Paintings
Frederic specialized in portraits, although he had done some landscapes, such as "Street in Toledo" and "River View, Spring". His paintings have been described as impressionistic.[4] Some critiques have gone as far as to say his work was, more specifically, pre-1940's impressionism. His work was also highly influenced by his European travels, and his studies under many important artists of the time.[5] It is associated with the Boston School of painting.[6]
European travels
Frederic spent much of his time traveling the European continent, and it has influenced his work and differentiated it from the American work of the same time, with one reviewer even calling him "an aristocrat of the old school."[5][7] In 1875, he traveled to Paris and studied under Léon Bonnat for a season. In 1876, he spent a year in Munich in which he spent his time learning under the teachings of Frank Duveneck and the Royal Academy of Munich.Шаблон:Sfn Later, he returned to Paris for two years, citing his dislike of the German method of impressionism,[1] which included artists such as Lovis Corinth or Max Liebermann. While back in France, joined the Acadèmie Julian and was taught under Jean-Paul Laurens.[1] In 1882 he traveled to Spain with Robert Blum and William Merritt Chase.[5] The three artists spent time in Madrid and Toledo, and Frederic studied portraiture by studying Velázquez's previous work.[5]
Death
Vinton died of a bronchial affection in his home in Boston on May 20, 1911.[8][9] After his death, Mrs. Frederic Porter Vinton released some of his paintings to assorted exhibits.[10]
