Albert Horatio Slade was born in England. A painter, Slade had a photography studio in Toronto, Canada in 1879 and was a resident of San Diego during 1887-91.  While there, he painted scenes of San Diego Bay and the surrounding area. The few examples of his extant work are from the brush of a highly competent painter.  His watercolors and oils are executed in a realistic style similar to that of the Hudson River painters.
