A graphite pencil painting on paper depicting a portrait of a young man. Signed, Leon Gaspard, lower left. Framed. Leon Shulman Gaspard, Russian, American, French, 1882 to 1964, was a Russian born painter, known for his paintings of indigenous cultures and folk traditions. He tended to paint scenes with throngs of people, and his favourite locations were in small towns in Russia, Asia, and the Taos Valley. Gaspard found artistic success in Taos, where Gaspard moved in 1918. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Gaspard continued to paint Russia, and far off places, rather than focus on the local Native Americans and landscape. Though an anomaly, Gaspard's work was respected; in 1961, Gaspard had a one man show in Taos. His work sold steadily in New York City, Detroit, Los Angeles and San Francisco, and he was well known and financially successful. Russian and American Fine Art, Male Portrait Paintings, and Collectibles. One of a kind artwork.
