Barbara C. Gilbert (Author)

Available from these sellers.

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1997

Henry Mosler (1841-1920) was a professional artist successful in his time. Born of a 19th-century immigrant family, Mosler resourcefully fashioned a livlihood in painting and as an artist documented American life including Colonial themes, Civil War illustrations, and portraits of men and women of society. His story is also typical of the American expatriate artist and academic painter, who sought training and a career in European art centers. Mosler returned to New York in 1894, playing an active and traditionalist role in American art. Extensive research in the U.S. and Europe have resulted in this book that elucidates the meaning of one man as an American, an artist, and a Jew.
