Fries was raised in Cincinnati and traveled to Europe and New York before settling in San Diego. An avid bicyclist with a Van Dyke beard and flowing black tie, he was a memorable sight with his painting gear in his basket. His journal records seventeen hundred California oil paintings, many of them with eucalyptus trees, and he was highly successful there also as a lithographer.
