Deloiuse so possibly French--ink on the back is written FRIEZE IN ROOM IN POMPEI--probably added afterward--this is a stunning pair of classical paintings--rare--even well framed prints on subject expensive--discovery of Pompei caused a major stir in the art and decorative world

Speyer and dated 1921--painted in Germany in the aftermath WWI-in the chaos of immediate postwar Germany-artist finds a peaceful bucolic scene of a farmer watering his draft horses in stream at the end of the work day--farmer wears a fine clean rainbow colored hand woven shirt--maybe he put it on to poise just for the painting--the horses and the man convey strength, purpose and durability--characteristics the Germans drew on during their amazing reconstruction period

Late 18th century Spanish Colonial Madonna Delorosa--our lady of sorrows-heart pierced by rapier-focused on the crown of thorns and the hand-forged nails used to pin Christ to cross--the cloth on his body with the initials that mocked him as King of the Jews--all symbols of the pain inflected on Christs mother Mary--these paintings of Marys agony over the death of Christ were common in the early Church and faded away in the 19th century--painting has been relined minor paint chips in lower right corner-26 inches by 20.75 inches-- fine thin gold leaf frame--well painted-a cut above most Spanish Colonial provincial paintings in academic performance--here there is most certainly agony and an almost a quirky ecstasy which is found in many paintings on this subject
