Guy
Rose
By Armand Cabrera
Guy Rose was born in San Gabriel, California on
March 3, 1867, the seventh of eleven children. He was the
son of J. L. Rose, a former senator and large Southern California
landholder and rancher. When Guy was a young boy, he was
shot in the jaw in a hunting accident. While he was recuperating,
he developed an affinity for drawing.
Guy Rose moved to San Francisco after high school. In San
Francisco, Rose began his formal art training at the School
of Design under Virgil Williams and Emil Carlson. In 1888,
he studied in Paris at the Academie Julian under Jean-Joseph
Benjamin Constant, Jules Lefebvre and Jean Paul Laurens.
In 1894, Rose received an honorable mention at the Paris
Salon---the first California painter to do so.
