Item Details
Description
Albert Thomas De Rome (1885 - 1959) Watercolor on Paper, Signed Lower Right, Measures (5 x 7 inches) w/frame (10 x 11 inches) Born in Cayucos, California, Albert De Rome became a California landscape painter, especially of natural landscapes formations, seascapes and marine scenes near Carmel and Monterey. Usually his palette was bright in both oil and watercolor, but he did the occasional nocturne. Scholars have compared his painting style and subjects to those of Thomas Hill and Albert Bierstadt. However, Albert De Rome never affiliated with any formal group of painters, although he had many close friends including Percy Gray, Gunnar Widforss and Will Sparks. As a young man, Thomas De Rome worked at the Congress Spring Hotel in Saratoga, and in San Francisco at the Globe Foundry, owned by an uncle. He studied art under Arthur Mathews, John Stanton and Lorenzo Latimer at the Mark Hopkins Institute in San Francisco. Early in his career, he became known for political cartoons for the San Jose Mercury News
