Oil on masonite, signed on the back "Chaet '42". 6 1/4" x 5 1/2" . A peculiar and charming student work from the Modernist painter and longtime Yale University professor Bernard Chaet, likely made as a first year student at the Boston Museum School, where he studied with Karle Zerbe. Smithsonian Bio: Bernard Chaet (1924-2012) was a painter and teacher in Boston, Massachusetts and New Haven, Connecticut. Chaet was born March 7, 1924 in Boston, and attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, studying with Karl Zerbe and graduating in 1949 with a B.S. from Tufts University which had an affiliated program with the MFA. On Zerbe's recommendation, he began teaching painting at Yale University in 1951, retiring in 1990. He exhibited often in Boston at the Boris Mirski Gallery and the Alpha Gallery. Chaet is the author of "Artists at Work" (1961), the "Art of Drawing" (1971 and 1977), and "An Artists's Notebook: Techniques and Materials" (1979).
