Emil Lindenfeld

Emil Lindenfeld (1905 - 1986) was active/lived in New York / Italy, Hungary.  Emil Lindenfeld is known for Symbolist figure, clowns, street people.

The following is from Don Purcell of New York City, who knew the artist personally.

Born in Hungary, Emil Lindenfeld studied there under Janos Tornai and Sandor Fay. In 1926, he went to Italy where he lived and painted for 30 years and received the honor of election to the Councilor of Italian Fine Arts in 1946.

In 1956, at the time of the uprising in Hungary, he emigrated to New York City with his first wife, who had survived the concentration camps and whose dream was to come to America. An interesting anecdote is that Emil and Eva were booked to sail on the ill-fated Andrea Doria, with his life's work of several hundred paintings. Fortunately the Italian government caused much red tape over the departure of classic Italian art work. If it were not for this bureaucratic delay, his best work would be at the bottom of the Atlantic. The Lindenfelds then sailed on the sister ship of the Doria.

Lindenfeld's work was exhibited at Barnard College, the New York Coliseu   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 5004 characters.]  Artist bio
