Note: "Antimo Beneduce born in Naples, Italy, Antimo Beneduce was a watercolorist of landscape subjects and teacher, who was an instructor at the Cleveland School of Art from 1928 to 1933. After that, he taught privately. He traveled extensively in quest of subject matter, and of his approach to painting, said: "I paint what I see. I try to convey life with all its glory of light and shadow thru the emotional experience it presents to me. I work directly from nature (on the spot) and find working that way brings a closeness to my subject that I never find working indoors in my studio." He emigrated to the United States with his family when he was age ten, and the family settled in Akron, Ohio. He later studied at the Cleveland School of Art."
