William Meyerowitz, originally from Russia, embarked on his journey to the United States in 1908 alongside his father, followed shortly by the rest of their family. Upon his arrival in New York, young Meyerowitz was already deeply engrossed in the twin pursuits that would define his existence for the ensuing seven decades: music and art. Between 1912 and 1916, William Meyerowitz pursued his artistic education at the National Academy of Design, with a primary focus on the craft of etching. During this period, he sustained himself by both lending his voice to the Metropolitan Opera and engaging in architectural drafting. Following the completion of his formal studies, Meyerowitz collaborated with fellow artists George Bellows and Robert Henri to establish the People's Art Guild. This organization was conceived with the noble objective of democratizing art by offering alternative exhibition venues, even within the tenement houses of the East Side. It was through this endeavor that Meyerowitz crossed paths with the artist Theresa Bernstein. Their union was sealed...

A beautiful woman sits at an open window, gazing down at a small bird who has landed nearby in this serene portrait by Charles Levier. Warm orange tones are played off their complements in shades of blue, the artist utilizing several different layers of oils to create a subtle and relaxed view of a spring day near the sea. Beyond the window a small chapel sits on a peninsula, surrounded tranquil blue waters. This work, like many of Levier's, belongs to the French figurative movement of the Glorious Thirty (Les Trente Glorieuses) - the golden period of thirty years after WWII which were a time of great hope and prosperity in France. Inspired by Hollywood cinema, Charles Levier sought harmony in composition and purity of color and form. His said that his creations represented "a light and delicate world, of dark and subtle shades and colors." Levier worked in a somewhat abstracted, cubist style. Additionally he often employed the French technique of "cloisonnism" (after the French for "partition"), a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours, also seen in this work. The term was coined by critic Edouard Dujardin on the occasion of the Salon des Indépendants, in March 1888 and was commonly used by artists like Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Paul...
