From Kiev with love. 1956 Ukrainian interpretation of Maurice Utrillo(1883-1955)We think Utrillo would have applauded the juxtaposition! (A portion of the sale of each piece of Ukrainian art will be donated to the Ukrainian Relief Fund .)
surrounded by a 15 x 18 French oil -gilt frame c. 1920.
Borrowing a page from Utrillo’s notebook (Maurice Utrillo , 1883–1955), Yuri fully develops this charming, almost square(23 x24) village street view using flat and solid façades connected to one another by trails of color, not unlike Cezanne constructed his landscapes. Yuri (Gusev, 1928-2016) was familiar with all of his French bohemian predecessors, and seemed comfortable with each in his cityscapes as well as rural landscapes.
Signed and dated in Cyrillic on verso in contemporary frame,
Cheerful, warm and inviting… All of the above! Impasto oil on linen”Sevilla Antiqua”. Great juxtaposition of salmon, pink and ochre. Really appreciate the way the artist has been able to achieve the illusion of flaking paint. Signed lower right “Luis ……”. Not sure about the rest!
Why are we repeatedly drawn to this period of American life and architecture? Was it the calm before the storm? Definitely a gentler, simpler time. “ Expansive View of the City from Central Park”,
Oil on artist board by the plain air cityscaper John T. Robertson and dated 1932,
Nos.tal.gia( From Gk “nostos, return home”). Perhaps Herschel M. Goodrich was experiencing a mood of nostalgia when he painted this delightful “Climbing Roses” in 1900. Recently transplanted from New England to San Francisco, he must have been remembering with fondness a scene from his earlier days. Are we not all feeling a bit of the same nostalgia today?

Parting shots..oil on canvas, “Vue, Sacré Coeur”. An unsigned portrait of one of most loved cathedrals in Paris presented in its original highly carved frame. Described and dated illegibly on verso 1954.

Gin hand carved the majority of his frames! 25×22 in the original frame,
Statement…and Drama! “Six Windows “. Unsigned oil on artist board, heavy impasto view of farmhouse in open field somewhere between Maurice Utrillo (1883-1955) and Maurice de Vlaminck(1876-1958). Both artists’ generational changing styles can be seen in this painting…whimsical and yet serious.
