to be siblings, the boy wearing a black jacket
shown in a paint-decorated chair; the oldest
girl in a black dress with rufed collar and
wearing a thin gold chain around her neck
and a comb and a pink ribbon in her hair; the

and cuffs, wearing a thin gold chain around
her neck and a gray and red ribbon in her
hair; and the youngest in a pink polka-dot
dress with lace collar and cuffs, wearing a
thin black necklace and a comb and ribbon

Constantino Brumidi (Italian/American,

Study for George Washington with

Oil on canvas, dia. 14 x 12 1/4 in., unframed.
Condition: Relined, restretched, varnished.
Provenance: According to a January 1975
Sotheby Parke Bernet catalog (sale 3720),
this painting was previously owned by Mrs.
E. Crane Chadbourne, of New York. It was
offered at auction there as Lot 522.
Literature: Barbara Wolanin, Constantino
Brumidi: Artist of the Capitol (U.S. Government
Printing Ofce, Washington, D.C., 1998), p.
112.
Note: In the late summer of 1852, artist
Constantino Brumidi arrived in New York City
from Italy, an expatriate artist of great skill
and experience. Many of his fresco series in
the classical style adorned public buildings,
baroque-era residences, and churches
throughout Rome, though it was to be his
works in America that would dene his career.
Born in 1805, Brumidi began studying art at a
young age, and continued his education under
such 19th century luminaries (and classically
trained artists) as Antonio Canova and Bertel
Thorwaldsen. As early as 1840, scholar
Barbara Wolanin tells us, Brumidi was doing
public work at the Vatican, restoring 16th
century frescoes in the Vaticans Third Loggia.
Throughout the 1840s, Brumidi worked
steadily, building his resume and receiving
acclaim.
Political winds in Italy shifted in the late
1840s, and a series of unfortunate events
landed Brumidi in jail as a revolutionary. After
some legal maneuverings, his sentence was
commuted in March of 1852, and he left for
the United States as a refugee half a year
later, arriving in New York. There he worked
regularly for two years, as his reputation grew.
Late December of 1854 was the turning
point in his career, Wolanin says, when he
met Captain Montgomery C. Meigs, who
was overseeing the ongoing construction
and decoration at the United States Capitol
building, in Washington, D.C. (Wolanin, p.
49). The Captain, knowing Brumidis talents,
gave the artist an opportunity: to paint a
fresco in what was to become the Agriculture
Committees room, as a trial. Brumidis work
on that fresco was a great success by all
accounts, and as a result Meigs and the
design group at the Capitol employed him
steadily thereafter. Over the next quarter
century, Brumidi would establish and cement
his reputation as the Artist of the Capitol.
Among the many works he created was a
fresco in a lunette on the south wall in what
is now known as the Senate Reception
Room, showing the rst president George
Washington and his top cabinet members,
Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson.
Wolanin writes of and shows Brumidis
sketches and studies for this work, which
was originally intended to be one work in
a series which showed each of the early
presidents. Wolanin reports that the gure of
Hamilton in Brumidis slightly rearranged rst
efforts was instead second president John
Adams. Nevertheless, the Brumidi submitted
an oil sketch for the current scene sometime
after August 1872, which was accepted
and subsequently followed closely when he
executed the fresco. The present lot is very
likely that sketch.

clipping is included with this lot, which tells

the piece was carved from a walnut rail split
by Abraham Lincoln himself. That rail, from
which the cup was carved, was brought to
Chicago in 1860, for the national convention
at which Lincoln was nominated for President.
Lincoln obtained a piece of that rail after the
convention, and had three keepsakes (a
cane, a mallet, and this cup) made for Mr. Ira
Haworth, a delegate at the convention and
friend of Lincoln. Upon his death in 1909, Mr.
Haworth passed the cup to his niece, Mrs.
Pearl Bartle, the owner at the time of the
articles writing.

Landscape with Furnaces, Probably
Charcoal Burners. Unsigned. Oil on canvas,

retouch, craquelure, abrasions.
N.B. The present work may depict charcoal
burning based on the scale of the operation,
its proximity to the forest source, and the
absence of any limestone. The ancient
process of charcoal burning grew on a
large scale during the Industrial Revolution
to accommodate the demand for iron and
steel smelting, which were essential to the
laying of transcontinental lines and other
modern construction. Coal and other fossil
fuels eventually replaced charcoal once easily
harvested wood became scarce.

note that has remained with the piece for
some time reads, The little brown Rum
Jug with a face was found on the Harrison-
Hamilton Plantation, 12 miles to the South of
Fernandina Beach, Florida about 1950. The
Plantation was a Spanish land grant to the
Harrison-Hamilton families during the 1700s
and maintained until 1860 approximately 500
slaves. Charles Engles, of Bushnell, Florida
sets an age of 200 years and states that
without doubt it came to the plantation either
with a slave trader from the Carribbean [sic] or
in the possession of a slave. The present glaze
is the origional [sic]. While the Harrison-
Hamilton family provenance is likely accurate,
recent scholarship puts the year of origin of
this jug somewhere closer to 1870, made in
the tradition of other, slightly earlier jugs known
to have been made by slaves.

Note: Howard Roth: Unique cast
iron andirons which resemble the
single andiron shown on a 1767 Paul
Revere engraved copper plate used
to produce 150 trade cards for iron
merchant Joseph Webb of Boston.
Webb and Revere were friends, fellow
grand masons of the Freemasons and
were both business customers and
providers to each other. Freemasons
were encouraged to extend their
relationships to social and business
matters and they did business with
each other when given the opportunity.
Revere was an iron founder by 1788
and undoubtedly cast andirons but
one can only speculate whether these
andirons were cast from his free hand
engraving or were copies of andirons
that existed in the shop of Joseph
Webb in 1767.
