About the Item
This strong and compelling portrait of a young man with chiselled features was drawn by Leon Kroll, WPA muralist and accomplished painter who normally favoured female subjects. Kroll studied under John Twachtman in New York and Jean-Paul Laurens in Paris, before teaching at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and elsewhere. He was a good friend of George Bellows, and painted murals for the Department of Justice Buildings in Washington, D.C. This portrait is especially arresting, and the sitter's fashionable haircut would suggest it dates to the 1920s or 1930s. (Dimensions include matte and frame.)
