Est: $3,000 - $4,000
Aaron Bohrod (1907-1992) Untitled (Snowy Farmstead) Mid 20th Century The stylized regionalist landscape is signed lower right front. Prior to World War II, Aaron Bohrod was a significant American Scene painter and printmaker. His work in this period was steeped in both Regionalism and Social Realism: movements that aimed to depict real American life during the Great Depression. His early work often portrayed Chicago street scenes and American landscapes, documenting everyday people and locales. In the 1930s he received Guggenheim Fellowships, enabling him to travel widely and paint regional scenes across the U.S., and he was commissioned by the Works Progress Administration to execute three post office murals in Illinois. These public artworks were also rooted in Regionalist and socially minded themes. The work itself measures 16 x 20 inches. The framed size is 24 x 28 inches.

AARON BOHROD (1907-1992) TROMPE-L'OEIL OIL ON PANEL
Est: $1,200 - $1,800
Aaron Bohrod (1907-1992) Blue Roses and Peanut Birds Circa 1975 The whimsical and well-framed 'thumb-box' size oil on gesso panel is a fine example of Aaron Bohrod's highly technical trademark technique of ''fool the eye,'' or trompe l'oeil as it's known in French - an approach to painting that dates to fifteenth-century Europe. The work is signed within the image lower right, on a faux painted and gog-eared piece of paper, titled verso. Aaron Bohrod (1907-1992) was a notable and prolific artist renowned for his mastery of the trompe-l'Åil painting technique, a term that translates from French to English as 'optical illusion' or 'to deceive the eye.' He initially gained recognition as an artist for his social realism genre scenes in the 1930s. After the war, he transitioned to the trompe l'oeil style of which he is an obvious master. The work is displayed i what appears to be its original frame, one of very nice quality. Sight size measures 4.75 x 6.5 with a framed size of 13.25 x 15.25 inches.

Aaron Bohrod Wisconsin, Illinois, (1907 - 1992) portrait of a man mixed media / pastel on paper signed lower left. With letter from the artist. Biography from Williams American Art Galleries: Aaron Bohrod's work has not been limited to one style or medium. Initially recognized as a regionalist painter of American scenes, particularly of his native Chicago, Bohrod later devoted himself to detailed still-life paintings rendered in the trompe l'oeil style. He also worked for several years in ceramics and wrote a book on pottery. Born in 1907, Bohrod began his studies at Chicago's Crane Junior College in 1925, and two years later enrolled in the Art Institute of Chicago. But it was at the Art Students League in New York City, from 1930 to 1932, that he studied under the man believed to be his most significant early influence, John Sloan. Sloan's romantic realism is reflected in the many depictions of Chicago life, which comprised most of Bohrod's early work. Under Sloan's tutelage, Bohrod came to subscribe to the belief that painters should find the subjects of their art in the immediate world around them. These paintings emphasized architecture unique to north Chicago and featured Chicagoans engaged in such everyday activities as working, playing or going to the theatre. The romantic aspect was conveyed by the use of misty colors, and the realism by attention to detail. In 1936, Bohrod won the Guggenheim Fellowship award in creative painting. It enabled him to travel the United States, producing similar regionalist paintings on a much broader range of subjects. Nevertheless, most of his early work centered on Chicago and the urban Midwest. In 1943, Bohrod was commissioned by editors of Life magazine to cover the battlefronts as a war correspondent and artist. Three years later, Bohrod was invited to become the Artist in Residence at the University of Wisconsin, a position that became vacant with the unexpected death of John Steuart Curry. He would remain at the University from 1948 to his retirement in 1973. Then, quite atypically, fantasy started to appear in his work. Elements of Surrealism, supposedly inspired by his concurrent involvement in ceramics with F. Carlton Ball, began influencing his landscapes. By 1953, Bohrod had completely ceased painting landscapes, turning instead to often symbolic still-life subjects. He abandoned his earlier romantic realism to paint in the luminous trompe l'oeil tradition of William Harnett. Bohrod continued to produce these meticulously crafted fantasies exclusively. While in his position at the University of Wisconsin, Bohrod painted covers for Time magazine and authored two books, A Pottery Sketch-book (1959) and A Decade of Still Life (1966), in which are produced many of his trompe l'oeil paintings. Bohrod died in Madison, Wisconsin, in 1992.
