Charles Henry Harmon Oakland
Early painting of inner San Francisco-Oakland Bay. It is possibly a nocturnal but could also after cleaning be a morning scene. Size is 29" X 44" (canvas). Born in Mansfield, Ohio, he moved to San Jose, California as a youngster. At a young age, he was apprenticed to Louis Lussier, a local portrait painter. He also worked in a photography studio. He had no formal art training but loved to visit galleries and began painting in the Santa Clara Valley. He also went to many other remote areas. By the turn of the century, Gumps department store of San Francisco handled his work exclusively. In 1905, he settled a studio in Denver and began commissions for the Santa Fe Railroad to paint scenes along their route. He spent his later years in San Jose, California where he died. Shipping to be calculated and additional charge.
