American Painter, 1861-1912,was a painter of Western subject matter in the days of the disappearing frontier. Schreyvogel was especially interested in military life. He spent most of his life as an impoverished artist. He suddenly became recognized and earned what seemed like overnight fame. He was born in New York City. He also spent much of his childhood in Hoboken, New Jersey. He grew up in a poor family of German immigrant shopkeepers on the Lower East Side of New York. Schreyvogel was unable to afford art classes and he taught himself to draw. In 1901, he was awarded the Thomas Clarke Prize at the annual exhibition of the National Academy of Design. Schreyvogel did much of his work in his studio (or its rooftop) in decidedly non-Western Hoboken.   Related Paintings of Charles Schreyvogel :. | Details of Madonna and Child with Angels,St Frediano and St Augustine | The Meeting of General Kleke von Klegenau and Imam Shamil in 1837 by Gagarin | Louise Henriette de Bourbon-Conti, Countess-Duchess of Orleans, as Hebe | Afternoon Wind | The Water Urn |
