"Farmyard Morning": Large Antique Oil on Canvas Painting of Chickens by Louis J. Cruise, Dated 1911 A substantial and atmospheric early 20th-century oil on canvas painting, signed and dated by the noted Pennsylvania artist Louis J. Cruise (1861–1945) in 1911. This delightful genre scene captures the quiet activity of a traditional American farmyard, characterized by the artist's signature realistic style and serene composition. The scene depicts a flock of chickens foraging in golden straw outside a rustic stone and timber barn. A magnificent rooster stands alert on a hay mound, watching over hens of various breeds—white, speckled, and brown—while one chicken emerges from the dark interior of the farm building. In the background, a wooden rail fence separates the yard from a lush green pasture and distant woods, with small birds perching casually on the rails and pecking at the straw. The work is housed in a wide, impressive gilt frame. Markings: Signature: Signed and dated in the lower left corner: "L.J. Cruise / 1911". Condition: Good antique condition. The canvas is well-composed and executed, capturing the play of light on the landscape.

Eugene Berman - "Paludia" (1967-1968) Type : Huile sur toile Signature : Monogrammée en bas au centre, contresignée au dos Date de création : 1967-Rome-1968 Dimensions : 67 cm x 54 cm Encadrement : Rare cadre Troubadour en papier mâché, circa 1840 Expositions et provenance : Étiquette d’exposition de la Galerie Lucie Weill au dos Annotations de la Galerie Forni à Bologne Bibliographie : Galerie Lucie Weill, Les Néo-romantiques: Christian Bérard, Léonid et Eugène Berman, Pavel Tchelitchew, Paris, 1971. "Paludia" est une huile sur toile réalisée par Eugène Berman entre 1967 et 1968 à Rome. L'œuvre, représentative de son style néo-romantique, est empreinte de mélancolie et de poésie, avec une touche onirique caractéristique de son approche théâtrale de la composition. Son cadre troubadour en papier mâché, rare et datant de circa 1840, confère à l'œuvre une aura historique et une mise en valeur singulière, dans l'esprit des cabinets de curiosités qu'affectionnait l'artiste. Biographie d'Eugène Berman (1899-1972) : Né le 4 novembre 1899 à Saint-Pétersbourg, Eugène Berman est un peintre et décorateur de théâtre d’origine russe, naturalisé américain. Il est le frère de Léonide Berman. Son éducation artistique débute en Europe occidentale, avec des formations en Allemagne, Suisse et France, où il suit les cours de Pavel Naumov et Sergey Gruzenberg entre 1914 et 1918. Après avoir quitté la Russie en 1918, il étudie à l'Académie Ranson à Paris, sous la direction de Maurice Denis et Édouard Vuillard. Inspiré par Giorgio de Chirico et Picasso, il expose ses œuvres (portraits et paysages) aux Salons d’Automne et des Tuileries entre 1923 et 1927. Il promeut, aux côtés de son frère, une forme de peinture poétique et symboliste. En 1935, il émigre aux États-Unis, où il travaille comme décorateur de théâtre tout en poursuivant son œuvre picturale. Il devient citoyen américain en 1937. Il meurt le 14 décembre 1972, à Rome ou New York. Cabinet de curiosités et collection personnelle : Eugène Berman possédait une importante collection d’objets anciens, comprenant : Céramiques, statuettes, sculptures, verrerie, textiles, tapis de diverses civilisations (précolombienne, africaine, de Nouvelle-Guinée, de Colombie-Britannique, égyptienne, copte, grecque, étrusque, romaine). Mobilier italien et latino-américain du XVIe et XVIIe siècles. Œuvres d’amis artistes, dont Mirko, Ernst, Cagli, Cremoni. Sa collection fut installée dans un appartement romain, transformé en un véritable cabinet de curiosités, situé au dernier étage d’un palais proche de la Piazza del Popolo. ------------ Eugène Berman - "Paludia" (1967-1968) Type: Oil on canvas Signature: Monogrammed at the bottom center, countersigned on the back Creation Date: 1967-Rome-1968 Dimensions: 67 cm x 54 cm Frame: Rare Troubadour-style papier-mâché frame, circa 1840 Exhibitions and Provenance: Exhibition label from Galerie Lucie Weill on the back Annotations from Forni Gallery in Bologna Bibliography: Galerie Lucie Weill, The Neo-Romantics: Christian Bérard, Léonid and Eugène Berman, Pavel Tchelitchew, Paris, 1971. "Paludia" is an oil on canvas created by Eugène Berman between 1967 and 1968 in Rome. Representative of his neo-romantic style, the piece exudes melancholy and poetic introspection, with a dreamlike quality reflecting his theatrical approach to composition. The rare papier-mâché Troubadour frame, dating from circa 1840, enhances the historical aura of the work, aligning with the artist’s deep appreciation for curiosities and antiquities. Biography of Eugène Berman (1899-1972): Born on November 4, 1899, in Saint Petersburg, Eugène Berman was a Russian-born American painter and theater designer. He was the brother of Léonide Berman. He received his early artistic education in Western Europe, training in Germany, Switzerland, and France, with studies under Pavel Naumov and Sergey Gruzenberg between 1914 and 1918. Leaving Russia in 1918, he studied at Académie Ranson in Paris, under the guidance of Maurice Denis and Édouard Vuillard. Influenced by Giorgio de Chirico and Picasso, he exhibited his works (portraits and landscapes) at the Salons d’Automne and des Tuileries between 1923 and 1927. Alongside his brother, he championed a poetic and symbolic form of painting. In 1935, he emigrated to the United States, working as a theater designer while continuing to produce allegorical works. He became an American citizen in 1937. He passed away on December 14, 1972, in Rome or New York.

Sumptuous, very large, original oil on canvas board, still life painting depicting a banquet table. This painting is a virtuoso display of how artist William Frederick Foster (1883-1953) captures texture in paint. You can see this in the mouth watering fruit, crustacea and other samplings laid upon the table as well as the masterfully painted reflective surfaces of the copper tea pot, wine bottle and the gathered table cloth. Painting is framed in the original wood frame. Painting framed measures 34.5” high x 46” wide x 1.5” deep. Painting unframed measures 30.5” high x 42.5” wide. William Foster was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1883. He became a noted figure painter and illustrator, living the last twenty-one years of his career in Los Angeles, California. At age 12, he moved with his family to Colorado, but in 1898, he returned to Cincinnati and enrolled at the Art Academy where he studied with Joseph Henry Sharp and Frank Duveneck. His early ambition was to be a violinist, but he was re-focused on fine art when he saw a painting by Albert Ceck Wenzell. In 1902, he went to New York City where he painted scenery for theaters, auditoriums, and large department stores. He also studied at the New York School with Robert Henri and William Merritt Chase, and from 1903 to 1931, he worked as an illustrator and with a brief teaching stint in 1919 at the Art Institute of Chicago. In 1903, he sold his first illustration, a depiction of high society, to Life magazine, and the style was very similar to Wenzell. From that time, he worked for most of the major magazines including Collier's, The Saturday Evening Post and Harper's Monthly. In 1926, he won the National Academy of Design's Thomas B. Clarke Prize for the best figure composition painted in the United States by a non-academician. The following year, he was voted an Associate Member based on his recognition for a figure work titled The Girl in Brown. During World War I, he operated his own ambulance in France as a member of the American Volunteer Motor Ambulance Corps and also received mention as a camoufleur artist. Returning to the U.S., he resumed his illustration work and moved to Chicago, where he taught at the Art Institute. Foster moved to Los Angeles in 1932 and devoted his energy to painting, exhibiting and teaching. He taught at the Chouinard School of Art in Los Angeles and gave private classes in his studio. He also worked on a mural project at the Hearst estate...
