Edmund Adler
Edmund Adler had been taught at the Viennese School of Art History (focus: lithography) from 1892 until 1896. Subsequently, he studied from 1896 until 1903 at the Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, where his teacher/instructor was Christian Griepenkerl, who was a follower of the so-said Viennese Ring Road style. Adler received the Rome Award by the academy, a fact which enabled him a one-year stay in the eternal city. Having returned to Austria, Adler moved with his family to Mannersdorf at Leitha Mountains in 1910. After the outbreak of the First World War, Adler was forced to go to war. He returned only in 1920, having been left in war captivity in Russia then. In the subsequent period, the painter dedicated himself solely to the fine arts and worked continuously until old age. Only half a year before he died, Adler put his brush away at the age of 88. He created especially portraits as well as children and youth scenes that convey an ideal world. The Edmund Adler Gallery was founded in 2006. It is situated in the castle of Mannersdorf, which presents the collection of Adler's works.

Robert Kenneth White "Fountain Visitors" 2019 Oil of Pigeons and Stone Fountain
Located in Miami, FL
ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "FOUNTAIN VISITORS"
⚜ Oil on canvas ⚜ Hand signed lower left ⚜ Frameless display
HUMOR AND ELEGANCE IN A MEDITERRANEAN FOUNTAIN SCENE
In Fountain Visitors, Robert Kenneth White brings humor, realism, and elegance together in a charming portrayal of pigeons interacting with a sculpted dog-head fountain.

View AllPortrait of Christina Patterson, 5 Years Old
By Aaron Shikler
Located in Milford, NH
A fine portrait of a 5 year old Christina Patterson by American artist Aaron Abraham Shikler (1922-2015). Shikler was born in Brooklyn, New York, studied at the Tyler School of Art at Temple University, then studied in New York with the abstract painter Hans Hofmann, but he remained a committed realist throughout his life, under the sway of artists like Degas, Vuillard, Sickert and Sargent. To make a living, he painted clowns and ballerinas for a wholesale company, signing the work “Phil I. Steen” to register his disgust. When Leroy Davis, an Army friend, opened the Davis Gallery in Manhattan in 1953, he began showing Mr. Shikler’s work, which included figure studies, still lifes and landscapes. A turning point came in 1959 when Jane Engelhard...
