Third House for Edgar Hofschen #1

Jake Berthot was an American painter whose abstractions emerged from careful observation of light, color, and the materiality of paint itself. Working primarily in oil and acrylic on canvas from the 1960s onward, his compositions balance gestural mark-making with structured compositional discipline, reflecting a sustained engagement with postwar abstraction. His work occupied a distinctive position between the expressive abstraction of the 1950s and the conceptual developments of later decades.
