- Michael Gnatek has long been
recognized as the premier portrait painter, both of American
military and western figures. His range of subject matter is
remarkably diverse from strongly confident poses of Patton, Stuart,
Lee, Jackson and a young Confederate Standard-Bearer to the quiet
tranquility of Sitting Bull, an Indian Sundancer, a solitary
mountain man and a demure Crow maiden. His artistic print history
is not extensive because each original requires from four to
six months for completion. He has done two beautiful paintings
of patton and one of Douglas MacArthur.
Gnatek's unfailing attention to historic and geographic accuracy
has earned him membership in the prestigious Society of American
Historical Artists (SAHA). He was born in Hadley, Massachusetts,
studied at Yale University's School of Design and spent his three-year
tenure with the U.S. Marine Corps as a combat artist.
