Canvas size: 23"H x 28"W
Henry B. Goode (Hungarian-American, 1882-1966) was born in Budapest, Hungary. He began painting boats sailing the blue Danube in Budapest at the age of 4-1/2. His art education continued in Budapest, Paris and New York. Goode immigrated to the United States as a teenager and settled in New York, eventually he played cello in the New York Philharmonic orchestra with Victor Herbert; he also became prominent in the field of dress design.
Goode moved to California in 1922, where he began to focus on landscape paintings, as well as pen and inks of the classic silent screen and early stars of the 1930s and 1940s. Though Goode was known for his landscapes and drawings of the burgeoning stars of early years, he was also known for his portraits and sculptures. President FDR kept a small statuette on his desk created by Goode (soldiers with shovels) called "Faith, Hope and Charity," and sent an acknowledgement to Goode which read "If they haven't got enough shovels, let them lean on each other."
In the early 1940s in Los Angeles, the Second Baptist Church commissioned Goode to paint five religious murals, and Goode painted another 14 at various other churches. These murals are currently archived at the church and available for viewing. Goode also started an art school that was popular in the 1930s-40s, before moving on to become the art director at Los Angeles Pacific College in 1948.
