Arthur Beaumont (1890-1978)
Arthur Edwin Crabbe was born in Norfolk County, England. He emigrated to the United States and studied art at the University of California's Mark Hopkins School of Art. In 1915, he changed his name to Arthur Beaumont and moved to Lost Angeles. Two years later he opened his first commercial art studio. He continued his studies at Choinard Art Institute and the Slade School of Fine Art in London. Following his time in London, he then studied at both the Academie Julian and the Academie Colarossi in Paris.
During the Great Depression, Beaumont taught watercolor classes at Long Beach harbor. In 1933 he was given a commission as a Lieutenant in the Navy, with orders to join the fleet on the major endeavors at sea. Some of these included traveling through the Panama Canal and meeting President Roosevelt in New York Harbor.
When World War II started, Beaumont's paintings focused more on military activities, ship paintings, and battle scenes. His paintings of the war were seen in War Bond campaigns, and across the front pages of newspapers. Beaumont's work didn't end with the war. He continued sketching and painting on-board scenes on the USS lowa, the USS Los Angeles, and the USS Midway. In July of 1946, he was designated as the Navy's Official Task Force Artist for Operation Crossroads, the atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll.
Beaumont continued painting, pausing during the Korean War due to several injuries to his painting hand. He continued to travel with the Navy, including heading the Artic, Antarctica, and Vietnam.

The sign instructs people that after the nuclear explosion's flash and crash, the radioactive danger has passed. Good thing these signs have never needed to be used...
Eighty years after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the survivors called Hibakusha and children at the time of the explosion still can tell with vivid detail what happened and the aftermath of the nuclear destruction. They tell about their firsthand experience in the documentary Atomic People.
A warming from Sueichi Kido, a survivor of the Nagasaki atomic bombing and secretary-general of Nihon Hidankyo, during his powerful address to the second meeting of States Parties to the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons in November 2023.
“The danger of nuclear war is growing. The scenes reported from Ukraine and Gaza are a replay of that day for the hibakusha. If there is a nuclear war, there will be nothing left but black cities, piles of corpses and a world of death.”
