Ron's art work has a unique style and is vary rare to come across. The Bear Rider is one of his largest and important constructions. He has an extensive show resume starting in 1963. His work has been published in numerous books, articles and the list of glowing reviews is endless. "The inspiration behind the work only adds to its intrigue. I began making these figures a number of years ago, they came to me in a dream. There was a door and when it opened there was a tremendous bright light and these figures were lined up behind it. "I knew it was a professional risk to put out such strong, strange work, but I knew I had to create them."... Ron Pippin. I was drawn to Ron's art for many years. As a collector and artist myself his work feels right at home with my own aesthetic....

Pair of Early Carved Italian Theater Statues

steveanddan — Sat, 18 Jan 2025 17:21:28 +0000

We date these carvings to the early 19th century but they may be much earlier than that. They come as a pair and priced as a pair. I'm told that these were architectural elements from an Italian theater. The paint and gilding are wonderful and the scale is an impressive 55 inches tall. It also shows its age well with a nice patina... $4200 for the pair

Cardboard Cubist Study of Woman’s Head

steveanddan — Sat, 14 Aug 2021 17:02:51 +0000

I found this interesting cardboard study in a New York Flea Market almost 50 years ago. It's been on the shelf all that time and we never gave it a 2nd thought. It's unsigned and I have no idea if it's important or not... just liked it. The feel is old and the earrings look Art Deco. I listed it as 1930s but that was a guess... 21" tall...$1200

1917 Blue Jeans- Play Poster

steveanddan — Tue, 07 May 2019 16:43:39 +0000

Blue Jeans is a melodramatic play by Joseph Arthur that opened in New York City in 1890 to great popularity. The sensation of the play is a scene where the unconscious hero is placed on a board approaching a huge buzz saw in a sawmill, which became one of the most imitated dramatic scenes (eventually to the point of cliche and parody). The play remained popular for decades, and was made into a successful silent film in 1917.

The play made its debut on October 6, 1890, at the Fourteenth Street Theatre. The original New York run of the play ran through March 7, 1891. The play enjoyed considerable success around the United States and in revivals in the following decades. It debuted in London in 1898.^[6]

It was rumored that theatre critic Andrew Carpenter Wheeler, known as “Nym Crinkle,” was the actual author or co-author of Blue Jeans, as well as Arthur’s prior hit The Still Alarm… 47″ x 34″ Framed… $675
