Excerpted from the University of Illinois, Urbana, Repository: UIHistories Project: Board of Trustees Minutes - 1956 [page 1001], One Thousand boxed portfolios (brochures with accompanying plates) by Abraham Rattner and one thousand additional four-color illustrations ABRAHAM RATTNER (1895-1978) was an American artist, best known for his richly colored paintings, often with religious subject matter. During World War I, he served in France with the U.S. Army as a camouflage artist. Rattner lived in Paris from 1920 until 1940, when he returned to New York City. He became known for his rich use of color and surrealist aspects of his work, which often pertained to religion. Although while living in Paris, he had met and studied the paintings of Claude Monet, his work is generally closer to that of Georges Rouault and Pablo Picasso. During World War II, he again volunteered for camouflage service, but was able to do very little (Culkin 1980). Later, he taught at several schools, including The New School, New York (1947–55), and Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut (1952–53).
