Signed with the estate stamp lower right (see photo) From the Estate of the Artist with the artist's estate stamp lower right. C. 1960's Condition: excellent Image/Sheet size: 9 7/8 x 7 5/8 inches William C. Grauer (1895-1985) William C. Grauer (1895-1985) was born in Philadelphia to German immigrant parents. After attending the Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art, Grauer received a four year scholarship from the City of Philadelphia to pursue post graduate work. It was during this time that Grauer began working as a designer at the Decorative Stained Glass Co. in Philadelphia. Following his World War I service in France, Grauer moved to Akron, Ohio where he opened a studio in 1919 with his future brother-in-law, the architect George Evans Mitchell. Soon, the Rorimer-Brooks design company, the developer Van Swerngen brothers, as well as the Sterling Welch and Halle Bros. department stores realized the extent of Grauer's talent and eagerly employed him. Grauer’s work during this time included architectural renderings for Shaker Square, Moreland Courts, and other many other projects commissioned by Cleveland architects. Grauer also remained true to his roots as a master designer of stained glass windows. With his work in such high demand, Grauer received a commission in 1921 to paint murals for the French Grill...

Martini and Rossi Bitter Vintage Cocktail Advertising French Modernist Gouache
Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Title: Martini and Rossi Bitter Vintage Cocktail Advertising French Modernist Gouache Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021) Gouache on artist paper, unframed Size: 15.75 x 11.75 inches (height x width) Provenance: Artists estate, France Condition: good overall condition with light edge wear, gentle handling creases to the margins and minor age toning to the paper; colours remain fresh and well preserved Description: This original gouache advertising design by French modernist artist Guy Nicod was created for Martini Rossi to promote their iconic “Bitter” aperitif. Executed in bold colours and simple yet powerful forms, the composition is both decorative and functional, epitomising the energy of mid-20th-century European commercial art. At the centre of the design stands a tall red bottle of Bitter, its dramatic silhouette set against a glowing red-orange sun and framed by areas of deep black and crisp white. A vibrant cocktail glass filled with Martini Bitter sits prominently in the foreground, complete with a twist of orange peel garnish, while a whole orange beside it reinforces the flavour profile of the drink. Two stylised clouds drift into the scene, softening the graphic edges and adding an atmospheric touch. The strong lettering at the top and bottom — “BITTER” and “MARTINI ROSSI” — is rendered in bold white capitals, giving the design an immediate visual punch. Nicod’s technique with gouache produces opaque, saturated colour fields that make the imagery pop, while the geometric framing and limited palette reflect the aesthetics of 1960s and 70s poster...

Shop Landscape Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

Landscape drawings and watercolors show the world through the lenses of different cultures and perspectives. They were also incredibly important for displaying natural scenes before the invention of photography.

There are many ways to effectively arrange art on your walls so that you’re maximizing your wall space. You can introduce peace and serenity within the confines of a living room or bedroom if landscape drawings and watercolors are part of the art that you choose to bring into a space.

Watercolor landscapes have a rich history dating back to ancient China, where they dominated painting genres by the late Tang dynasty. Ink-on-silk paintings in China featured mountains and large bodies of water as far back as the third century. The Netherlands was home to landscapes as a major theme in painting as early as the 1500s, and by the Renaissance, watercolors had made their way to the West and into European culture, becoming a staple of decorative art.

It wasn’t until the Industrial Revolution that watercolor paints became more widely available and embedded in fine arts. Despite their broad distribution today, some artists have chosen to revive the old craft of preparing their own watercolor pigments, paying homage to the medium’s roots.

The variety of brush combinations and painting methods makes watercolor landscapes some of the most stunning pieces in any collection. Find landscape drawings and watercolors on 1stDibs.
