Color Print with Antique Frame – Distinguished Man in Black – 8” x 7”

27
Gilded antique frame, some wear on outer corners.

A man in black, looking dapper, head turned over his shoulder. The simplicity of his cape and scarf are contrasted with the detailed depiction of his walking stick and the attention paid to his (somewhat puzzling) facial expression. Definitely a bold painting, but not overwhelming owing to the small size of the picture. Great for rooms with more modern art or East Asian-influenced décor. $14.99

Bearded Man Smoking Cigarette – Charcoal – 23″ x 19″

11

Signed “Patti”, glass plate, 4″ oak frame with cloth accent.

This guy oozes charm, and there’s a hint of mystery too. Is he keeping smoke out of his eyes, or wistfully recounting an old memory? At the very least, he has a face that invites the eyes. Sadly, it seems like he’s been through a bit of a rough patch — there’s some dirt beneath the glass, I think on the underside of the pane. But a man like this is rugged; dirt doesn’t hinder him one bit. $89.99
