Description
George Benjamin Luks
Cyril
1921
Oil on canvas, signed lower left front, titled and signed verso, displayed in the original frame.
Canvas measures 20.25 x 16 inches in a 28.25 x 24.25 inch frame.
Provenance: Purchased in New York by Mrs. Margaret B. Robinson, Kansas City Missouri around 1921 or 1922. The Robinsons were a prominent Kansas City family and publishers of the Kansas City Social Register from 1880 to 1998. Mrs. Robinson always told that she met the artist and asked him sign and title this painting on the canvas verso. That said, C.W. Kraushaar Art Galleries hosted an exhibition of 'Recent Paintings and Watercolors' by George Luks January 12 to 31, 1922; and that exhibition catalog lists entry number 5 as an oil painting titled Cyril.
We happily provide seamless in-house packing and shipping services on nearly everything we sell.
