About the Item

Satyr and Pan Life Magazine Cover, April 26, 1923 Benjamin Sayre Cory Kilvert was the son of the mayor of his birthplace: Hamilton, Ontario, in Canada. Kilvert migrated to New York at attend classes at the Art Students League. Among his teachers were George Bridgman and Robert Henri. He found early employment as a staff artist for the New York World and later, Collier’s magazine. He also began to submit humorous artwork to Life, Punch, Judge and St. Nicholas magazines and illustrated several children’s books. During World War I, Kilvert served with the Canadian Expeditionary Force, based in London, devising techniques for camouflage. He also developed an interest in map making and created several mural-sized pictorial maps, including one for the Pinehurst Country Club in North Carolina. Kilvert complemented his illustration career with rural landscape paintings of the Catskill Mountains, street scenes in Charleston, South Carolina, marine paintings in the Biddeford, Maine area, and New York City skylines. He was a member of the American Watercolor Society and the Salmagundi Club in New York where he regularly exhibited.

"Satyr and Nymph", Art Deco Masterpiece Painting with Nudes in Paradise, 1932
Located in Philadelphia, PA
One of the most sensual and brilliant Art Deco paintings in the French manner that we have ever offered, this idyllic scene of Satyr and Nymph, lounging under a fruited tree with lush fields in the distance, was painted by Gheorghe Labin in 1932. Labin was one of Romania's avant-garde artists in the 1920s and 1930s, and clearly he trained in Paris, because the lush scene, brilliant palette, and confident brush strokes indicate an intimate familiarity with the leading painters associated with what we now call Art Deco. This painting was entered into the Salon Bucarest in 1932, in a period when Labin exhibited with Mattis Teutsch, the de facto leader of Romania's modern painters, together with Corneliu Baba...

"Faun and Fawn" Aaron Bohrod, Realist Still Life, Deer and Putti
By Aaron Bohrod
Located in New York, NY
Aaron Bohrod Faun and Fawn, 1984 Signed lower right Oil on gesso board 16 x 12 inches Aaron Bohrod's work has not been limited to one style or medium. Initially recognized as a regionalist painter of American scenes, particularly of his native Chicago, Bohrod later devoted himself to detailed still-life paintings rendered in the trompe l'oeil style. He also worked for several years in ceramics and wrote a book on pottery. Born in 1907, Bohrod began his studies at Chicago's Crane Junior College in 1925, and two years later enrolled in the Art Institute of Chicago. But it was at the Art Students League in New York City, from 1930 to 1932, that he studied under the man believed to be his most significant early influence, John Sloan. Sloan's romantic realism is reflected in the many depictions of Chicago life, which comprised most of Bohrod's early work. Under Sloan's tutelage, Bohrod came to subscribe to the belief that painters should find the subjects of their art in the immediate world around them. These paintings emphasized architecture unique to north Chicago and featured Chicagoans engaged in such everyday activities as working, playing or going to the theatre. The romantic aspect was conveyed by the use of misty colors, and the realism by attention to detail. In 1936, Bohrod won the Guggenheim Fellowship award in creative painting...
