925Peale is likely writing to John Durand 1822-1908 painter and son of artist Asher B. Durand. John Durand co-founded a cultural and art periodical called "The Crayon" published from Jan 3 1855 to July 1861. Peale writes "After you left me this morning it occurred to me that possibly in your next number you would give a few words on the Exhibition here - In this case you might say that it contained nothing from my pencil & that I preferred to send a portrait my last work in my 80th Year to the New York Academy. which I have done - That of a Young Man." Nicely signed "Rembrandt Peale." The painting's title refers to his "Portrait of a Young Man." Peale had settled in Philadelphia by the time he wrote this letter and that city is likely the place to which he refers regarding the Exhibition. Earlier in the year of our letter 1857 Peale made prints that he called "Monochrome of Washington." <br/><br/>When he lectured at the New York Historical Society on June 16 he displayed Washington portraits including a Monochrome decorated with cord and tassel. see journals at Penn State Univ. on line Peale painted his first portrait at the age of 17 of President George Washington in 1795. Over the course of his long and prolific career as portrait painter Peale would paint over 70 pictures of Washington portraits of President Thomas Jefferson as well as Chief Justice John Marshall. In addition to painting the Founding Fathers Peale created many portraits including the one referenced in our letter. Letters of Peale mentioning one of his works are particularly uncommon. Matted with bust length albumen print of the artist attached to a mat possibly not the original mat. Corners of the print are somewhat damaged image is somewhat faded. The portrait print of the artist matches the tone of Peale's letter and creates a handsome pairing. unknown books

1859WRCAM45229New York: Colton 1859. Chromolithographic print: 20 x 30 inches. Receipt: 3 x 7 1/2 inches. Minor toning and soiling small tear at bottom edge. Very good. Large print of Rembrandt Peale's famous painting "The Court of Death" lithographed by Sarony Major & Knapp. Rembrandt Peale was the most accomplished son of the great American portrait painter Charles Willson Peale. The painting "The Court of Death" was the most ambitious of his works full 24 by 13 feet in size. Completed in 1820 it was displayed for a number of years at the Baltimore Peale Museum and then toured to other cities up through the time of the Civil War. <br> <br> By 1859 the painting had been sold to Gardiner Quincy Colton who published it in the present format and sold the prints for the low price of $1. Noted scholar Peter C. Marzio wrote: "Peale himself normally haughty and querulous provided a model of understated endorsement of the lithograph writing shortly before his death to Tristram Coffin on July 3 1860 'The drawing is correct and the Colouring considering the difficulty of the process & its cheapness gives a good general idea of the painting.'" Marzio further adds that this lithograph is among his favorites due to its importance in Peale's brilliant career not only as an artist but as a popularizer of art noting: "The painting is historically important as a very popular touring picture." <br> <br> This example is accompanied by a printed and illustrated receipt for the purchase of one print. The receipt "entitles the holder to an ownership of One Share in the original Painting valued at $25000; which will be disposed of as soon as 100000 Engravings are taken in such manner as they the associated owners shall determine." The receipt has a portrait of Peale on one end and of George Washington on the other. In a contemporary prospectus for the print the publisher touts the obvious truth that more profit could be made by selling 100000 prints at the low price of $1 than could be achieved by selling 5000 prints at $5. In addition to increasing his profit margins Colton clearly hoped to sell more prints based on the idea of buying into a share of the painting. <br> <br> A pair of items illustrating the distinct link between art and commerce.
