This lovely impressionist painting portrays what appears to be a family outing or picnic. There are many beautifully dressed women with their children in a park setting. Oddly, what appears to be missing are men, or their husbands. Perhaps it’s a women’s organization that included their young children. The scene must depict late spring or summer, given the foliage and their beautiful dresses. The colors are bright and cheerful and the late impressionist style is clearly evident. The artist appears to have signed the painting lower left, but it is very difficult to completely decipher. The date, 1925, seems to be clearer. All in all, this work is a one-of-a-kind period painting that will enhance any sophisticated room or setting. The frame is a soft lemon gold period cove frame that may be just a bit older than the work by about 10 years. This work has been recently professionally repaired, cleaned and varnished. Both the painting and the frame are in very good condition. There are a few professional repairs to the canvas, only visible from the patches shown on the backside. The frame has a few minor blemishes here and there, expected with its age. The canvas measures 18” x 22” and the overall framed dimensions are 24 1/2” x 28 1/2”. Visible on the reverse side is a vintage label that reads “Art...

This original vintage oil painting by Jon Blanchette (1908–1987), titled “Harbor Master’s House, Santa Cruz, California,” beautifully captures the charm of California’s coastline. Painted in the 1950s–1960s, this serene American Impressionist landscape depicts Santa Cruz’s coastal cottages, swaying palm trees, and tranquil harbor views, evoking the relaxed elegance of mid-century California life. Rendered in soft, harmonious tones of blue, green, beige, and white with warm accents of red and brown, Blanchette’s brushwork reflects his mastery of light and atmosphere. The painting is signed lower right and titled on the verso, and comes in a custom dark brown frame.
