Herman Maril — Portrait of a Man
Herman Maril

Portrait of a Man

1935

A compelling modernist portrait by American painter Herman Maril, depicting a young man in a dark jacket with a white undershirt against a muted teal-grey background. The work demonstrates Maril's characteristic simplified forms, flattened planes, and subdued palette, with the subject rendered in a quietly introspective, frontal three-quarter pose. Acquired from David Findlay Jr. Gallery in New York City, this circa 1935 canvas represents an early and strong example of Maril's figurative output. The white painted frame is consistent with period presentation.
