1894-1978 | American
Norman Rockwell defined the visual narrative of 20th-century American life, transforming everyday moments into scenes of profound meaning. His images captured the nation’s heart and soul with emotional precision, elevating the familiar into works that continue to resonate across generations.
A Scout is Friendly reflects the artist’s decades-long collaboration with the Boy Scouts of America, an organization that he believed embodied the country’s highest ideals. Created for the 1943 Brown & Bigelow calendar, the scene unfolds as a Scout uses a map to assist a couple while their grandson watches with admiration. For over sixty years, Rockwell’s work with the Scouts produced some of his most beloved images that came to define the American experience itself.

PIERRE-AUGUSTE RENOIR
1841-1919 | French
Femme au corsage blanc, Jeanne Samary
At the height of his career, Pierre-Auguste Renoir captured the vitality of Parisian society with remarkable warmth, most magnificently in his portraits of Jeanne Samary.
Compared to the 4,000 paintings Renoir produced, he created only about 150 pastels, making this luminous work an extraordinary rarity. A celebrated actress, Samary became one of Renoir’s most important muses, appearing in all three of his landmark paintings, Bal du moulin de la Galette, La Balançoire and The Luncheon of the Boating Party
The year 1879 marked a pinnacle in Renoir’s career, with four portraits accepted into the prestigious Salon, including a full-length depiction of Samary. The artist’s profound connection with his sitter is evident here; as his close friend and biographer Georges Rivière observed, “no portrait ever gave Renoir greater satisfaction than the ones he made of Samary.”

ALEXANDER KOESTER
1864-1932 | German
Celebrated worldwide for his evocative duck paintings, Alexander Koester earned the nickname Enten-Koester (“Ducks Koester”). His technical mastery brought international acclaim, including a gold medal at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair and prestigious commissions from European royalty.
This monumental oil by Koester ranks among the largest and most complex compositions of his career. Depicting a remarkable sixteen ducks—an impressive feat for an artist known to charge by the bird—the work represents the height of his achievement. Their energetic forms send ripples across the water, catching the beauty of the fading light. A very similar example by Koester hung at Laurelton Hall, the estate of Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Untitled (Spin Painting)
One of art history’s greatest renegades, Damien Hirst has challenged conventions and captivated audiences since his emergence in the late 1980s. Known for his inventive approach, Hirst transforms familiar materials and techniques into visual narratives that pulse with energy. Among his most celebrated works, his famed spin paintings burst with motion and vibrant color.
In this effervescent work, the sunburst-like splashes of bold colors were made by dripping paint onto the surface of a motorized canvas. The result is a striking statement emblematic of Hirst’s best works, which are prized by museums and collectors alike for their presence and enduring impact on contemporary art.

His work is now represented in major collections including the Mucha Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Venetian cityscapes stand among the most recognizable and important views in art history during the 19th century. Federico del Campo became the leading artist of this genre, shaping the vedute tradition of his era. Born in Lima, he traveled throughout Italy, exhibiting at the Paris Salon in 1880 and the Madrid Art Exhibition of 1881. His luminous palette, precise technique and deep understanding of the city placed his works among the most sought-after depictions of Venice, especially among Grand Tour travelers and European collectors.
This sweeping view of the Canale della Giudecca captures del Campo’s vision of Venice, animated by gondoliers along the promenade and cargo vessels crossing the water. The panoramic scene is a stunning tribute to Venice's grand architecture and history.

Valtat’s works are held in major institutions worldwide, including the Musée d’Orsay and the Art Institute of Chicago.

This painting exemplifies his signature subject, a vendor presenting prized wares to patrician patrons.

The Small Horse
Albrecht Dürer is regarded as the greatest engraver in history, elevating the art form through unprecedented naturalism and technical precision. Rooted in humanism and marked by extraordinary attention to detail, his woodcuts and engravings established new standards that continue to define printmaking. The Small Horse displays his unrivaled command of proportion and anatomical accuracy.
Horses recur throughout Dürer’s work as symbols of strength and authority, informed by Renaissance ideals and classical antiquity. This engraving reflects his deeply intellectual approach to composition, which shaped the course of the Northern Renaissance and secured his legacy among the most influential artists of all time.

Jeanne d’Arc
Emmanuel Frémiet was a leading sculptor of the Third Republic, shaping France’s national identity through his monumental public commissions. Renowned as the foremost animal sculptor of his generation, he earned the Medal of Honor at the Salon of 1887 and was later appointed Officer of the Legion of Honor.
His first equestrian bronze, Jeanne d’Arc, erected in 1874 at the Place des Pyramides in Paris, became one of the era’s defining images. The monument inspired later versions in cities including Philadelphia, Portland and New Orleans. This commanding bronze reflects the renewed reverence for patriotic figures, particularly the beloved Joan of Arc, that emerged in France following the Franco-Prussian War.
