Frank Hutton Shill (1872-1946)

Frank Hutton Shill studied at the Pennsylvania Academy from 1885 to 1904 under Thomas Anshutz and William Merritt Chase. He won two travelling scholarships and, inspired by his fellow alumni Elmer Schofield, settled in St Ives for prolonged periods between 1905 and 1910. He set up a painting school in Haselton, just outside the colony.
