Biographical History
Frederick Stuart Church (1842-1924), American artist. During the Civil War, he served with Co. A of Chicago Mercantile Independent Battery of Light Artillery.
Painter.
Artist F.S. Church was noted for his depictions of animals and women in sketches, illustrations, and paintings. Born in Grand Rapids, MI in 1842, Church received his early training from a local painter named Hartung. At the age of 13, his parents sent him to work in the American Express Company in Chicago, IL to learn business. Church served for three years as a private in the Union Army during the Civil War, after which he moved to New York to study art with Walter Shirlaw and L.M. Wilmarth. Besides creating commercial illustrations for the Elgin Watch Company, Church also drew for Harper's Weekly. He was active at the National Academy of Design, and was a founding member of the Art Students' League of New York. Church mounted a major exhibit of his own works in New York in 1885.
