1826-1900 American painter. He was a leading representative of the second generation of the HUDSON RIVER SCHOOL, who made an important contribution to American landscape painting in the 1850s and 1860s. The son of a wealthy and prominent businessman, he studied briefly in Hartford with two local artists, Alexander Hamilton Emmons (1816-84) and Benjamin Hutchins Coe (1799-1883). Thanks to the influence of the Hartford patron DANIEL WADSWORTH, in 1844 he became the first pupil accepted by Thomas Cole.   Related Paintings of Frederic E.Church :. | Hooker and Company Journeying through the Wilderness in 1636 from Plymouth to Harford | Beacon,off Mount Desert Island | Mount Katahdin from Millinocket Camp | Isabel Carnes Church | Coast Scene,Mount Desert |
