Richard McLean Animal Prints
American, 1934-2014
Richard Thorpe McLean (1934–2014) was an American painter recognized as one of the key figures of Photorealism. Born in Hoquiam, Washington, he studied at the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, where he received his B.F.A. in 1958, and later earned his M.F.A. at Mills College in 1962. McLean gained acclaim in the late 1960s and 1970s for his meticulously detailed depictions of horses, often drawn from images in equestrian magazines or his own photography. His works captured the glossy precision of show horses and the tension of competition arenas, balancing photographic accuracy with painterly sensitivity. He became associated with a group of realist painters whose work blurred the line between painting and photography, and his pieces were included in important exhibitions such as Twenty-Two Realists at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1970. McLean’s paintings and prints are represented in major public collections, including the Whitney, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Though best known for equestrian subjects, his later work expanded into broader landscapes where horses appeared incidentally, reflecting a shift in focus. Throughout his career, McLean maintained a reputation for technical mastery and a distinct vision within the Photorealist movement, leaving behind a body of work that remains valued both for its precision and its cultural resonance.to

Reuven Rubin 1893 -1974 was a Romanian-born Israeli painter and Israel's first ambassador to Romania.
Rubin Zelicovici (later Reuven Rubin) was born in Gala?i to a poor Romanian Jewish Hasidic family. He was the eighth of 13 children. In 1912, he left for Ottoman-ruled Palestine to study art at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem. Finding himself at odds with the artistic views of the Academy's teachers, he left for Paris, France, in 1913 to pursue his studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. At the outbreak of World War I, he was returned to Romania, where he spent the war years.
In 1921, he traveled to the United States with his friend and fellow artist, Arthur Kolnik, with whom he had shared a studio in Cernovitzu. In New York City, the two met artist Alfred Stieglitz, who was instrumental in organizing their first American show at the Anderson Gallery.Following the exhibition, in 1922, they both returned to Europe. In 1923, Rubin emigrated to Mandate Palestine.
Rubin met his wife, Esther, in 1928, aboard a passenger ship to Palestine on his return from a show in New York. She was a Bronx girl who had won a trip to Palestine in a Young Judea competition. He died in 1974
