About the Item

A self portrait of Maurice Molarsky (1885-1950) painted in 1925 This very large portrait measures 54 inches high, 52 inches wide, with a period Harer black and giltwood frame. Maurice Molarsky (also Morris Molarsky; May 25, 1885 -- January 1, 1950)[1 was an American painter known for his portraits, landscapes, and still lifes. His portraits are characterized by a traditional technique reminiscent of Velasquez. His landscapes and still lifes, however, are often painted in an airy, Impressionist style. He was equally comfortable working in either mode. Except for two years in Europe and six during which he kept a studio in New York City, Molarsky lived and worked in Philadelphia.
