James Chapin painted people and landscapes in the early and middle twentieth century. His art is significant for showing human warmth, heroism, and complex character in ordinary people.
James Chapin is one of America's leading painters. He holds the Temple Gold medal for the best painting by an American given by the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the $1,000 Prize for Portraiture award by the Art Institute of Chicago.
Twenty years ago, Chapin created a series of paintings of a family in lower New Jersey named Marvin. These character portrayals are hung in the leading museums in the country.
He has executed numerous portraits of prominent public figures. His works have been acquired by many private collectors and for the permanent collections of the Pennsylvania Academy of fine Arts where he now teaches portraiture, the Encyclopedia Britannica, Duncan Phillips Memorial Gallery, Art Institute of Chicago, Newark Museum, Amherst College Dartmouth, and others.
Chapin was born in West Orange, New Jersey in 1887 and studied at Cooper Union, the Art Students League and abroad at the Royal Academy of Antwerp, Belgium where he received the First Award and Gold Medal.

"Victoria" original lithograph signed by Malvin Marr "Zsissly" Albright
By Malvin Marr Albright
Located in Milwaukee, WI
The present print, "Victoria," is the most iconic example of the printmaking of Malvin Marr Albright, called Zsissly. The composition for the image comes from Albright's painting from about 1935, done while he was studying at the Art Institute of Chicago. We can see clearly in the image how he possesses the same skill for unsettling, magic realist images as his more famous twin brother Ivan Le Lorraine: The lady Victoria sits at a dining room table, surrounded by luxurious still-life objects. All the textures and surfaces of the image express a horror vacui as seen in his painted works, such as "The Trail of Time is Dust" at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art. The door in this print recalls one of the more famous works by his brother, "That Which I Should Have Done I Did Not Do (The Door)" at the Art Institute of Chicago.

'Lobsterman's Wharf, Maine' original lithograph signed by "Zsissly" Albright
By Malvin Marr Albright
Located in Milwaukee, WI
'Lobsterman's Wharf, Maine' is an original lithograph signed by Malvin Marr "Zsissly" Albright. While Malvin Marr – along with his better-known identical twin Ivan Albright – was known for his meticulous and unsettling magic realist compositions, he and his brother were also prolific in capturing landscapes of the coast of Maine where the two spent several consecutive summers away from Chicago over their lives. Sometimes these Maine landscapes and views would be painterly and seemingly antithetical to the careful realism of his other work; but in this example, however, the wharf is treated with the same macabre decay as his human subjects. In the composition, the shack...
