CONTACT US SKU#: 118739 US Shipping $149 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Charles Baskerville, Jr., was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, but moved with his family to New York as a child when his father (and namesake) was hired as a chemistry professor at the College of the City of New York. After high school, Baskerville enrolled at Cornell University in hopes of becoming an architect. There, in addition to his major studies, he gained practical experience as the art director of both the university's yearbook and its satire magazine, The Cornell University Widow. Though his focus eventually shifted to painting, Baskerville would routinely turn to book and magazine illustration as an artistic outlet throughout his career.Baskerville's studies were interrupted in 1917 when the United States entered World War I. In July of 1918, the young lieutenant was injured in combat, resulting in a brief hospital stay. During his convalescence, Baskerville passed the time by making sketches that were later published Scribner's Magazine. These drawings included images of his comrades at rest, injured troops, and scenes of soldiers in the midst of the very conflict that had resulted in his own injury, according to the magazine. Twelve days after his initial injury, Baskerville was exposed to gas in a separate skirmish, which left him shell shocked and incapacitated, resulting in an honorable discharge that earned him a Silver Star for gallantry in action.After his graduation from Cornell in 1919, Baskerville pursued work as a commercial artist and portrait painter in New York. As a contributor to The New Yorker, he wrote and illustrated a popular nightclub column under the pseudonym, Top Hat, resulting in widespread recognition throughout the city and increased portrait commissions. As a portraitist, Baskerville was sought out by an elite clientele that included an impressive roster of influential citizens, from business executives and socialites to actresses and foreign leaders.Baskerville was also extremely prolific as a muralist and a painter of still lifes, such as Yellow Apple. His mural work surely benefited from the connections he made as a portraitist, because the commissions were often located in the kinds of spaces that his patrons especially wealthy women and military officials frequented. For instance, Baskerville was commissioned to paint the murals in the first-class lounge of the ocean liner SS America, the conference room used by the Joint Committee on Military Affairs at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, and the pool house at the Long Island estate of businessman and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney.Military service in World War II took Lieutenant Colonel Baskerville abroad as the official portrait painter of the United States Air Force. In that position, he created over sixty portraits of officers and soldiers that were exhibited widely during and after the war, and are now on permanent display at the Pentagon. These portraits, Baskerville said, are what I am proudest of. Paintings by Charles Baskerville are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

No visible inpaint under UV light.

CONTACT US SKU#: 118739 US Shipping $149 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Charles Baskerville, Jr., was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, but moved with his family to New York as a child when his father (and namesake) was hired as a chemistry professor at the College of the City of New York. After high school, Baskerville enrolled at Cornell University in hopes of becoming an architect. There, in addition to his major studies, he gained practical experience as the art director of both the university's yearbook and its satire magazine, The Cornell University Widow. Though his focus eventually shifted to painting, Baskerville would routinely turn to book and magazine illustration as an artistic outlet throughout his career.Baskerville's studies were interrupted in 1917 when the United States entered World War I. In July of 1918, the young lieutenant was injured in combat, resulting in a brief hospital stay. During his convalescence, Baskerville passed the time by making sketches that were later published Scribner's Magazine. These drawings included images of his comrades at rest, injured troops, and scenes of soldiers in the midst of the very conflict that had resulted in his own injury, according to the magazine. Twelve days after his initial injury, Baskerville was exposed to gas in a separate skirmish, which left him shell shocked and incapacitated, resulting in an honorable discharge that earned him a Silver Star for gallantry in action.After his graduation from Cornell in 1919, Baskerville pursued work as a commercial artist and portrait painter in New York. As a contributor to The New Yorker, he wrote and illustrated a popular nightclub column under the pseudonym, Top Hat, resulting in widespread recognition throughout the city and increased portrait commissions. As a portraitist, Baskerville was sought out by an elite clientele that included an impressive roster of influential citizens, from business executives and socialites to actresses and foreign leaders.Baskerville was also extremely prolific as a muralist and a painter of still lifes, such as Yellow Apple. His mural work surely benefited from the connections he made as a portraitist, because the commissions were often located in the kinds of spaces that his patrons especially wealthy women and military officials frequented. For instance, Baskerville was commissioned to paint the murals in the first-class lounge of the ocean liner SS America, the conference room used by the Joint Committee on Military Affairs at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, and the pool house at the Long Island estate of businessman and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney.Military service in World War II took Lieutenant Colonel Baskerville abroad as the official portrait painter of the United States Air Force. In that position, he created over sixty portraits of officers and soldiers that were exhibited widely during and after the war, and are now on permanent display at the Pentagon. These portraits, Baskerville said, are what I am proudest of. Paintings by Charles Baskerville are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

Est: $600 - $900
**First Time At Auction** Charles Baskerville (American, 1896-1994). Untitled watercolor, ca. 1940. Signed on the lower left. A beautiful watercolor of a Moroccan market frequented by sailors dressed in their US Navy service dress white uniforms by American artist Charles Baskerville who served in both World War I and World War II. Local women dressed in hoodedcoats and men wearing turbans and flowing garments are present at the market, some shopping and others minding their fresh produce stands, some shaded by fabric awnings, others standing on a walkway, under a tree, or beneath an arch at the top of a stairway. A very special composition by Charles Baskerville, an artist who served in both World Wars. Size: 9.875" L x 6.875" W (25.1 cm x 17.5 cm) Size of frame: 17.25" L x 13.2" W (43.8 cm x 33.5 cm) Charles Baskerville studied at Cornell University, but his studies were interrupted by World War I. He served in the Rainbow Division as a lieutenant and earned a Silver Star. During the war he sketched fellow soldiers, and several of his drawings were published in Scribner's Magazine. Charles returned to Cornell after the war, graduated in 1919, and embarked on an art career which was again interrupted by war. He served as a lieutenant colonel in the US Army Air Force during World War II and also worked as a portrait painter. In addition to being a portraitist, Baskerville was a prolific muralist and still life painter. Baskerville's clientele was comprised of an impressive list of elites, "from business executives and socialites to actresses and foreign leaders" and many of his compositions were created when he served during World War II. According to the Johnson Collection website, "His mural work surely benefitted from the connections he made as a portraitist, because the commissions were often located in the kinds of spaces that his patronsespecially wealthy women and military officialsfrequented. For instance, Baskerville was commissioned to paint the murals in the first-class lounge of the ocean liner SS America, the conference room used by the Joint Committee on Military Affairs at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, and the pool house at the Long Island estate of businessman and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney. Military service in World War II took Lieutenant Colonel Baskerville abroad as the official portrait painter of the United States Air Force. In that position, he created over sixty portraits of officers and soldiers that were exhibited widely during and after the war, and are now on permanent display at the Pentagon. These portraits, Baskerville said, 'are what I am proudest of.' Paintings by Charles Baskerville are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum." This painting comes to us from the estate of William Draper. In 1942, William Draper joined the Navy, and served as a combat artist when stationed on the Aleutian Islands and in the South Pacific. He observed and painted battle scenes on Bougainville, Guam, Saipan, and other locations, as well as genre scenes of soldiers not engaged in combat but rather between battles. Provenance: The William F. Draper Collection, New York City, USA, acquired via descent from the late William Franklin Draper (1912-2003), an accomplished American artist whose career spanned seven decades. Known as the "Dean of American Portraiture," William Draper was the only artist to paint President John F. Kennedy from life, and his oeuvre All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

Condition: Stretcher marks, craquelure, minor accretions Lower Center, Small abrasion with pigment loss Lower Right., wear near corner. Provenance: Commissioned from the artist by Jane and Charles Engelhard Jr., 1959; to John Bailye, New Jersey (as part of the purchase of Cragwood); estate sale, Cragwood, Far Hills, New Jersey, 2019; to the current owner. N.B. Sought as a portraitist, Charles Baskerville's international clientele included Jawaharlal Nehru, William S. Paley, the Duchess of Windsor, Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon, Richard Rodgers, Helen Hayes, and the King of Nepal. Many of those same patrons commissioned Baskerville to adorn their homes and businesses with large-scale murals. His paintings were installed in the first-class lounge of the ocean liner SS America, the conference room used by the Joint Committee on Military Affairs at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, and the pool house at Whitney's Long Island estate. After completing two portraits of American precious metals magnate, philanthropist, and race horse owner Charles W. Engelhard, Engelhard and his wife commissioned Baskerville to paint this mural for the pool house at their New Jersey equestrian estate, Cragwood. The Engelhards flew Baskerville to their home in Johannesburg, where the artist toured Engelhard's businesses there—gold mines and timber plantations—for inspiration. Baskerville described the resulting abstract painting as "a stylized goldmine dump and a geometric pattern reflecting his [Engelhard's] pine and eucalyptus forests."
