A signed print by Alaska artist Dr. Vernon A. Cates (1920-2010), numbered 40/500, depicts a shallow stream flowing into a shaded stand of lush green trees. Sunlight breaks across the water and foliage. British-American artist Peter Ellenshaw's (1913-2007) "Cottage Garden", signed and numbered 118/950, brings vivid red poppies and purple irises together in a densely planted garden. The matting and frame show moisture marks. Its frame measures approximately 22" x 30" overall. A monarch butterfly embroidery places the orange-and-black insect above a cluster of yellow black-eyed Susans, with the stitched petals and leaves standing out against a dark brown ground. A small garden scene signed "Rena Stephens" and dated '79 depicts a path, flowering plants, and a cottage beneath trees. Green matting complements the foliage. "Mt. Redoubt", signed Kathleen Adell Logan, combines a pale snow-covered mountain with dark evergreen trees and soft blue shadows in a spare winter composition. A black-and-white photograph closely observes ferns and broad leaves. A second black-and-white photograph shows a tall waterfall plunging down a rock face between trees. Each piece is framed.
