About the Item

This artwork "Young Girl Sitting on a Bench" 1954, is an oil painting on canvas by California artist Jonathan David Batchelor, 1913-2003. It is signed at the lower left corner by the artist. The canvas size is 24 x 18 inches, framed size is 33 x 27 inches. Framed in an antique style gold frame, with pink velvet liner and gold spacer. It is in very good condition, I could have say excellent but the velvet is slightly evenly faded and has minor soiling.

He continued in Los Angeles at the Lukits School, Wilshire Art School, and Otis Art Institute. During the 1930s he worked on the WPA art projects and as an illustrator for UC and the city of Oakland. He taught at CCAC from 1946-52 and then for many years in the Oakland Adult Art School. After settling in Canyon, CA in 1949, he remained there until his demise on Dec. 16, 2003. His work includes portraits, female nudes, landscapes, and still lifes in oil, acrylic, pastel, bronze, stone, and wood. Primarily a realist, he also produced abstract and semi-abstract works.
