Herbert Jacob Gute (1907 in Jeffersonville, New York – 1977 in Yale House Services Hospital)[1] was an American watercolorist.
[3]Herbert Gute, just graduated from the Yale School of Fine Arts, had been carefully chosen as a competent painter interested in making renderings.
How far interest and competence as an artist can carry a new recruit in the type of technical drawing required on a dig is always a vital question.
Herb turned out to be a painter of unusual ability; perhaps his German ancestry gave him his flair for meticulous detail.
[3]Gute taught at the Yale School of Fine Arts from 1938 until his retirement in 1973,[1][2] and a fellow at Calhoun College, 1955–1973.
