About the Item
Beautiful and detailed original oil on canvas by Armenian/American artist Hovsep Pushman.
The sitter is Mary Bernard whose father was Jean (Juan) Bernard and whose mother was
Susan Machado. The sitter’s husband was John Frank Burkhard.
The work was created circa 1930's and is in excellent condition.
The painting measures 36 1/4"h x 29"w. The frame is 45 1/4"h x 37 1/2"w.
This portrait is a wonderful example by the artist with intricate detail seen in the fabrics,
exquisitely beautiful and executed with technical precision.
Born in Armenia, Hovsep Pushman (1877-1966) became known for still lifes of exotic subjects, featuring antique objects with Oriental motifs, Nubian princesses, or Spanish gypsies. His paintings had soft lighting and quite often tapestries as backgrounds and were harmonious in tone with refined, delicate brushwork.
He studied at the Constantinople Academy of Art, at the Chicago Art Academy, and in Paris under Jules Joseph Lefebvre, Tony Robert-Fleury, and Adolphe Dechenaud who encouraged him to explore his Eastern heritage.
After settling in Chicago in 1915, he became a U.S. citizen and began creating his signature works in the 1930s. He was also a resident of New York City and painted in California where he was active in the California Art Club.
Hovsep Pushman was one of those rare artists whose work was appreciated by both critics and collectors and who enjoyed recognition and good fortune. In a 1932 one-man show at New York's Grand Central Art Galleries, the entire display of 16 Pushman paintings was sold before opening day's end.

Portrait of Lady - Oil on Canvas by Carlo Socrate - 1930
By Carlo Socrate
Located in Roma, IT
Portrait of Lady is an original oil on canvas artwork realized by Carlo Socrate (1889-1967) in 1930.
A beautiful portrait of a woman by one of the major exponents of the association of painters that came to be known as Scuola Romana (Roman School).
Very good conditions.
Collect a masterpiece of the XX century.
Carlo Socrate (Mezzana Bigli -Pavia 1889 – Rome 1967)
He is the son of actors and lives in Argentina until the age of nine years.
Once returned to Italy, he begins attending the Free School of the Nude and in 1914, he goes to Rome, where a year later he would study at Villa Strohl-Fern.
In 1917, he worked for the company, Ballets Russes by Diaghilev; he also collaborated with the scenography for Las Meninas and prepared the scenes for Les femmes de bonne humeur (The Good Humored Ladies) by Léon Bakst. During this period, he meets Picasso, whom he follows to Paris, collaborating with him on scenes from Parade. During his stay in Paris, he meets Derain and other exponents of the cultural environment.
With Picasso, he visited Barcelona and then Madrid where, together, they visited The Prado Museum.
In 1918, at the Casina Valadier on the Pincian Hill (Rome), he exhibits his Still Life with a Dish of Apples and Onions, which arouses perplexity in the Roman environment for his personal rare “neoclassicism” but at the same time, attentive to European situation in those years.
After Portatrice di Frutta (Fruit Carrier) (1924), which is one of his masterpieces, he exhibits i Cacciatori (The Hunters), a very challenging painting, at the “Novecento Italiano...
