Description: Paul Joachim Navy Man Landscape American Impressionist Oil Painting Homestead. About the Artist Paul Lamar Joachim achieved success as an artist, gallery owner and military officer. He was born in Washington, DC and studied painting at the National Art School. Joachim was also a Naval Academy cadet, who graduated from Annapolis in 1934. He initially pursued a career in the Navy, where he served during World War II as a communications officer for the 7th Fleet, and during the Korean War, he served as executive officer of the battleship New Jersey and won a combat bronze star. Joachim achieved the rank of rear admiral before retiring from the Navy in 1954. While serving in the Navy and afterwards, Joachim pursued a parallel career as a painter. His works were widely exhibited, including at the Corcoran Gallery of Art (1951), the National Gallery of Art (1951, 1952), the Arts Club of Washington (1952), the Springfield Museum of Art (1957) and the Norfolk Museum of Art & Science (1953, 1954 - where he won the Irene Leach Memorial Prize). During the 1950s, Joachim became an art dealer in Chicago where he operated the eponymous Paul Joachim Gallery until his untimely death in 1962 at the age of 50. Joachim was murdered as he was returning home from the ballet. An interested footnote is that Joachim’s unsolved murder made national news and has been tied by some conspiracy theorists to the assignation of John F Kennedy. Joachim is listed in Who was Who in American Art.
