The Following is Quoted From: The Art and History of Guy Rose (1867-1925) an American Impressionist Artist

It is interesting that California born Guy Orlando Rose eventually painted in France and was influenced by the great masters of French Impressionism. He was born March 3, 1867 in San Gabriel, California and was the seventh child of Leonard John Rose and Amanda Jones Rose. His passion for art drove him to be eventually recognized as one of California's top impressionist painters of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His talent and importance to Impressionism and to the California Impressionist Art Movement is recognized and respected internationally and throughout the United States.

Guy Orlando Rose was an American artist who holds a high place in the California School of Impressionism. He was born March 3, 1867 in San Gabriel, California and was the seventh child of Leonard John Rose and Amanda Jones Rose. He has become recognized as one of California's top impressionist painters of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Born the son of a prominent California senator, young Guy Rose was raised on a large Southern California ranch and vineyard -- the town of Rosemead bears the family name. In 1876 he was accidentally shot in the face during a hunting trip with his brothers. While recuperating he began to sketch and use watercolors and oil paints. He graduated from Los Angeles High School in 1884 and moved to San Francisco where he did his art training at the California School of Design.
In September 12, 1888, Rose enrolled at the Academie Julian in Paris and studied with Benjamin-Constant, Jules Lefebvre, Lucien Doucet and Jean-Paul Laurens while in Paris. In 1888-89, he won a scholarship at the Academie Delacluse. He met fellow students Frank Vincent and Frederick Melville at the Academie Julian -- Frank Vincent and Guy Rose were to remain lifelong friends. Rose lived New York, New York in the 1890s and illustrated for "Harper's," "Scribners," and "Century".

Returning to France in 1899, he and his wife Ethel Rose bought a cottage at Giverny. In 1900 he resided in Paris and spent the winter in Briska, Algeria where he painted three known paintings. From 1904 to 1912 husband and wife lived in Giverny and his works from this period show the influence of "the master" Monet, who became his friend and mentor.
