Emile Albert Gruppé (1896-1978) was an American painter born in Rochester, New York to Helen and Charles P. Gruppe.
He lived the early years of his life in the Netherlands as his father Charles Paul Gruppe, painted with the Hague school of art and acted as a dealer for the Dutch painters in the US.
The family returned permanently to the states around 1913 when rumblings of World War I were brewing.
