Do You Have Items to Sell?

Sunset Over Ancient Ruins

A captivating miniature oil painting featuring a dramatic sunset casting warm golden light over a romantic landscape of ancient ruins and a distant castle. The detailed architecture and vibrant sky create a dreamlike, timeless atmosphere. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner.

Scholar’s Desk with Globe and Maps

An intricate still-life painting depicting a study desk adorned with antique books, handwritten notes, an open journal, and a globe. A map drapes over the table, and a quill pen hints at scholarly exploration and knowledge. The rich texture and subdued lighting give the work a vintage academic charm.
