19th Century Enrico Coleman Signed Painting
By Enrico Coleman
Located in Roma, IT
An important painting by one of the most representative Italian artists of the 19th century, Enrico Coleman.
It depicts a village most probably from Lazio, perhaps a glimpse of Anticoli Corrado, the town famous for the attractiveness of its models, or rather Subiaco, his mother's birthplace.
The atmosphere here is typical of the XXVs of the Roman Campagna of which Enrico Coleman was probably the most important exponent.
The reason for this can also be seen in this small masterpiece that captures the washerwomen in their occupation immersed in a poetically bucolic atmosphere; a sky of unparalleled blue stands out in the background.
Signed below on the right
This painting, never before on the market, comes from an important Italian private collection and is beautified by an impressive antique frame in gilded wood, in almost perfect condition.
Every item of our Gallery, upon request, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Sabrina Egidi official Expert in Italian furniture for the Chamber of Commerce of Rome and for the Rome Civil Courts.
Oil painting on paper
Enrico Coleman (21 or 25 June 1846 – 14 February 1911) was an Italian painter of British nationality.
He was the son of the English painter Charles Coleman and brother of the less well-known Italian painter Francesco Coleman.
He painted, in oils and in watercolours, the landscapes of the Campagna Romana and the Agro Pontino; he was a collector, grower and painter of orchids. Because of his supposedly Oriental air, he was known to his friends as "Il Birmano", the Burmese.
Enrico Coleman was born in Rome in June 1846.
He was the fourth child of the English painter Charles Coleman, who had come to Rome in 1831 and settled there permanently in 1835, and of a famous artist's model from Subiaco, Fortunata Segadori (or Segatori), whom he had married in 1836.
Coleman was initially taught by his father, did study at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome.
Following the mocking reception of Una mandria di bufali nelle paludi pontine, a naturalistic painting of a herd of buffaloes in the Pontine marshes, at the International Artist's Club in 1872,he reportedly began to paint genre subjects in the manner of the then-fashionable Mariano Fortuny, although no works showing the influence of the Spanish painter are known.
At the instigation of Nino Costa, he soon returned to the depiction of the people, animals and landscapes of the Campagna Romana and the Agro Pontino.
Coleman was lover of orchids, which he painted, collected and cultivated.
An 1894 watercolour of orchids is in the Galleria Comunale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome.
Coleman had a remarkable collection of indigenous orchids, which he cultivated himself in his house at 6 via Valenziana and the botanist Fabrizio Cortesi named the hybrid Orchis x colemanii Cortesi in his honour.
In 1875, Coleman was among the founding members of the Società degli Acquarellisti, the Roman society of watercolourists; he participated in the society's first exhibition in 1876, and continued to exhibit with them until 1907. In 1878 he was elected an honorary member of the Société Royale Belge des Aquarellistes, the Belgian royal society of watercolourists, with which he participated in the Salon de Paris in 1879 and to the 4th Esposizione Nazionale di Belle Arti, or national fine art show, of Turin in 1880, and to that of Milan in the following year; he showed works in London in 1882 and in Rome in 1883.
In 1885, Coleman was among the founding members of the group In Arte Libertas, of which Nino Costa was the leading force and the other founding members were Vincenzo Cabianca...

Korea Etching by Deok Sung Kang, numbered 75/75
By Duck Shin
Located in Valladolid, ES
Gorgeous Etching, with aquatint and color matrix by the South Korean artist Deok Sung Kang, made around 1990. The works of this artist, although they tend towards abstraction, are really inspired by nature. They illustrate a very personal vision of everyday objects and phenomena. The creative brilliance of this artist is widely recognized.
In this case, the work is divided into two areas, the first of which is dominated by a red color, which represents a pair of red roses using a rather realistic technique. However, in contrast, a larger area of intense blue inspired by natural motifs and splashed with a red spot.
About the artist
Deok Sung Kang is a painter and printmaker of South Korean origin. He studied Fine Arts in his native country, although he later attended the École de Beaux Arts in Paris and, later, in 1989, he settled in Madrid, where he continued his studies at the Complutense University of Madrid. The highlight of his facet as a painter are his prints, often using rice paper as a support.
Most of his works have been exhibited at fairs and exhibitions in Spain, but he has also done some in his country, such as at the Art Museum in Seoul.
About the technique
The origin of prints in Asian art has its foundations in the knowledge of printing texts on woodblocks, around the 8th century. Over time, it evolved and this new art became accessible to the majority of the public, opening the doors to the enjoyment of art and collecting, which until then was limited only to merchants, rich warriors...
Gprgeous Etching is a type of engraving, which is made using a metal plate (iron, zinc or copper) as a base, which is covered with a light layer of a protective varnish or acid-resistant wax. The engraver draws with a stylus on the layer of varnish, reaching just up to the metal plate. Later, the plate is dipped in etching, hence its name, a solution based on water and nitric acid, which corrodes the copper in the areas where it was not protected by the varnish. The immersion time is what determines the depth of the line.
Metal plates engraved with this technique can be printed with the desired ink colour, prepared by combining various pigments and binders.

Georges Braque Framed 'Paysage à l'Estaque' Color Lithography, circa 1906
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Step into the enchanting world of Georges Braque with the original 'Paysage à l'Estaque' color lithograph, a masterpiece painted in France circa 1906. This lithograph, edited and printed in France in the 1970s, captures the essence of Braque's artistic brilliance and is a testament to his significant contributions to Fauvism and the development of Cubism.
Framed to perfection and signed in the stone, this lithograph is not just a piece of art; it's a window into the mind of a major 20th-century French painter. Georges Braque's work between 1908 and 1912 is closely associated with that of his colleague Pablo Picasso, and this piece reflects the indistinguishable nature of their Cubist works...

Hans Burkhardt Signed Swiss California Original Midcentury Abstract Painting
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderful, highly engaging large original abstract female nude pastel painting/drawing by Swiss/ American/ Californian painter-artist Hans Burkhardt.
This work, titled "Seated Female" is hand-signed and dated (1958) by the artist.
An original, one-of-a-kind, and unusually large work by Burkhardt. Would be the crown jewel to any collection of his work or a stunning stand-alone art accent piece in about any setting. His earlier abstract female forms are becoming rare and harder to find.
Hans Burkhardt was born in 1904 in Basel, Switzerland. At the age of 20, he immigrated to New York to work with his father. From 1925 to 1928 he attended the Cooper Union School of the Arts, where he befriended mentor Arshile Gorky and Willem de Kooning—sharing Gorky's studio from 1928 to 1937. In 1937 he moved to Los Angeles, California.
Burkhardt held his first solo exhibition in 1939 at Stendahl Gallery in Los Angeles. In 1945 he had a highly acclaimed solo exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum. Burkhardt spent most of the 1950s working in Mexico. Art critics of the time considered him a "great Mexican master” alongside Orozco, Rivera, and Siqueiros, and Rufino Tamayo admired his work. He returned to Los Angeles in the 1960s to create some of the most powerful examples of Abstract Expressionism of the time. During this time he also became well known for his richly drawn pastel abstractions of the human figure of which this original work certainly qualifies.
He died in Los Angeles in 1994.
Burkhardt's solo shows include:
1939: Stendahl Gallery, Los Angeles, March 27 – April 17
1945: Hans Burkhardt, Los Angeles County Museum of Art
1951: Museo de Bellas Artes, Guadalajara, Mexico: Exhibicion de Pinturas Modernas; Comara Gallery, Los Angeles
1953: Fisher Gallery, University of Southern California, Los Angeles
1957: Pasadena Art Museum, California: Ten Year Retrospective, June 14 – July 14;
