About this listen
Today we are joined by John Schoonover and Louise Smith, Grandchildren to Frank E. Schoonover: painter, illustrator, and photographer, whose artwork can now be viewed in SAMFA’s Gallery 1. Our exhibition: N.C Wyeth and the Golden Age of American Illustration will be on display until March 31st, 2024. We are featuring works from Frank Schoonover, right alongside the work of N.C. Wyeth and teacher Howard Pyle, whom Schoonover and Wyeth studied with.
Frank E. Schoonover produced thousands of paintings throughout his long career, many as illustrations for written works that ran the gamut from science fiction to magazine articles. He also was a teacher, a designer, and a landscape painter, and helped organize what is now the Delaware Art Museum.
