In 1957, John and Mary Gould established the Bethlehem Art Gallery in Cornwall, NY. John was born in Worcester, MA, studied art and graduated from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, and later instructed at Pratt for 22 years. He was a prominent illustrator for the Saturday Evening Post for more than 8 years and for many national corporations.
In the world of fine arts, John Gould was a successful painter. His oil, acrylics, watercolors, and pen and ink originals are in many private collections. For subject matter, he was partial to historical subjects, especially in the Hudson River Valley from the Statue of Liberty to Albany, NY.
