He was born and grew up in New York City. In 1887 he traveled to Europe and studied art in Hamburg, Berlin and Paris. He started his career as a cartoonist in 1894 and met with much success in this area. He also worked as a commercial caricaturist for 20 years. At the age of 36, he began to work as a fine artist. His work, characterized above all by prismatically broken, overlapping forms in translucent colors, with many references to architecture and the sea, made him one of the most important artists of classical modernism.

Lyonel Laurenceau
Lyonel Laurenceau (born 1942) is a Haitian painter. Laurenceau studied in Haiti, in the US and in France and creates paintings inspired by the human character. He won first prize at the New York City World's Fair in 1966 and later moved to Montreal (Canada) where he was made an honorary citizen of the city of Montreal. His work adheres to the contemporary undercurrents of Symbolic Expressionism. It continues to shape its era and ranks among the most sought after by art collectors.

Lyonel Power
Leonel Power (also spelled Lionel, Lyonel, Leonellus, Leonelle; Polbero), c. 1380–1445, was an English composer of the early Renaissance. Along with John Dunstaple he was a dominant figure of 15th-century English music. Mainly a composer of motets and of sections of the Mass, he is the best-represented contributor in the Old Hall Manuscript. Occasionally he is referred to by his Christian name only. Life and career Very little is known about Power's life. Documents dating from the early 1440s refer to him as a native of Kent. Stylistic analysis of his music, as well as his probable age during his known appointments, show that he may have been born between 1370 and 1385. A suggestion that Power was of Irish origin, which appeared in W.H.G. Flood's 1905 ''A History of Irish Music'', is usually discounted by modern scholars, since Flood is not known to have had any other sources on Power's life than are currently available. The earliest dated reference to Power refers to him a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
