 As described by Sarah Seamark, senior editor of "Art World News" in an article on Bob Pejman that was published in the November 2004 issue, "Inspiration for his style, that likens to romantic realism, comes from the Hudson River School, the classic landscapes of Thomas Cole and Frederic Church, the utopias of Maxfield Parrish, and above all, from the Victorian artist Lawrence Alma-Tadema, known for his theatrical paintings of Roman ruins.While the influence of these masters is evident in Pejman's works, it is through his unique arrangement and depiction of the subject matters that he achieves a distinctive style.It is the effect of beauty and solitude together that creates this romantic mood that Pejman wishes to offer collectors of his work."
