781. Robert MacDonald Graham (American, 1919); “Honky Tonk”, c. 1965; acrylic and vinyl polymer/masonite, 18"x 24", signed and titled. Graham studied at the Kansas City Art Institute with Thomas Hart Benton. He served as a combat artist during World War II and after the war was influenced by the Belgian painter, Jules van Vlasselaer. He worked as an art instructor at the University of Texas in Austin from 1951 to 1955 and from 1958 to 1975, taught at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. Like his mentor, Graham revisited the same subject many times, usually making subtle changes in a new work, but preserving the primary composition and feeling of the original. The two works being sold here are representative of that. The original, executed in 1965, and a later version, painted in 1992, not long before his death, are very similar, with only minor, peripheral differences. $3000 |
