Harry Leon Engle was born in Richmond, IN and studied at the Chicago Art Institute. He made early painting trips to Brown County with "L.O. Griffith":/artists/by_name/louis_oscar_lo_griffith. Engle had a strong painting career until he began running the Chicago Galleries Association through his retirement (and the Association closing) in 1957. "I was contacted by Harry Leon Engle's daughter around 2006 regarding a piece of art (not her father's) that she was interested in selling. I indicated that I was also interested in her father's work and wondered why I didn't see more of it on the market. She indicated that as part of the deal with his Chicago Galleries Association position, staff was not allowed to sell work through the Association and this effectively limited his output" --Curt Churchman, Fine Estate Art & Rugs <BR> We are very interested in purchasing artwork by Harry Leon Engle.
