American Oil Painting "Nature Morte: Fallen Doves" (1865) by Alfred Wall
Located in Shippensburg, PA
ALFRED S. WALL
United States, 1825-1896
Nature Morte: Fallen Doves (1865)
Oil on canvas signed and dated lower left "Alfred Wall 1865"
ref. 412APH13E
26 1/2" H x 32 1/2" W x 2 1/2" D [frame]
20 1/8" H x 26" W [canvas]
Essay
This finely executed still life painting captures a group of three doves laid upon a forest floor, rendered with meticulous attention to texture and natural detail. The composition follows the tradition of nature morte, a genre that captures the stillness of life through carefully arranged subjects. The artist employs a rich, earthy palette, contrasting the softness of the birds’ feathers with the dense foliage and scattered undergrowth, the colors in the foliage and fallen leaves suggesting an early fall setting for the scene. An almost ecclesiastical light falls on the doves, lighting them and showcasing the realism, drawing attention to the delicate gradations of color in the plumage and the subtle sheen of the wings.
While the subject matter suggests themes of the hunt or the passage of life, the restrained execution avoids overt dramatization. Instead, the scene invites quiet contemplation, emphasizing form, texture, and atmosphere. Works of this nature were historically popular in European and American art, particularly in the 19th century, serving both as studies in naturalism and as reflections on mortality and transience. It is housed in what is almost certainly its first frame, a finely worked gilded composition that complements the painting beautifully with still-life emblems in the corners.
Provenance: Private Collection, Senoia, Georgia
Condition:
Original stretchers in good condition, these only allowing for four keys instead of eight; linen is taut and unlined, in good condition. Ground layer is overall stable with fine age related craquelure throughout. Several losses under the frame rabbet that have associated inpainting. Areas of old overpaint on the dove chests removed during the conservation process. Our conservator removed the old varnish, inpainted the minor losses and applied a traditional Dammar varnish. Frame is likely the original frame and presents with minor losses, chips and overall discoloration to the gilding. A very fine presentation, ready to place.

Born in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, he was the son of English immigrants William and Lucy Wall.

"Four at the Table", 1940s American Scene Lithograph by Woman Artist
Located in Philadelphia, PA
One of the most intriguing and mysterious WPA-era prints we have ever offered, this rare, possibly unique work depicts a group of two women and two men in intense conversation at a crude wood table, in a simple room with cracks in the plaster that show the wood lath underneath. The four almost seem like a group on the lam in a film noir from the period, desperately running from a crime of some kind. Two of the four face downward, deeply focused on the subject at hand, and another is lost in thought, a pipe in his mouth. The fourth is most mysterious of all, facing away from the viewer. but clearly animated and in conversation. The artist was Alice Harold Murphy...

Inspired by a 1928 orchestral composition by George Gershwin, the classic 1951 musical starred Gene Kelly as an American ex-GI who remains in Paris after the war to become an artist and falls for a gamine Parisienne played by a nineteen year old Leslie Caron, who Kelly had spotted performing with the Ballets des Champs-Élysées two years previously.

Robert Frank Untitled from the Americans, 1958, Beats Culture, Black
White
By Robert Frank
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Robert Frank Untitled from the Americans, 1958, Beats Culture, Black
White.
Photogravure print, mid-century, France,wax tissue mounted on conservation matboard.
Influenced by the work of Jakob Tuggener and Bill Brandt, as well as Walker Evans, Frank, a native of Switzerland, Frank was fascinated by documentary photography and the notion and image of "America." Frank secured a Guggenheim fellowship in 1955 to do something new and unconstrained by commercial diktats. "The Americans" was first published in 1958 in France, before its first run in the US in 1959. The photographs were shocking and notable for their distanced view of both high and low strata of American society, creating a complicated portrait of a period that was, then and now, considered to be a skeptical portrait of post-WWII American values but also deeply empathetic and profoundly evocative of ubiquitous loneliness.
Frank found a tension in the gloss of American culture and wealth over race and class differences, which gave his photographs a clear contrast to those of most contemporary American photojournalists, as did his use of unusual focus, low lighting and cropping that deviated from accepted photographic techniques.
Shortly before the book was published in France, Frank returned to the US (1957) and met Jack Kerouac on the sidewalk outside a party. They started chatting. Frank showed him some of his photographs. Kerouac immediately told Frank "Sure, I can write something about these pictures." Kerouac would write the introduction to the American edition of the book, published two years later.

Jimmy Lee Sudduth, (1910–2007) “Untitled (Evening Cityscape, New Orleans)”
By Jimmy Sudduth
Located in West Palm Beach, FL
Jimmy (Lee) Sudduth (1910–2007)
“Untitled (Evening Cityscape, New Orleans)”
48" × 48" (52" × 52" framed) • Signed Upper Left**
A large-scale, highly expressive cityscape by celebrated American Outsider artist Jimmy Lee Sudduth, this 48" × 48" mixed-media painting is executed on the artist’s characteristic hand-prepared panel and signed Jim Sudduth in the upper left corner. Pieces of this size, subject, and clarity are increasingly scarce—particularly examples that evoke one of Sudduth’s most iconic themes: his imaginative visions of New Orleans.
Rendered in bold strokes of house paint, “sweet mud,” and vivid enamel pigments, the composition presents a row of monumental skyscrapers rising dramatically against a deep black evening sky. The buildings—painted in Sudduth’s unmistakable vertical grids of color—tilt and shimmer with energy, capturing the sense of awe he associated with large cities. Though Sudduth’s cityscapes are never literal, this work strongly aligns with his known depictions of New Orleans at night, a city he visited, admired, and frequently reinterpreted in his paintings. The angular, brightly lit towers and the presence of a spire-like structure echo several buildings along New Orleans’ downtown corridor, particularly the postmodern silhouettes near Canal and Poydras.
Along the foreground stands a charming procession of simplified human figures, a classic Sudduth motif associated with the street parades and communal gatherings he connected to New Orleans culture. Their small, rounded forms create a compelling contrast to the towering architecture above—an interplay that speaks to Sudduth’s recurring themes of community, celebration, and the human scale within the modern world.
Sudduth, recognized as one of America’s most important Outsider artists, developed a highly personal visual language rooted in rural Alabama traditions, natural pigments, and improvisational mark-making. His works are held in major institutions, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the American Folk Art Museum, the High Museum of Art, and the Souls Grown Deep Foundation. This painting stands as a strong example of his late-career style: bold, intuitive, rhythmic, and unmistakably his own.
Medium: Mixed media (including “sweet mud,” house paint, and enamel) on artist-prepared panel
Image Size: 48" × 48"
Framed Size: 52" × 52"
Signature: Signed upper left “Jim Sudduth”
Provenance: Private Chicago Collection
Condition: Excellent overall; stable surface; ready to hang.
A visually commanding and highly desirable Sudduth cityscape—rare in scale, rich in color, and evocative of the artist’s beloved nighttime visions of New Orleans. Ideal for collectors of folk art, Southern outsider art...
