Emil Ganso

U.S. 1895-1941
Portrait of a Woman 47.0856

Largely self-taught, Emil Ganso came to the U.S. from Halberstadt, Germany, in 1912, and taught at the University of Iowa. Influenced by the work of Henri Matisse and the Fauves, his use of acidic colors and expressive line creates a vibrant, emotional portrait of this unknown sitter.
