[edit] Summary

Stephen William Shaw (1817-1900) was born in Windsor, Vermont. At thirty-one he journeyed to California by way of New Orleans and Panama to settle in San Francisco and pursue a career as a portrait painter. He became the official artist to the Masonic order there, painting a large number of Masons and other Western notables. He also participated in the expedition that discovered Humboldt (now Kayo) Bay in New Guinea. He painted Maj. Gen. John McA. Schofield from life in 1874. The Schofield portrait, commissioned as one of the series on departmental secretaries, is reproduced from the Army Art Collection.
