About the Item
Cheryl Ladd in the role of Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco.
Cover illustration for TV Guide, February 5-11, 1983.
Richard Amsel had a brilliant but tragically short career that flamed out with AIDS. Within that brief time, he reached the top of the profession he had entered while still an illustration student at the Philadelphia College of Art in 1969.
His chosen field was in advertising and movie posters, a highly competitive one in which he regularly won the big movie accounts over more seasoned professionals. Among his spectacular poser designs were those commissioned for Raiders of the Lost Ark, Chinatown, The Dark Crystal and The Sting. The latter was done in style of J. C. Leyendecker; with Nijinsky, he emulated the Russian Leon Bakst, and for other assignments he created homages to Rolf Armstrong and Coles Phillips. TV Guide commissioned him to do over forty covers, depicting a lengthy roster of stars and celebrities, including John Travolta, Lucille Ball, Katharine Hepburn, Elvis Presley, Vivien Leigh, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and Clark Gable. Amsel also illustrated fiction for magazines such as McCall’s, and designed record album covers.
He received numerous awards from both the Society of Illustrators in Los Angeles and New York, a Golden Key Award from the Hollywood Reporter, and a Grammy award.
To settle his estate, Christie’s auction house held a one-man sale for his movie poster art in 1987, which elicited avid bidding by many private collectors.

- Mosler JuniorBy Joseph BroghammerLocated in Kansas City, MODue to the current situation related to the Novel Coronavirus pandemic, our gallery will donate 10% of our commission from this sale to the Kansas City Artists Coalition, which has been supporting local Kansas City Artists for the past 40 years. The Kansas City Artists Coalition (KCAC), is a non-profit, artist-centered, artist-run alternative space, supporting artists at every level in their career through exhibitions, continuing education and artist studios. Artist: Joseph Broghammer Title: “Mosler Junior” Materials : Chalk pastel and pencil on Arches Paper Date : 2019 Dimensions : 42 x 43 in. Omaha based artist Joseph Broghammer is as much of a storyteller as he is an artist. His one-of-a-kind pastel drawings in “Animals” are chronicles of his life. The creatures Broghammer creates are vehicles to uncover the varying characteristics of the artist’s personal identity. Hence, Broghammer’s “Animals” translates as a flowing stream of consciousness. The different birds and livestock staring back at the viewer are ornamented with iconographic symbols – small surprises along the way. These trinkets are keys to understanding the stories Broghammer is sharing. Broghammer began mastering his “dry painting” technique during his B.F.A. in Visual Art at the University of South Dakota. He graduated in 1986 and a year later went on to study his M.F.A. at the University of Wisconsin. In 2009, he studied at Creative Capital in Omaha, Nebraska. As storytellers often do, Broghammer later went on to become an educator himself, teaching at WhyArts? and becoming an Artist Assistant at Vera Mercer...Category
