February 2012 Newsletter ... Previously unpublished photos of California Artist Andreas Roth 1872 - 1949 |
In Germany, he honed his artistic talents and trained as a successful landscape artist. He painted still lifes and landscapes, but especially enjoyed creating Alpine scenes in Austria. But in 1932, at age 60, he headed for California making Los Angels his new home. He corresponded with his son remaining in Germany. From these letters, the family says some politics were discussed, but that Andreas emigrated to the U.S. because of artistic opportunities, not for religous or politcal reasons. |
