Campbell Art Company was originally founded by Alfred S. Campbell (English-American, 1840-1912) who was an English art photographer and commercial inventor. He moved to Elizabeth, New Jersey, where he built his state-of-the-art studio, which had an onsite photo imaging production facility, initially calling it ‘Campbell Studios’. Campbell's patented “Art-Relievo” platinum photographic prints, which were 3-dimensional photographic reproductions in 'absolute relief' (embossed), sold in the late 1890's through the early 1900's (c1896-c1904). Campbell reproduced various master works that included Native American Indian portraits/scenes, by way of the Art Relievo process. Information about the advertising/company: The Hirth-Krause Company was established in 1883 and originally sold leather, buttonhooks, lacing, and soles at wholesale, and purchased finished shoes for retail sale.. In 1903 the Hirth-Kraus leather and hide company began a shoe factory in Rockford, Michigan. The shoes produced were called Rouge Rex Shoes, identified by a trademark of an Indian in feathered headdress. In 1966 the name was changed to Wolverine World Wide, Inc.

Pardner, 1943 Vintage African American Art, Black Artist, Painting, Pet Portrait

John Farrar (American, 1928-1972) Signed: John Farrar (Lower, Left) “ Pardner ”, 1943 Titled Above Signature (Lower, Left) Oil on Canvas 26 ⅛” x 32 ⅛” Housed in a 2 ½” period ornamented Newcomb-Macklin frame in toned gold leaf, in good original condition. Outside Size: 30 1/2" x 36 5/8" A recent discovery of a painting that appears to be Farrar’s family dog. This was done when he was just fifteen years old. As a teenager in the 1940s, Farrar received much local acclaim in the Washington D.C. art Scene. Words like “Child Prodigy”, “Brilliant” and “Gifted” were used to describe him in the local newspaper. He had a great bout of early success which included developing patrons among Washington DC’s art elite but this was short lived as he was afflicted with schizophrenia and alcoholism as an adult causing him to spend much of his life in mental institutions. In 1942, Farrar won the Washington Times-Herald's outdoor art fair. This painting was executed the following year when he was 15 (1943). That same year he won the top prize at Atlanta University’s third annual “ Exhibition of Paintings, Sculpture and Prints by Negro Artists ” with a piece titled “ Queenie ”. Approximately one hundred and fifty works of art were included in the show, representing the best works of more than seventy-five contemporary African American artists. This show included works by Romare Bearden, who was awarded Honorable Mention for his painting “ The Two Genrerations ”. Also included among the exhibitors - Charles H. Alston, Allen Rohen Crite, Aaron Douglas, Fredrick Flemister, Sargant Johnson, Horace Pippin, Jacob Lawrence, Marjorie Wheeler Brown, Hughie Lee Smith, Lois Mailou Jones...

Working until the year before his death at age 89, he painted landscapes, still life, and portraits in a style that others, but not he, labelled Impressionist.

A year later, he returned with his parents to Germany from where his family had emigrated, and in 1907, he enrolled for seven years of study at the Dusseldorf Academy, known for its instruction in genre and history painting. However, Impressionist Adolf Munzer...
