A Lieutenant in the United States Navy, Henry Reuterdahl, 1871-1925, was best known for his paintings of Navy warships and recruiting posters for World War I, though he did exhibit in the 1913 Armory Show*, in New York City. He also painted landscapes in a kind of tapestry-like, pointillist*, impasto* style. He taught in New York City before the turn of the century.
While the other armed services during World War I had a kind of clearing house for selecting posters for the War (showing 500 of 5682 characters). |
