Fernand Harvey Lungren Biography

(b Hagerstown, MD, 13 Nov 1857; d Santa Barbara, CA, 9 Nov 1932). American painter and illustrator. Of Swedish descent, the family moved to Toledo, OH, when Lungren was four years old. He showed an early talent for drawing but was intended by his father for a professional career and in 1874 entered the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, to study mining engineering. He left in 1876, however, determined to become an artist. After a protracted dispute with his father, he was allowed briefly to attend the Pennsylvania Academy in Philadelphia, where he studied under Thomas Eakins and had Robert Frederick Blum, Alfred Laurens Brennan (1853–1921) and Joseph Pennell as fellow students. In the winter of 1877 he moved to New York, where he worked as an illustrator for Scribner’s Monthly (renamed Century in 1881) during the period known as ‘the Golden Age of American illustration’. His first illustration appeared in 1879 and he continued to contribute to the magazine until 1903. He was also an illustrator for the children’s magazine St Nicholas from 1879 to 1904 and later for Harper’s Bazaar , McClure’s and The Outlook . For all these periodicals he produced landscapes, portraits and social scenes to illustrate articles and stories, being noted for his New York street scenes.
