작품 상세

DESCRIPTION: Fine original watercolor by listed artist and illustrator Hugh Laidman. It is one of seven works by the artist we are selling done during his service with the USMC as a combat artist. It is a portrait of an unidentified officer of the United States Navy. I'm assuming this man was in the USN Medical Corps as it is similar to two other Laidman portraits that I am selling. Laidman began his artistic career as a one of the first combat artists in the US Marine Corps. After WWII he became a well known illustrator who did dozens of covers for many major magazines and also had a popular nationally syndicated cartoon strip.
