Biography from the Archives of askART
Guy Rose was active/lived in California / France. Guy Rose is known for impressionist landscape and marine, painting, portrait, genre.
Born in San Gabriel, California on March 3, 1867, Guy Rose was the son of a former senator who was a large Southern California landholder and rancher (the town of Rosemead and the boulevard bearing that name are in honor of the Rose family.) After graduating from Los Angeles High School, Rose moved to San Francisco where he began his art training at the School of Design under Virgil Williams and Emil Carlsen.
In 1888 he further studied in Paris under Constant, Lefebvre and Doucet at Academie Julian. In 1894 he received an honorable mention at the Paris Salon; he was the first Californian to receive an award from that prestigious institution. In 1899, Rose bought a cottage in Giverny. It was there that he was greatly influenced by Monet and the French Impressionists. He suffered from lead poisoning, which affected his vision and crippled his hands, and was unable to paint for various periods of time.
In 1912 he returned to the United States and in 1914 made his final move back to Pasadena where he taught and served as director at the Stickney School of Art. In 1920 he again suffered lead poisoning and a stroke the following year left him paralyzed. He died on November 17, 1925. His oeuvre includes Southern California coastal scenes, missions and landscapes of California and France for which he is internationally known.
