Grossmann, Walter. (American, born Germany c. 1890s - 1980s) NAKED MAN SEATED. Drawing, Ink and watercolorl on paper, circa 194-1916. 9 1/8 x 6 1/2 inches. Foxing and creasing to the sheet.This drawing was part of an archive of this artist's works. From the materials in the archive we have concluded that Walter Grossman was born in Germany, studied art, served in the German army in World War I, eventually came to America and became a physician in Connecticut. We do not believe that he had a professional career as an artist, but his work shows profciency, and an appreciation for the art movements of the early 20th Century. It appears that the materials were stored under poor conditions for a long time, and some have suffered, with wrinkling, foxing, paper losses, and dampstaining affecting some.

Richman, Brad. NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE, SEPTEMBER 12, 1998. Gelatin Silver print, 1998. Signed verso. 16 x 20 inches. In excellent condition. The following is quoted from the website of the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College in Chicago: Richman, Brad American, b. 1971 Taking the typical zoom-in, rapid-fire sports photograph has never been my intent. Instead, I approach basketball in the same manner I do street photography. Yes, fleeting moments must be stopped in a split-second of time. But taking precedence over the slam-dunk, buzzer beating shot and no-look pass are the subtler moments of action: the force of people pressing against each other; the darting moves to the basket, bodies suspended in mid-air; the anticipation, looking skyward, waiting for the rebound. - Brad Richman Nicknamed "The White Shadow," Brad Richman was the only white player on his middle-school basketball team. As time progressed, however, he moved away from playing basketball and instead began to photograph… Read More
