About the Item

A Distinctive, 1950s Mid-Century Modern Cubist Portrait Study of Two Young Men by Noted Chicago Artist, Harold Haydon (Am. 1909-1994). A visually striking charcoal male portrait study executed on stationary envelope paper (Survey Graphic, New York City stationary envelope typed with the artist’s George Williams College, Hyde Park, Chicago address). The drawing measures 9 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches, unframed, mounted / floated to archival mat board measuring 12 x 7 3/4 inches (ready to frame). Estate stamped on reverse. Provenance: Estate of the artist. Harold Emerson Haydon was born in 1909 in Fort William, Ontario, Canada. He moved to America, settling in Chicago with his family in 1917 and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1941. Haydon attended the University of Chicago Lab School and the University of Chicago, where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree and Master’s Degree in Philosophy. He also studied at the Art Institute of Chicago in the early 1930s. Haydon became a Professor of Art at the University of Chicago from 1944-1975 and later taught as an instructor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago from 1975-1981. From 1975-1982, Haydon also taught as an Adjunct Professor of Fine Arts at Indiana University. He is recognized for his vibrant, painterly landscapes of New England, Vermont and Canada, as well as his dynamic urban views of the city of Chicago and its picturesque lakefront. Harold Haydon served as the respected, longtime art critic of the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper from 1963-1985. He died in Chicago in 1994.
