Description
Category: Paintings

Description: An oil on canvas by Pollet, shows a clear glass oil lamp placed on a table having a raised gallery along with a lighter, and cigar nearby. A portion of the four poster cast iron bed and wood paneled walls complete the composition.

Notes: Joseph Pollet was an important member of the Woodstock Art Colony. He emigrated to NYC in 1911 from Albbruck, Germany (born in 1897) and at age 21 had a promising career as an advertising copywriter. While working, he studied painting and his landscapes were immediately successful in NYC galleries. He studied at the Art Student's League with John Sloan, Robert Henri, and Homer Boss. From 1954-61, he lived in Paris and Italy. In 1971 , a fire destroyed 100-150 of his paintings in his Greenwich Village studio. Pollet exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery, Chicago Art Institue, Brooklyn Museum, Pennsylvania Academy, Los Angeles County Museum, and Carnegie International.
