George F. Schultz, American, 1869 to 1934, oil painting on board depicting a still life with rose flowers. Signed lower right. Circa: early 20th century. Framed. Completed with a printed text about the artist by Wendy Greenhouse, PhD. Born in Chicago on 17 April 1869, George F. Schultz was taught by his father to love art and the beauties of nature. At age fifteen, he was known as a decorator of souvenirs, perhaps decorative paintings on porcelain. Schultz would become a highly respected artist who exhibited over one hundred works at the Art Institute of Chicago annuals, between 1889 and 1925. Landscapes and marines predominated in Schultz's work throughout his career. One of a kind artwork.
