Frank Schafer
An artist named Frank Schafer, said to be contemporary, has painted at least one portrait with a western U.S. motif. For reference, at the left is an image of the portrait, and to the right is a detail showing the signature inscription. Nothing else has been learned about this artist.The Art in Embassies Program of the United States State Department has misidentified a Frederick F. Schafer painting, at one time located at the U.S. Embassy in Madrid but later sold, with an artist named Frank Schafer, giving dates of 1896-1946. It is not known whether that is this same artist.
