About the Item

Lesley Powell’s Ancient of Days is a serene architectural study that captures the beauty of aged structures through a refined, painterly lens. This 12 x 18 inch oil painting on cradled panel is rich with moody, earthy tones and subtle texture, inviting the viewer into a quiet moment of contemplation. With its timeless palette and soft natural light, the piece evokes a sense of calm and permanence—perfect for collectors who are drawn to architecture, history, and nuanced, tonal work. Framed to 13 x 19 inches, it’s a sophisticated and versatile piece that pairs beautifully with traditional or transitional interiors. Powell’s painterly brushwork and muted, romantic palette reflect her deep appreciation for European architecture and the atmospheric allure of Southern France. This work is perfect for collectors drawn to travel-inspired art, and for interior designers seeking a piece that brings a sense of calm sophistication and European flair to curated spaces. Ideal for gallery walls, cozy vignettes, or elegant nooks, Cypress and Facade is a serene statement piece that adds warmth, texture, and a touch of wanderlust. Lesley Powell paints in oils with a classical approach to composition and color, but she has a point of view that is fresh and contemporary. Whenever possible, she prefers to paint from life. She often paints on location, composes still lifes in her studio, or works with models. Lesley also enjoys painting interiors. She is inspired by rooms from her own home, as well as by historical homes and museums. Lesley says, “Working from life allows me to see forms without distortion. It also enables me to discern color more truly, and to capture the light and shadow that animate a subject.”

Farm Lane by Bethanne Cople, Oil on birch panel painting landscape
By Bethanne Kinsella Cople
Located in Atlanta, GA
The American landscape – endless skies, calming waters and the varied shores of the East and West coasts - are Cople’s passion and she travels far and wide to capture her subjects. “I love painting the landscape en plein air. In the outdoors, exposed to the sun, wind and rain, you can incorporate not only what you see, but also the sounds and the smells of the landscape. All of this lets me convey the sense of wonder I feel at the subject,” says Cople. Undeterred by nature’s extremes, Cople has painted in blizzards in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah; on the precarious cliffs of Monhegan Island, Maine; in howling gales off the California coast; and, of course, in both summer and winter in her beloved Eastern Shore of Maryland and Potomac River...

Old Tuscan Farmhouse Italian artist Florence Realism Landscape Oil on panel
By Barbara Castrucci
Located in Houston, TX
Pine Trees in the Summer 16" x 12" is an oil painting done in the style of Realism in the artist studio in Florence, Italy. It has a custom frame made in Florence by a master framer. These are the small landscapes Barbara Castrucci painted near her home in Tuscany. Tuscany is a region in central Italy. Its capital, Florence, is home to some of the world’s most recognizable Renaissance art and architecture, including Michelangelo’s "David" statue, Botticelli’s works in the Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo basilica. Its diverse natural landscape encompasses the rugged Apennine Mountains, the island of Elba’s beaches on the Tyrrhenian Sea and Chianti’s olive groves and vineyards. Bio As the daughter of a sculptor, I had my first encounter with art as a child observing my father draw and sculpt. During my high school years I frequented many of the Florentine workshops and studios which inspired me to become a painter. While still in high school I enrolled in old master painting courses devoting my artistic development to discovering and learning the techniques of the great art of the Flemish, Spanish and Italian masters of the 17th century. After graduating from high school I studied the 19th century academic tradition of drawing and painting with Rebecca Harp, Marc Dalessio and Leo Mancini Hresko...

Landscape. Oil on cardboard, Figurative, Architecture, Muted colors, Polish art
By Magdalena Spasowicz
Located in Warsaw, PL
20th century figurative landscape oil on cardboard painting by Polish artist Magdalena Spasowicz. Artwork is in classic style, it resembles impressionism. Composition is painted with wide brush strokes. Colors are muted. Artwork depicts a cityscape MAGDALENA SPASOWICZ Studied painting under prof. Jan Cybis and graphic arts with prof. Tadeusz Kulisiewicz at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. She received her diploma in 1953. Her works have been presented in numerous exhibitions in Poland and abroad, among others in Warsaw, London, New York, Bratislava, Washington, Moscow, Berlin, Budapest, and are to be found in private and public collections around the world. In 2017 two individual exhibition of the artists took place - at the Regional Museum in Kozienice Palace and at the Museum of Western Mazowsze in Zyrardow. Magdalena Spasowicz has been spending every single moment on painting for many years now. Most of her paintings are monochromatically coloured landscapes, of places where eye cheers soul with a sight close to heart, known and well remembered. French painting of Pissarro and Utrillo has been a very important inspiration for Magdalena Spasowicz. A desire to still-frame every moment when the artist meets Nature and beloved places is an imperative, which obliges to come back to canvas and paint, paint with a total devotion. The artistry of the places represented in the paintings of Magdalena...
