About the Item
Born in 1916 in Lima, Ohio to a Mennonite family, John Landis Lehman was educated locally. He moved to Chicago in 1942 and enrolled at the Art Institute. By 1954 he had moved to Pennsylvania, establishing Katydid Press in Elizabethtown - producing limited editions of small books that he both designed and printed. Continuing his art studies, Lehman enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy’s summer program at Chester Springs. There he studied under Daniel Garber and Henry Pitz. He soon adopted the Impressionists love of color and brushstroke. As a younger artist however, Lehman had already developed a more modernist leaning, one that further developed under the influence of Garber.
This view is at Marietta, Pennsylvania from the east bank of the Susquehanna River looking west to the York County shore nearing sunset. Lehman’s use of cool purples and blues is enriched by hints and dashes of warmer shades of pinks and reds. The overall effect is one of calm and subtle natural beauty. He applied the paint confidently and allowed his brushstrokes to do the work. This demonstrates his modernist tendencies and advanced artistic abilities.
The oil on canvas measures 16” x 20” and is signed lower right. It is in very good condition, having been recently cleaned. The period wood frame has an applied grey rubbed finish enhanced by a thin linen liner and is also in good condition. The overall framed dimensions are 20 1/4” x 24 1/4”.
