CARL JOHAN NORDELL

Nordell  was born in Copenhagen on 23 September 1885.  In 1892 the Nordell family settled in Westerly, New Jersey, where Carl Johan, one of several children, received his education.  Reportedly, a local gambler and art collector, Richard Canfield was so impressed with young Nordell's talent that he assisted him to gain admittance to the Rhode Island School of Design. Carl was a tireless student and serious in his studies of art, literature, and philosophy. Friends nicknamed him "The American Frans Hals," as a result of his study of that Dutch master.  After graduating from the school in 1905, Nordell continued his training at the Art Students League in New York City for the following two years.  There he received criticism and instruction from George Bridgman (1864-1943), a noted teacher of anatomy, and Frank Vincent DuMond (1865-1951), a landscapist associated with Old Lyme.
