Buried on March 18, 1912. (Death Certificate Photocopy)
Occupation on above: Artist
He died at his home: 255 East Main Street
Very famous painter of marine & coastal scenes. He also was known for landscapes.
Dean attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's School of Architecture in 1873 but left MIT to attend the Massachusetts State Normal Art School, now known as Mass College of Art & Design. After earning $2,500 from the sale of his paintings in 1882, Dean traveled to France, where he first spent seven months on the French coast, sketching the local people and boats in Brittany. He then went on to Paris to study at the Académie Julian with Jules-Joseph Lefebvre and Gustave Boulanger. These were two of the most influential art instructors in the world at that time. It is apparent that Dean enjoyed Europe, where he traveled primarily along the coastlines of France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, and England. In England, he rented an old chapel as a studio in the village of Cornwall and finished a number of commissions for "Manchester gentleman" of Mediterranean scenes.
Some of his paintings can be seen in Lowell's Whistler House Museum of Art. Read more about Dean in LC's Fall 2022 newsletter, "The Epitaph."
