About the Artist: Born in Vienna, Joseph Margulies became
a distinguished portrait and landscape painter
as a resident of New York City. He received
his formal training at the National Academy
of Design, Cooper Union, as well as the Art
Students League and continued his studies
abroad in Paris, Vienna and Rome.
He received many commissions
for his acclaimed
portraits but still made time
to paint scenes
of Central Park, Riverside Drive
and other
landmarks of New York City. He
was also active
with the Rockport Art Association
of Cape
Ann and maintained a studio in
Gloucester
where he did marine and harbor
views. Margulies
was inspired by, "the stark
drama of
the harbor. The years in Gloucester
were
a pivotal time for Margulies,
made famous
in compelling works exploding
with bright
Fauvist colors, executed in energetic
and
vigorous brushstrokes."
Margulies is also noted for etchings,
aquatints
and watercolors. He remained
staunchly independent
from abstract styles as they
were the new
fashion.
