This exceptional antique oil painting on canvas by renowned American artist Henry Peters Gray (1819–1877) depicts W. P. Wright, Esq. in a dignified three-quarter-length portrait painted in 1860. The sitter wears a dark formal coat over a crisp white shirt and brown waistcoat, while his right arm rests against a rich red upholstered surface. His full beard, composed expression, and direct yet contemplative gaze reflect the confidence and refinement associated with mid-19th-century American portraiture. Gray carefully models the sitter’s face through subtle transitions of light and shadow, contrasting the warm flesh tones and reddish-brown beard against the restrained dark background. Finely observed details—including the folded handkerchief, waistcoat chain, and ring—add individuality without distracting from the portrait’s formal presence. An important handwritten inscription on the reverse identifies both the sitter and artist and records the circumstances of the painting: “For W. P. Wright Esq. Portrait from Henry Peters Gray. Painted at Pittsfield, Mass., August 1860.” This period inscription provides valuable direct provenance and securely connects the portrait with Gray’s documented career. The painting is presented in a traditional period gilt frame with a beaded inner border and is ready to hang. 🖼️ Measurements: Painting: 25" W × 30" H Framed: 30" W × 35" H ✍️ Signature: The portrait is identified by a handwritten inscription on the reverse naming Henry Peters Gray, the sitter W. P. Wright, Esq., the location Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and the date August 1860. ✅ Condition: Good antique condition with minor age-appropriate surface wear. The period gilt frame shows light wear consistent with age. Please review all photographs carefully for a complete assessment. 📦 Shipping: Professionally packed and shipped the same business day from Florida.

On offer is a classic 19th-century or early 20th-century marine painting that captures a serene, atmospheric scene of traditional maritime life. The work depicts a harbor or coastal waterway at dawn or dusk, with multiple gaff-rigged fishing vessels resting on calm waters. The central focus is a large, dark-sailed fishing boat, paired with a smaller rowboat carrying two silhouetted fishermen in the foreground. The piece utilizes a Tonalist style, relying on a narrow palette of muted ochre, brown, and dark gray tones to build depth. The warm, golden light piercing through the heavy, hazy skies creates a dramatic yet tranquil atmosphere. The soaring seagulls on the right add motion to an otherwise still, reflective seascape. The painting is housed in a massive, highly ornate Baroque or Rococo Revival gilt gesso frame. Measuring 3 inches deep, it features heavy scrollwork, acanthus leaves, and corner flourishes. The minor chips and exposed white gesso are common for authentic antique gesso frames...

Robert Jenkins Onderdonk (1852 - 1917) San Antonio Artist Image Size: 6 3/4 x 8 Frame Size: 13 x 15 Medium: Ceramic Tile "Texas Landscape" signed Biography Robert Jenkins Onderdonk (1852 - 1917) Robert Jenkins Onderdonk is noted for his landscape and portrait paintings and also for his fine art teaching. Onderdonk was born in Catonsville, Maryland in 1852. He was the father of Robert Julian Onderdonk and Eleanor Rogers Onderdonk, also distinguished Texas artists. He received an academic education at the College of St. James, Catonsville, followed by studies at the National Academy of Design in 1872 under the instruction of Lemuel Everett Wilmarth. In 1875, Onderdonk attended Art Students League of New York and received instruction from Walter Shirlaw, James Carroll Beckwith and William Merritt Chase. Onderdonk moved to San Antonio, Texas in 1878 where he made a living teaching and selling his paintings. In 1889 he moved to Dallas, where he painted several portraits for the Huburt Portrait Company, followed by employment with the Art Students League of Dallas. In 1896, Onderdonk returned to San Antonio, Texas where he continued to paint until his death in 1917. Onderdonk was a member of the Allied Artists of America; Salmagundi Club, New York, and the San Antonio Art League. Exhibitions included the Annual Exhibition of the State Fair of Texas, Dallas; Dallas Art Association; Louisiana Purchase Exposition, St. Louis; Annual Texas Artists Exhibition, Fort Worth; Annual Exhibition, National Academy of Design, New York, and the San Antonio Art League. Source: John and Deborah Powers, "Texas Painters, Sculptors, and Graphic Artists" Robert Jenkins Onderdonk was born at St. Timothy's Hall, Catonsville Maryland, in 1852. He had a very thorough academic education and was always sketching family members, classmates and landscapes on the back of his school books. This sketching ethic was a process he subscribed to his entire life, always carrying a sketch book with him where ever he went, like a camera of today. Deciding to make art his profession, Robert moved to New York. He was not only a part of the academic beginnings of American art while studying in New York at the renowned National Academy of Design in 1870, but also one of the first student members, under the instruction of Lemuel Everett Wilmarth, at the Arts Students League. At the League, Robert also studied and honed his craft with other teachers including Walter Shirlaw, William Merritt Chase and James Carroll Beckwith. Some of his classmates included: George Inness, Jr., Frederick Stuart Church, John Henry Twachtman and a Texan from San Antonio named Edward Grenet. Robert was lured to Texas in 1879 by his childhood friend and rancher, William Negely and by stories he read in the tabloids of the day that touted Texas as the "Promised Land." Robert found the light, people and atmosphere of San Antonio agreeable and quickly settled in. He soon met a fellow Texas artist, Emily Gould, whom he married in 1881. They lived with her parents in a house called "Bella Vista" throughout their lives. The house was two miles north of town, had a wonderful view of the city and still stands today. Here Robert lived and taught art classes, painted portrait commissions, landscapes, still lifes and supported his family. Some of his students, who later became well-known Texas artists, were Mary Bonner...

Victorian Marine Seascape Large Oil Painting of Pure Seas and Shimmering Light by the absolute Master of Pure Seas Paintings. This is a beautiful, ethereal work by Henry Moore (THE Henry Moore and not the famous Sculptor!). The seascape we have for sale is an exquisite example of Moore’s sea-painting (he began painting the sea in the late 1860s), this, produced at the height of his fame and talents, it was painted in 1891. In it he captures the rolling waves as they catch the light and conveys a cool beauty within this deceptively simple composition. There may be a hint of a vessel in the background but maybe it is a trick of the light!! The seagulls dance in the foreground. Moore manages to straddle two enormous art...
