Robert Philipp Figurative Paintings

American, 1895-1981

Robert Philipp was a portrait, figure and still-life painter. He painted celebrities, landscapes and nudes. Philipp often used his wife, Shelby Post, as a model in his paintings. His concepts and teaching methods inspired several students whom he taught at the Art Students League in New York from 1948–73 and at the National Academy of Design from 1950–75. Philipp's works are on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum in New York.
