About the Item

Benjamin Kopman: 1887-1965. Well listed artist born in Russia, but came to U.S. in 1903. He studied at the National Academy of Design in NYC. He has had auction results over $5000 but has sold for much more in galleries. I have seen several examples of his signature where his K looks more like an H. as in this work. Although I am fairly confident this is an important work by him, I am attributing it, as I am not a Kopman expert. Painting is an oil on canvas and measures 29 inches high by 16 1/2 wide. The frame is 34 inches by 21 1/2. The painting has several areas of missing or flaked paint, but there are so many layers of impasto that it does not take away from this beautiful work. Style of this piece reminds me of Modigliani.
