. From that spot you can see a lovely view of Montmartre and the white cupolas of the Sacre-Coeur. The painting is in very good condition. It has been newly framed and glazed with museum-quality glass (anti-reflective and UV protection) to preserve this significant artwork for decades to come. Dimensions with frame: H 62 cm / 24.4" W 76 cm / 29.9" Dimensions without frame: H 48.5 cm / 19.1" W 63 cm / 24.8" About the Artist: After the devastation of the First World War, Lucien Génin (1894 - 1953) left his provincial home in the autumn of 1919 to find his fortune among the lively Parisians in the heart of Montmartre. Génin befriended the painters Frank Will, Gen Paul, Émile Boyer, Marcel Leprin...
