This beautiful piece of art work was done by the Levy Brothers in 1909. It's a wonderful painting of a New York City street. I love this piece because it shows a different side of NYC. New York City is a BUSY city; it's the city that never sleeps! In this painting, there is nobody around, and it looks incredibly peaceful. It truly shows the beauty of New York, and it shows off the scenery very well!







Both of these are beautiful paintings of scenery from Vienna, Austria. The top painting was done by C. Ledermann Jr. (1899-1909). The second painting was done by P. Ledermann (1910-1919).



This was a very famous Japanese painting. It was used in an exhibition entitled "Photography in Japan (1860-1910) Masterpieces", and the exhibition was held in Venice, Italy. The exhibition was dedicated to the great Japanese and European performers who worked in the field of photography between 1860 and the very early years of the 20th century.




This painting was done by Karl Witkowski. He was an American painter between 1860-1910. This painting was done in 1890 and it is called "Stealing Apples." I like this painting because it's nothing short of it's name. It's two young boys, stealing apples, and you can tell they're willing to do anything to steal them, because they're climbing through a wooden fence (and getting stuck while at it).



This last painting was done by James Goodwyn Clonney. He was a English-born, American artist between 1812-1867. This painting was done in 1845 and it is called "The Sleigh Ride."

  1. This is very odd: i absolutely commented on your blog, but it's not here.
    You like realism, or at least seem to. did you know the first 3 are postcards? Where did you find the images? Who are the artists?
