A GREAT NATIONAL WORK.
THE GALLERY OF ILLUSTRIOUs
AMERICANS
by Engraved by
D'Avignon

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN
Under this title will be published, during the
- year 1850, twenty-iour Portraits and Bioeraphi-
cal Sketches oil American citizens no have become
illustrious in the service of the country Every por
ton OF the work will receive the careful atien
tion and nothing viii be spared to render worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men Of he Re
public.
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, collecting Portraits Tor a National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed to be superior 10 any that have
ever been taken. In the accomplishments OF this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men Mr. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recommendation. His dagueueotypes are in the
highest sense the works OF art glowing with the soul
Of the living countenance.
The drawings and engravings OF D'Avgnon have
been pronounced by Europeans OF taste TO be fully
equal and in respects superior to those of the
best artists Of London and Paris and every inn
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his i'm
mediate supervision The typography will be exc
cuted as carefully and in superb style the
cravings themselves. The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper, 6 by % iaches, rade
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope il
viii therefore be comprehensive in its spirit. The
names OF those men only admitted whose talents
and public services have won for them an honorable
fame throughout the nation Each of the great de.
partnents of life will have its representatives. Art
and Literature universal in their spirit, and the
Gallery is intended 10 be worthy and enduring mon
ument to the great men of the Republic whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory OF
the nation. We hope that every lover of Art, and
friend of glorious Mon, viii respond to our APP
peal for encouragement and aid in commendable an
undertaking, thai is publication may make an era in
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
iustrious men OF the Union together, consolidate il
still more firmly.
As no work of this kind has appeared in America
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place il
beyond the reach OF most OF citizens the publish
ers have resolved to merit large circulation by
charging very low price. They have, therefore
established the following
