Sotheby’s had an auction a while back, and these particular pieces caught my eye:
First, from my favorite modern Impressionist, Leonid Afremov:
Then, two pieces from my favorite Academy artist, Eugenio (Eugene) De Blaas:
I like this one, simply because I love rainy Paris street scenes:
And this, from a painter whom I don’t know (but intend to rectify the situation):
Finally, another artist unknown to me, on another favorite topic (gloomy 19th century street scenes):
My only regret is that I don’t have enough walls to hang all the art I’d love to own.
