Charles James Sindelar (27 May 1875 – 15 May 1947) was an American illustrator and painter, who in later life focused on religious art.
Sindelar established a reputation for himself in graphic design and illustration during the first quarter of the 20th century through his favourably reviewed[1] creation of a number of menu cover designs produced for a series of events referred to as the Lotos Club dinners, in New York City.
[2] Sindelar's covers incorporated a likeness of the celebrity who was being feted at the event, accompanied by intricate detailing.
Gerald Barbee Bryan gave Sindelar credit for the portrait of the Count of St. Germain which was displayed on stage during services of the I AM movement.
[6] Norman Robert Westfall, writing as "Mah Atmah Amsumata", gave Sindelar credit for two more portraits, one of Jesus Christ, the other of Maitreya.
