Urbino from the Fine Art Auction catalog

Ray Taylor, Richard English, Mitch Carter and the gang at the Fine Art Auction always promise exciting inventory, and this weekend is no exception.

From Taylor’s Henri Matisse Original lithograph in black Signed Femme Dans Un Fauteuil from 1943 to kick of Friday’s showcase, to English’s Marc Chagall Original etching with hand coloring Hand Signed David's Funeral Song 1958 Example 56/100 on Saturday night, the early catalogs are incredible.

A “small room” for bidders will work on key art collectors on Friday, and Taylor will also boast a Christine Oberthür Original oil painting on canvas Signed Le Vase Bleu, 2023. It is a very colorful, floral work that may just steal the show.

The Salvador Dalí Original woodcut engraving in colors Cerberus 1964 is another spectacular work of penmanship that must be seen.

The Vincent Van Gogh Lithograph in colors Vegetable Gardens 1937 is a work that would perform well on any wall.

A newer work, the Jean-Claude Novaro Clear blown ovoid glass vase with blue emulsions Signed 1998 varies from the art that picks up any wall. This is a showpiece that must be seen.

Perhaps the highlight of Friday evening is the Erté aka Romain de Tirtoff Original gouache painting on paper Signed Orientale c1935.

Ray and Rich will prop Karl Striker and Pedro Ortiz Munoz works that have proven popular with today’s art aficionados.

Friday’s Main Event is a Kef! Original Acrylic Painting on Paper Signed Essence of Peace #4 2024. Simon Roland has been on a very hot streak with the fine art market and this piece will continue that trend.

On Saturday, English will introduce a stunning Martine Delaleuf Original gouache painting on Paper Signed La Trace du Fauve 2023.

On both days, an Albrecht Dürer Woodcut is featured. Saturday’s in black Christ Teaching the Doctors c1860 is a once-in-a-lifetime piece.

Works by Pablo Picasso, Edgar Degas and Salvador Dali highlight a busy night. The Raphael Sanzio da Urbino Original engraving in black God Appears To Abraham 1649 is an incredibly beautiful piece.

Saturday’s Main Event, the work by Chagall is different for the coloring master, and one that needs to be seen…and bid on to believe.

Do yourself a favor and tune in the Fine Art Auction for each of the four evenings. Get the credit card ready and beautify your own corner of the world.
