About the Item

A fine early 20th century figurative oil painting of a girl and cat in a doorway by Austrian artist Edmund Adler Rode (aka Edmund Adler) (1876-1965). Edmund was born in Vienna, Austria He worked for a number of years in lithographs before spending the years 1892 to 1895 in Vienna as a student at the Graphic Research Lab. Beginning in 1896, Adler attended the Vienna Academy where, in 1903, he received the Kenyon Traveling Scholarship and decided upon a move to Mannersdorf to begin his career. In 1914 the artist was taken as a prisoner of war with other Austrian painters and spent the entire First World War in Siberia. He later participated in exhibitions with other Austrian and Russian painters while also holding exhibits in Vienna, Dresden and Brunn.

Great affection was lavished particularly upon his portrayal of children.He received an appointment to Professorship at the Royal Academy in Vienna which he held for a number of years before his death.

  • Portrait 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...
