Albert Eugene Gallatin (American, 1881–1952)

Albert Eugene Gallatin's collection of important works by Picasso, Braque, Léger, and other modern painters and sculptors forms one of the cornerstones of the Philadelphia Museum of Art's significant holdings of twentieth-century art. Gallatin was also an artist in his own right, having studied briefly with the American realist painter Robert Henri in the 1920s. His paintings reflect the influence of Picasso and other abstract artists represented in his collection, which for many years was placed on loan to New York University. His mature painting style gradually evolved into a stripped-down form of Synthetic Cubism, in which he rendered flat, abstracted forms with a reduced palette.
