Works of Art Including an Agnes Sims Signed Print and a Signed KEN Abstract Painting - This lot features a collection of distinct artworks: a signed limited edition print, a mid-century modern abstract painting, and a traditional still life painting. The primary item is a large-format print on paper titled Deer Dancer by artist Agnes Sims (American, 1910-1990). The piece depicts a stylized Native American ceremonial figure rendered in shades of orange, black, and green. It is hand-inscribed in blue ink in the lower right corner: Deer Dancer / Agnes Sims / 3/50 1965. The paper has a visible vertical grain texture and is currently unframed. The second item is a Mid-Century Modern abstract oil on stretched canvas. The work features a heavily textured impasto technique depicting a row of stylized boats on water with elongated vertical reflections. The color palette is dominated by teal, blue, and green with yellow highlights. It is signed KEN in the lower right. Visual research indicates this composition is a known mid-century decor design often associated with commercial art of the period. The canvas is unframed. The third item is a traditional still life oil on canvas depicting an arrangement of grapes, pears, an apple, and bananas set against a simplified landscape background with scattered autumn leaves. The reverse of the canvas is inscribed with PAINTED BY followed by a name that is not clearly legible. The painting is housed in a basic, weathered wooden frame.
