Abel George Warshawsky (1883-1962) American
Abel George Warshawsky (American, 1883-1962) Oil on canvas portrait. Largely a painter known for his busy, impressionistic scenes of life on the streets of Paris, Abel Warshawsky spent about thirty years in France. He mastered two styles: his own variant of French impressionism and a striking realism, which he applied to his many penetrating and superb portraits. While his street scenes are modern in their depiction of boisterous, fleeting contemporary activity, the portraits embody the spirit of Old Europe. Their sincerity and integrity have a counterpart in the portraits of Charles W. Hawthorne, the great teacher of Provincetown. In spite of their debt to the doctrines of late nineteenth-century French naturalism, Warshawsky's portraits have more distant roots.
