Alfred Richard Gurrey, Sr. (1852–1944) was an English-born landscape painter who moved to the United States at age 20. In 1900, his employer, Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, transferred him from San Francisco to Hawaii. In Hawaii, he worked as an insurance adjuster and was secretary of the Board of Fire Underwriters of the Territory of Hawaii. Although without formal art training, he painted Hawaiian landscapes and opened an art and antiques store in Honolulu.〔Severson, 2002〕 Gurrey was a member of the Kilohana Art League.〔Severson, 2002〕 In 1916, he retired from the Board of Fire Underwriters and moved to Kauai, where he continued to paint. His son, Alfred Richard Gurrey, Jr. (1874-1928) and daughter-in-law, Caroline Haskins Gurrey (1875–1927), were photographers active in Hawaii. In 1996, Alfred Gurrey’s daughter Florence and her husband Carl Bayer donated 30 of Alfred R. Gurrey Sr.’s paintings to the Kauai Museum in Lihue, Hawaii.〔(AskArt.com )〕 His painting ''Moonlight on Ocean (Kauai)'', c. 1918, is in the collection of the Hawaii State Art Museum〔Hawaii State Art Museum, wall label〕 ==References==
