- Alphaeus Philemon Cole was an American artist, engraver and etcher. He was the son of noted engraver Timothy Cole. At the time of his death, at age 112 years 136 days, he was the world's oldest verified living recognized man. Alphaeus Cole studied art first under Isaac Craig, in Italy, then in Paris from 1892 to 1901 with Jean Paul Laurens and Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant at the Academie Julian, and later at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. In the mid-1890s, he began to produce many vibrant works, mostly various still lifes and portraits. His painting of Dante was exhibited in the 1900 Paris Salon, and more artwork was displayed at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. Cole moved to England and married sculptress Margaret Ward Walmsley in 1903. He began to venture into the fields of wood/steel engraving and etching, but these works sold predominantly less than his portraits. He contributed several drawings to the Encyclopædia Britannica. They moved again, to the United States, in 1911. In 1918, Cole became a member of the Salmagundi Club, the nation's oldest professional art club. From 1924 to 1931, he taught portrait and still life classes at Cooper Union. He was elected to the National Academy of Design in 1930. He was the president of the New York Water Color Club from 1931 to 1941. In the 1940s, Cole worked as a judge of paintings in Max Pochapin's Manhattan Hall of Art, a merchandising art gallery, which was a revolutionary idea at the time. From 1952 to 1953, he was president of Allied Artists of America. His first wife died in 1961, and Cole married Anita Rio, a singer, and the widow of painter Eugene Higgins, in 1962. She died in 1973. Cole actively painted and exhibited up to the age of 103. He died at New York's Chelsea Hotel, where he had lived for 35 years. Cole's work is in the permanent collections of London's National Portrait Gallery and the Brooklyn Museum, and his papers are stored at the Smithsonian Institution. Although not recognized at the time, Cole is now recognized as the oldest living man for more than a year, between January 5, 1987 to his death, succeeding another notable supercentenarian, 111-year-old Norwegian skier Herman Smith-Johannsen. He was succeeded in title by then 111-year-old John Evans. He is also the first undisputed man ever to reach the age of 112. Prices for Cole's works now reach $5,000 or more. When he died at the age of 112 years 136 days, Cole had staked his claim as being the oldest known artist ever.

- Alphaeus Philemon Cole oli yhdysvaltalainen kuvataiteilija. Hän syntyi New Jerseyssä ja tuli uransa aikana tunnetuksi varsinkin muotokuvillaan. Cole opiskeli Pariisissa. Hänen teoksiaan on nähtävillä julkisesti muun muassa Lontoon National Portrait Galleryssä ja Brooklyn Museumissa. Hänet valittiin National Academy of Designiin vuonna 1930. Colen isä oli kaivertaja Timothy Cole. Hän meni vuonna 1901 naimisiin kuvanveistäjä Margaret Ward Wamsleyn kanssa. Puolison kuoltua vuonna 1961 mies meni uusiin naimisiin laulaja Anita Rio Higginsin kanssa. Colesta tuli 5. tammikuuta 1987 maailman vanhin tunnettu elossa oleva mies; hän saavutti todistettavasti huiman 112 vuoden iän. Yli 110-vuotiaiksi eläneitä henkilöitä, jotka tunnetaan myös muista ansioistaan kuin korkeasta iästään, on äärimmäisen vähän. Muita ovat matemaatikko Leopold Vietoris ja maastohiihtäjä Herman Smith-Johannsen.

Cole ha studiato arte prima sotto Isaac Craig, in Italia, poi a Parigi dal 1892 al 1901 con Jean Paul Laurens e Jean-Joseph-Benjamin Constant all'Academie Julian, in seguito presso l'Ecole des Beaux Arts. A metà degli anni 1890, ha iniziato a produrre molte opere, soprattutto diverse nature morte e ritratti. La sua pittura di Dante è stata esposta nel 1900 al Salon di Parigi. Cole si trasferì in Inghilterra e sposò la scultrice Margaret Ward Walmsley nel 1903. Ha iniziato ad avventurarsi nei campi di legno o di acciaio per le sue incisioni, ma queste opere sono state vendute meno di suoi ritratti. Egli ha contribuito a diversi disegni della Encyclopædia Britannica. Si trasferisce ancora una volta, negli Stati Uniti, nel 1911. Nel 1918, Cole è diventato un membro del Salmagundi Club. Dal 1924 al 1931, ha insegnato alle classi della Cooper Union. Egli è stato eletto alla National Academy of Design nel 1930. È stato Presidente della New York Water Color Club dal 1931 al 1941. Nel 1940, Cole ha lavorato come giudice di dipinti Max Pochapin Manhattan's Hall of Art, una galleria d'arte, che è stata una rivoluzionaria idea all momento. Dal 1952 al 1953, è stato presidente della Allied Artisti d'America. La sua prima moglie morì nel 1961, e si risposò con Anita Rio, una cantante, e la vedova del pittore Eugenio Higgins, nel 1962. Cole morì nel 1973. Cole dipinse fino ai 103 anni. È morto a New York Chelsea Hotel, dove aveva vissuto per 35 anni. I lavori di Cole sono nelle collezioni permanenti della National Portrait Gallery di Londra e al Brooklyn Museum, e i suoi documenti sono depositati presso la Smithsonian Institution. Anche se non riconosciuto, in vita, Cole fu l'uomo vivente più longevo per circa un anno, dal 5 gennaio 1987 fino alla sua morte. I prezzi per le opere di Cole ora raggiungono $ 5.000 o più. Quando morì all'età di 112 anni e 136 giorni, Cole era l'artista più longevo di tutti i tempi.
- Alphaeus Philemon Cole, amerykański artysta malarz, rytownik i akwaforcista, pedagog, znany także z długowieczności. Był synem drzeworytownika Timothy'ego Cole'a. W latach 1893-1901 studiował w Paryżu, w późniejszych latach także we Włoszech. Po powrocie do USA pracował jako pedagog sztuk pięknych, działał w środowisku artystów (m. in. Salmangundi Club w Nowym Jorku), kierował kilkoma klubami i organizacjami plastyków. W latach 1952-1953 był prezydentem Zrzeszenia Artystów Ameryki, otrzymał honorowe członkostwo Narodowego Klubu Sztuki. Od 1930 członek Narodowej Akademii Rysunku. Pracował i wystawiał jeszcze po ukończeniu 100 lat. Tworzył głównie portrety i obrazki obyczajowe. Uprawiał malarstwo akwarelowe, drzeworyt, miedzioryt, akwafortę. Był m. in. twórcą ilustracji do encyklopedii Britannica. Przyjaźnił się ze znanym portrecistą Johnem Singerem Sargentem oraz impresjonistą Williamem Merrittem Chase, krytycznie wypowiadał się o twórczości małżeństwa abstrakcjonistów Jacksona Pollocka i Lee Krasner. Prezentował swoje prace m. in. na Wystawie Panamerykańskiej w Buffalo w 1901; na tej imprezie dokonano udanego zamachu na prezydenta USA McKinleya. Dwukrotnie żenił się z rzeźbiarkami - Margaret Ward Wamsley i Anitą Rio Higgins. Dzięki niezwykłej długowieczności prawdopodobnie należy do niego symboliczny tytuł najstarszego artysty na świecie. Badacze długowieczności z Księgi Guinnessa i amerykańskiego ośrodka Gerontology Research Group przyznają mu także tytuł najstarszego żyjącego mężczyzny od stycznia 1987 (po śmierci kanadyjskiego pioniera narciarstwa pochodzenia norweskiego Hermana Smitha-Johannsena), chociaż nie figurował za życia w Księdze Guinnessa. Po śmierci Cole'a w wieku 112 lat i 136 dni tytuł najstarszego mężczyzny (według tych samych źródeł) przeszedł na Walijczyka Johna Evansa.
