Description
Jack Pohr (Russian/Colorado, 1918-2003), "Geronimo", oil on canvas, sight: 23 x 19", frame: 29.5 x 25.5"
Provenance: An Alamo Heights, Texas collection
Jack Pohr's works are imbued with distinctive, heavy impasto, or "raised paint" technique that he used on many of his works throughout his life. After World War II, he and his wife migrated from war-torn Europe to Canada and later to the United States. There Jack had a studio where he painted and made his own frames, and became nationally famous as a portraitist and landscape painter. His portrait commissions took him across the country to both coasts where his clients included many famous people, including Averell Harriman and President John F. Kennedy. Once reminiscing to a friend, he said that as he painted the president in the Oval Office, the president's small son, John-John, would come in and sit to watch him paint.
