FREDERICK WILLIAM KOST, N.A. (May 15, 1861 - February 23, 1923)
Landscape painter. Born in New York City, Frederick William Kost (a common error is the listing of his middle name as "Weller" - though some sources cite it was "Weller," in fact there are several known examples of his paintings signed "Frederick William Kost," which indicates his middle name was, indeed, "William") was the son of German immigrants Catherine (b. 1826) and Joseph Kost (b. 1826). Joseph was a hotel keeper with enough wealth to employee three household servants in the early 1870's.
