Conrad Wise Chapman (February 14, 1842 – December 10, 1910) was an American painter who served in the Confederate States Army from 1861 to 1865.

He was wounded in Shiloh along with seeing action in Mississippi and Louisiana, before a transfer to the 46th Virginia Infantry at the request of his father to Henry Alexander Wise.

This was part of a campaign by Beauregard to increase support for his ideas about the defense of the harbor in the Confederate government.

[2] He intended to paint the entire series in Charleston, but having received word of his mother's illness, Chapman was granted furlough in April 1864 and left for Rome, Italy to visit his family.

In 1898, his entire collection of paintings went on view at the Union League Club in New York, where they attracted attention, but no buyers.
