Odalisque

I love the artistic sensibilities of the 20s and 30s, and this odalisque shines. My understanding is that the artist's name is Joseph Douglas, but the signature is Douglas Joseph, dated 1921. Anybody have any light on that?

About Me

My Photo
Thomas Haller Buchanan
My name is Thom Buchanan. I'm an artist and photographer. People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years. I refer to myself as a pictorialist, as I don't limit myself in the process of how an image is made. Images are my life.
View my complete profile
I intend to share many of my pictorial treasures, some not terribly rare, but terribly meaningful to me. I like to zoom in on details along the way and share what has inspired me in my career as an artist. And I would like to examine the value of pictorial images, not in terms of money, but in degrees of imagination.

I refer to myself as a pictorialist, not just in my set of skills, but in my lifelong appreciation of the skills and talents of artists, illustrators, cartoonists, sculptors, photographers, typographers, and graphic designers. I'd like to share that appreciation with anyone who stumbles into my little world.

It's a good little world!
