About the Item
Raymond Chandler 1888 -1959, was an American born British novelist and screenwriter. Chandler became a famous detective novelist and popular pulp fiction writer, his novels were developed into film and became phenomenally successful with films adapted from the books such as , The Big Sleep, Farewell My Lovely, The Long Goodbye, The Lady in the Lake and Double Indemnity. The most famous Hollywood actors played the lead roles in the adapted films including Humphrey Bogart. This painting looks to have been painted in the period when the motion pictures were in production, probably in the 1970's and may well have been used as a design for a poster, book cover or similar, so far we have failed to make any inroads to the provenance of the picture including the identity of the artist. However this is the work of an accomplished artist who is clearly attuned to the themes surrounding the novels and the requirements of the advertising and film industry, the later part I am personally familiar with. We have recently discovered that this painting is signed and dated, M.A. Straus 1945. Unfortunately we are at this moment unable to identify the painter's biography, we will submit any additional information to come to light.
