Autorenporträt
Frank N. Wilcox (1887-1964) was an instructor at the Cleveland Institute of Art and was a central figure in the "Cleveland School" of artists. Best known for his watercolors of the rural America of his boyhood, his works are represented in leading museums and collections across the country. His love of the outdoors led him into explorations of Ohio's past and much of his work reflects that interest and research.
