Description: 9X11 B&W photograph signed in black fountain pen ink by Paul Cadmus. Matted to an overall size of 9X11. In excellent condition. (1904-1999) Paul Cadmus was an American artist widely known for his egg tempera paintings of gritty social interactions in urban settings. He also produced many highly finished drawings of single nude male figures. His paintings combine elements of eroticism and social critique in a style often called magic realism. After traveling through France and Spain, Cadmus and the French settled in a fishing village on the island of Majorca. In 1933, they headed back to the United States after running out of money, where Cadmus was one of the first artists to be employed by The New Deal art programs, painting murals at post offices. He maintained a studio at 54 Morton Street. Cadmus worked in commercial illustration as well, but French, also a tempera artist, convinced him to devote himself completely to fine art. In 1979, he was elected into the National Academy of Design as an associate member and became a full member in 1980. Cadmus is ranked by the Artists Trade Union of Russia amongst the world's best artists of the last four centuries. Comes with a full Letter of Authenticity from Todd Mueller Authentics.
