Copy of the Dutch Painter Gerard Dou. Untitled Interior Scene. Oil on canvas, 14 x 12 in., framed to an overall size of 16 x 14¾ in. A middleaged couple is viewed through the arch of a window as they prepare a meal. The man peels a potato while the woman drinks a glass of amber-colored liquid. A fish lies on the table in front of her and vegetables lie on the window sill. Among the traits for which Dou (1613-1675) is known are his fine brushwork and his use of chiaroscuro; he often painted subjects by candlelight. A fine rendering from Dou's original painting. A note on the back of this painting states that the original is in a Dutch museum.
Estimated Value $800 - 1,000.

Lot 386
Scenic River Vista in Oil. Italian or German, c. late 18th - 19th century. A woman, with a bundle wrapped in red cloth beside her, sits near remnants of ancient ruins fallen into a river, beneath tall trees amid a hill-studded landscape. Old, darkening varnish has added a somber cast to this rather airy work. Painting shows signs of poor storage and handling, with two small holes at upper left field, some spots of rubbing here and there, and flaking to the bottom edge. A cleaning and moderate conservation would do wonders for the piece. Signed in red at lower left, but faint under darkened varnish, and not easily read. Size: 21" x 16-3/4". Charming work, likely done for the tourist trade.
Estimated Value $400 - 600.
