Francis Brooks Chadwick (1850–1942/43). American painter active in France.
He was born in Boston and studied at Harvard, and to pursue his
interest in art he attended the Académie Julian in Paris. He was friends
with the painter John Singer Sargent and travelled with him to Haarlem
in 1880. The following year he married the Swedish painter Emma
Löwstädt-Chadwick and they settled in Grez-sur-Loing, where he remained
the rest of his life, though the couple travelled to other summer art
colonies on vacation.
