1954

About the Item

Label verso from Paul Rosenberg Gallery. (this was 600$ in 1954!) 18 X 26 without frame. 19 X 27.75 with frame Raymond was born in Clifton, New Jersey, in 1925, of German descent. After the second World War, Raymond was a sapper in the US army. He was posted to Dresden searching for mines and unexploded bombs. Following this, he spent four years studying art in the US and Paris. He first showed his work in New York in 1950 and seven of his paintings were displayed in a presentation of new talent at the Museum of Modern Art in 1951. During the 1950s, he was represented by Paul Rosenberg, one of the most respected dealers of the time. When Raymond moved from New Jersey to Puy-de-Dôme, France, in 1955, the subject matter of his work changed, developing from predominantly figurative paintings to landscapes featuring orchards, vegetable gardens, fields and vineyards. Raymond was greatly influenced by icon painting. He used a layered technique, according to the icon tradition, and achieved a rich and colourful luminosity by glazing the paint when it had formed a sufficiently dry surface on which to work. On returning to live in New Jersey, Raymond continued exhibiting at the Paul Rosenberg Gallery, where Picasso and Braque were part of the stable of artists. Later, when Rosenberg died, Raymond moved to the Rhen Gallery, where he was an associate of Edward Hopper and Reginald Marsh. When the couple arrived in Ireland in 1969, they brought with them their American Jeep, which had a double gearbox. He loved autumn, just as the colours were changing on the mountainsides, and this gave a distinctiveness to his landscapes.
