A "theorem" painting on ivory velvet in a rosewood veneer frame using the technique of stencil painting. The painting is delightful and the highlights refined. The floral arrangement features tulips, roses, morning glories and other flowers and two butterflies. Although there is minor discoloration in the velvet fabric, the art has apparently never been removed from the original frame. Ca 1850- 1870. 23 1/2 X 15"

An oil painting dated 1960 depicting a side-wheeler riverboat, signed E.H. McGee. McGee, a 20th Century American artist, has signed and dated the work lower right.

A fine oil of great skill and sensitivity of Sarah Howland by Chester Harding. This portrait comes to us through the Howland family of Alexndria, Virginia and Baltimore, MD where it was obtained from one of the Howland family members.

The site measurements of the canvas are 16 1/2" X 14 1/2" with ...click for details
