About the Item
A stunningly rendered profile view of a man's head by famous Polish-born artist Josef Presser, whose works you might well have seen in America's major museums (as well as in European collections). This pastel is far more detailed and carefully modeled than his usual sketches. He obviously loved the character and and terrain of this finely-formed head! Drawing itself is 15" x 14", framed dimensions 23" x 21" (comes framed). From AskArt: Josef Presser was born in Lublin, Poland. He studied at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts School, in Europe, and with Bryant Baker, Henry Hunt Clark, Philip Hale, and William James. He was a member of the Philadelphia Watercolor Club and the New Haven Paint and Clay Club and exhibited at the Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh, The Art Institute of Chicago, The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. His work is in many museum collections, both here and abroad, including the Uffizi, Florence, The Whitney Museum of American Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Philadelphia Art Alliance, Philadelphia.
