    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

PAUL CUMMINGS: Well, could we start in 0hio and tell me something about your family and how they got there? KATHERINE SCHMIDT: Certainly. My people on both sides were German refugees of a sort.

When my father as a young man first started out in business and was traveling he was asked to go to see an old friend of his father's in Lancaster. And there he met my mother, and they were married.

Raphael, we’ve known each other for a very long time, and over the years you have written a great deal about your life, and I know you’ve given many interviews. I’m doing this especially because the Archives wants a kind of update. It likes to have important American artists interviewed at intervals, so that as time goes by we keep talking to America’s famous artists over the years. I don’t know that we’ll dig anything new out of your past, but let’s begin at the beginning. See if we can skim over the early years abroad and coming here in general. I’d just like you to reminisce about your early years, your birth, and how you came here. RAPHAEL SOYER: Well, of course I was born in Russia, in the Czarist Russia, and I came here in 1912 when I was twelve years old.

  • From Theleague
    LINES from the League The Student and Alumni Magazine of the Art Students League of New York Spring 2014 Letter from the Executive Director here has always been a welcoming spirit at the League. Those with an affinity for art know that they are with like-minded people who share T their goals and desires to master their mediums. In such a supportive environment, many of our students choose to remain and study years after first enrolling. In this regard, we are as much a community as we are a school. This is the nature of the League: there are as many reasons to attend the League as there are attending students. The Board and administration recognize the League’s primary mission of providing a program and setting that supports the individual pursuit of art. The outgrowth of our 140-year history is nothing short of staggering; more promi- nent artists studied at the League than in any other institution. The same holds true for our illustrious faculty. League members who credit the League with providing them the most rewarding time of their lives continue to support us through gifts and bequests. We continue to be a sanctuary for artistic discourse and discovery where students learn that there are no limits to what they can achieve through dedication and the practice of making art. We honor those who have shown such dedication. In this issue of Lines, we profile individuals such as instructor Bruce Dorfman, celebrating fifty years of teaching at the League, and artist Eleanor Adam, who came to the League after the death of her son Alex to learn art and rediscover her place in the world.

  • Vermont Waterfall No.1 Coloured Chalks on Blue-Green Paper
    Paul CADMUS (New York 1904 - Weston 1999) Vermont Waterfall No.1 Coloured chalks on blue-green paper. Signed Cadmus in white chalk at the lower right. Inscribed VERMONT WATERFALL / ♯ 1 / CADMUS / 12 1/2 x 8 3/4 on the old backing board. 328 x 234 mm. (12 7/8 x 8 3/4 in.) When his friend and sometime lover Jared French and his wife Margaret bought a summer house in the town of Hartland in Vermont, Paul Cadmus was given his own house on the property, and the present sheet may have been drawn at around that time. In later years, after the Frenches had settled to Rome, the Vermont house was taken back from Cadmus and given to Jared’s Italian lover. Provenance: Palm Beach Galleries, Palm Beach, Florida Private collection, Los Angeles. Artist description: Paul Cadmus was, from early in his career, recognized as a gifted draughtsman. At the age fifteen, he enrolled at the National Academy of Design in New York, where he remained for six years before entering the Art Students League of New York. He began his career working as a commercial illustrator for an advertising agency in New York, and it was while at the Art Students League that he met his longtime lover, the painter Jared French. The two men travelled together in Europe in the early 1930s, settling for some time in Majorca, before returning to America in 1933. Cadmus soon began working for the New Deal agency known as the Works Progress Administration, painting murals for public buildings; works in which he was much influenced by the social realist painters Reginald Marsh and Kenneth Hayes Miller.

  • Harn Museum Modern Collection
    Modern Collection American, European and Latin American art The Harn Museum’s modern collection includes nearly 1,000 works spanning from the mid-19th century through the first half of the 20th century. The collection is divided into three geographically defined sub- collections: American art, European art and Latin American art. American art is further divided into three genre categories: painting, sculpture, and prints and drawings. A major strength of the modern collection is its representation of American art from the 1910s through the 1940s. Areas of special importance include landscapes, urban themes, social realist themes and Works Progress Administration prints. These works represent many significant movements in American art such as Impressionism, early Modernism, Cubism, Geometric Abstraction, Regionalism, and Urban and Social Realism. The core of the collection was established in the early 1990s through a major gift from William H. and Eloise R. Chandler of more than 50 paintings by well-known American artists such as George Bellows, John Steuart Curry, Philip Evergood, Rockwell Kent, Leon Kroll, Jack Levine, John Marin and John Sloan. During the last decade, the Harn has significantly added to the quality and depth of these holdings through purchases and generous gifts. These important contributions have continued to shape the museum’s representation of modern art in new and exciting directions. American paintings from the 19th century include fine examples by William Morris Hunt, Herman Herzog, William Aiken Walker and J. Alden Weir. Major movements of American art in the first half of the 20th century represented in the collection include Impressionism by artists such as Childe Hassam and Theodore Robinson; Post-Impressionism by Maurice Prendergast; and early Modernism and Abstraction by Milton Avery, Francis Criss, Preston Dickinson, Werner Drewes, Lyonel Feininger, Suzy Frelinghuysen, Albert Gallatin, Raymond Jonson, John Marin, Georgia O’Keeffe, Ben Shahn and Joseph Stella.
