Ernest Hamlin Baker
Berlin's Mayer Reuter, Time Magazine Cover - Lucian Freud

1950

About the Item

The Board measures 13.5 x 12.5 Ernest Hamlin Baker is one of America's greatest artist that no one has ever heard of. Take a look at his full body of work. If you haven't noticed, Ernest Hamlin Baker is an exceptional intellectual and creative force. His work rivals the meticulous art of Andrew Wyeth and perhaps exceeds that of Lucian Freud. Not only is he a transcendent portraitist but a great graphic designer as well. Art history is not a precise art. It leaves out many great talents. Today art celebrates mostly talentless hack copycat plagiarists. Where have you gone Ernest Hamlin Baker? Archivally matted but unframed.
