Frohawk se narodil jako nejmladší dítě do rodiny farmáře v části Norfolku, . K jeho zájmu o malování a přírodní dějiny jej vedla matka, v sedmi letech odchytil jedince vzácného (Colias hyale). Rodina se přestěhovala do Great Yarmouth a později do Ipswiche, kde Frohawk objevil řadu zajímavých motýlů. Po smrti otce (1873) se rodina stěhovala do Croydonu a později do jižního , kde Frohawk absolvoval . Během této doby prodělal tyfus, který ho připravil o zrak v jednom oku. Roku 1880 se rodina opět stěhovala (do horního Norwoodu), kde se Frohawk soustředil na ilustrace živočichů. V jeho práci jej podporoval Lionel Walter Rothschild, který od něj později odkoupil vodomalby motýlů. Roku 1891 se Frohawk stal členem . V roce 1927 donutily finanční potíže Frohawka prodat své sbírky motýlů Rothschildovi (ty jsou dnes vystaveny ve sbírkách Přírodopisného muzea v Londýně).

  • Frederick William Frohawk (16 July 1861 – 10 December 1946) was an English zoological artist and lepidopterist. Frohawk was the author of Natural History of British Butterflies (1914), The Complete Book of British Butterflies (1934) and Varieties of British Butterflies (1938). Frohawk was born at Brisley Hall, East Dereham, Norfolk, the son of a yeoman farmer Francis Frohawk and his wife, Lydia Drage. The youngest child in his family, his interest in drawing and natural history was nurtured by his mother. At seven he spotted and caught a rare pale clouded yellow butterfly. The family moved to Great Yarmouth and later Ipswich where he found many interesting butterflies. After the death of his father around 1873, the family moved to Croydon and later South Norwood. He went to school at Norwood College and during this time contracted typhoid leading to near blindness in one eye. In 1880 the family moved to Upper Norwood and here Frohawk concentrated on illustration and obtained his first commission for illustrating The Field. Frohawk was encouraged in his work by Lord Walter Rothschild, who later bought his water-colours of butterflies. His major butterfly works include the two volume Natural History of British Butterflies (1924) and The Complete Book of British Butterflies (1934). In 1927, a need for money forced him to sell his butterfly collection to Lord Rothschild for £1000. These are now part of the Rothschild collection in the Natural History Museum at London. He also illustrated numerous bird books, including Aves Hawaiienses: The Birds of the Sandwich Islands; and Birds of the British Isles and their Eggs with A G Butler, published around 1898. He married Margaret Grant in June 1895 and spent the honeymoon in the New Forest. Margaret died on 16 February 1909 leaving him to care for two daughters. In 1911 he married Mabel Jane Bowman on 4 October at St James, Westminster and they had a third daughter Valezina, named after a form of the silver-washed fritillary. He was elected Fellow of the Royal Entomological Society in 1891 and made a Special Life Fellow in 1926. He died on 10 December 1946 and was buried at Headley, Surrey. His sister Lydia was married to the equine artist Lynwood Palmer. In 1996, his daughter Valezina inaugurated a commemorative sign marking the "Frohawk Ride" in the New Forest. (en)
  • Frederick William Frohawk (16 luglio 1861 – 10 dicembre 1946) è stato uno zoologo e lepidotterista inglese. Ultimogenito di un proprietario terriero, nacque a Brisley Hall, East Dereham, nel Norfolk. Maturò un interesse per il disegno e la storia naturale dalla madre. All'età di sette anni trovò e riuscì a catturare una rara farfalla, la Colias hyale. La famiglia si trasferì a Great Yarmouth e successivamente a Ipswich, dove il piccolo Frohawk trovò molte specie interessanti. Dopo la morte del padre, nel 1873, la famiglia si trasferì a Croydon e in seguito a South Norwood. Frohawk studiò presso il Norwood College e durante questo periodo di tempo contrasse una febbre tifoide che lo rese quasi cieco da un occhio. Nel 1880 la famiglia si trasferì un'altra volta, andando ad Upper Norwood, e qua Frohawk si dedicò al disegno, ottenendo anche la sua prima commissione come illustratore del Field. Frohawk fu sostenuto nel suo lavoro da Walter Rothschild, che in seguito acquistò una serie di suoi acquerelli raffiguranti farfalle. Tra le sue opere più importanti ricordiamo Natural History of British Butterflies (1924) e The Complete Book of British Butterflies (1934). Nel 1927 le necessità economiche lo spinsero a vendere la sua collezione di farfalle a Lord Rothschild per 1000 sterline. Attualmente essa è custodita nella collezione Rothschild al Natural History Museum di Londra. Frohawk illustrò anche numerosi libri sugli uccelli, come Aves Hawaiienses: The Birds of the Sandwich Islands, e Birds of the British Isles and their Eggs, scritto assieme ad Arthur Gardiner Butler e pubblicato nel 1898. Nel giugno del 1895 Frohawk sposò Margaret Grant; essa dette lui due figlie, ma morì nel 1907. Nel 1909 si risposò con Mabel Jane Hart Bowman, che le diede una terza figlia, alla quale Frohawk diede il nome di Valezina, come una sottospecie della farfalla Argynnis paphia. Morì il 10 dicembre 1946 e fu seppellito nel cimitero di Headley, nel Surrey. (it)
