About the artwork

Realistic acrylic portrait painting of the American painter Edward Henry Potthast (Cincinnati, 10 June 1857 - New York, 9 March 1927), painted by Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering - the original painting measures 90 x 120 cm.

Potthast received his initial training from 1879 to 1881 at the McMicken School of Design in Cincinnati, where he was taught by Thomas Satterwhite Noble. He then went to Europe and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. After a brief return to America, he went to Paris in 1886 and apprenticed with Fernand Cormon. He returned to New York in 1895 and would subsequently live there until his death in 1927. He remained unmarried.

Potthast worked in an impressionist style. The influence of the Munich school can also be recognised in the somewhat subdued colours, which he nevertheless contrasted sharply, often with bright accents. From his return to New York in 1896, he painted mainly beach scenes, en plein air, often on Long Island and on the New England coast. He also produced a variety of landscapes, including in Central Park. Much of his work is painted in full sunlight, which gives his work a zest for life.

Potthast also often worked as a lithographer for a living early in his career, and later as a magazine illustrator. He exhibited regularly, winning several awards, and today his work can be seen in numerous major US museums.
