Notable paintings : by masters of the English XVIII century, the Barbizon & old Dutch schools, together with several important examples by XIX century artists : collection of the estate of the late Judge Elbert H. Gary, sold by direction of the New York Trust Company, executor
An auction catalogue issued in 1928 by the American Art Association in New York, selling paintings from the estate of Judge Elbert H. Gary by direction of his executor, the New York Trust Company. The single picture is a decorative ornament: a symmetrical diamond-shaped arrangement of scrolling foliage, fleur-de-lis tips and rosette flowers in dark ink on a cream page, a printer's ornament rather than an artwork plate, useful to a designer as a ready model for symmetrical filigree motifs, lacework borders or lattice frames.
