Abstracted Landscape with a Tree
Drawing in pencil on wove paper, ca. 1944, 272 x 350 mm., dedicated and signed in pencil.
Kantor was born in Minsk, Russia and came to the United States when he was ten. He studied both in New York and in Paris and while initially drawn to abstract painting, he also developed a more representational style and moved back and forth between the two. In this strangely beautiful drawing he appears to be in mid-step. Many of Kantor’s works are in the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and one drawing there, of similar facture, is dated 1944 and is said to be part of a series devoted to Monhegan Island, off the coast of Maine. The rocky cliff, the twisted evergreen and the implied, if undrawn, ocean water here would fit that location. Kantor would not be the first artist, nor the last, to be inspired by it.
