- Paul Cadmus was an American artist. He is best known for his paintings and drawings of nude male figures. His works combined elements of eroticism and social critique to produce a style often called magic realism. He painted with egg tempera, a medium which had been associated with Greek icons. In 1934 he painted The Fleet's In! while working for the Public Works of Art Project of the WPA. This painting, featuring carousing sailors, women, and a homosexual couple, was the subject of a public outcry and was removed from exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery. The publicity helped to launch his career. He worked in commercial illustration as well, but Jared French, another tempera artist who befriended him and became his lover for a time, convinced him to devote himself completely to fine art. Jon Anderson, who became Cadmus's longtime companion of 35 years, was a subject of many of his works. In 1999 he died in his home in Weston, Connecticut due to advanced age, just five days short of his 95 birthday. Cadmus's sister, Fidelma, was the wife of philanthropist and arts patron Lincoln Kirstein.

- Paul Cadmus, né le 17 décembre 1904 à New York et décédé le 12 décembre 1999 à Weston dans le Connecticut est un peintre, pastelliste et dessinateur américain. Pour son œuvre peinte, son style peut être qualifié de Réalisme fantastique. Il est surtout connu pour ses peintures mêlant critiques sociales et homoérotisme. Mais son œuvre, façonnée par des influences multiples, révèle des facettes stylistiques variées selon les époques. Sa sensibilité à la beauté du corps masculin restera sa ligne directrice tout au long de sa carrière. Il passera par divers médiums et techniques, mais sera particulièrement attaché à l’utilisation d’une technique ancienne, la tempera à l’œuf, qu’il mixera souvent à celle de l’huile.
