1926
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Old Grumpy is a 1926 by Henry Keller, depicting Parrot, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows an old man with a thick white beard. He sits in a wooden chair with a dark coat on. One hand grips a cane. His face is wrinkled and he looks tired. Keller lived in Cleveland and often painted local people. This man could be a neighbor or someone from the neighborhood. The background is simple, so the focus stays on the man’s expression. Look up Henry Keller (American, born Germany, 1869–1949) to see more of his work.
Henry George Keller (April 3, 1869 – August 3, 1949) was an American artist who led a generation of Ohio watercolor painters of the Cleveland School.
