A few weeks ago several Art Renewal Center people met in New York to view some 19th century paintings being auctioned off later that week. There was a lot of amazing stuff to be seen there including some artists I had not been aware of. Here are a few highlights of what I saw there.
A Water Nymph, Leon-Jean-Bastile Perrault, 1898
The Hesitant Betrothed, Auguste Toulmouche, 1866
The FLying CLoud, Montague Dawson
Femme Au Coquillage, William Bouguereau, 1885
Her First Place, George Dunlop Leslie
Young Roman Water Carrier, Diogene-Uylsse-Napoleon Maillart
