to get the truth by cold imitation, but
he had net the ability to reproduce the
all important TRUTH the singular indi-
viduality of Washington in his best es
tate.
There was another portrait of Wash
ington painted by this Quaker artist.
1t was ordered by Washington for an
enthusiastic admirer, an old German
marshal, COmte de SOlms. That portrait
is now in the fortress of Konigstein.
There is still another portrait, pro-
file, by Wright In 1861 it was discov-
cred by Mrs. David Nichols in an old
closet in Salem street, Boston, careful
ly wrapped. with the signature of her
father on the wrapper. This picture
was extensively published about the
year 1862. but is not regarded with

Stuart. He may be justly ranked as a
coloriSt with the most distinguished
painters Of ancient times, and his por-
traits are superior in colors to the best
of our modern painters. 1t is not
known now how many portraits Of
Washington Stuart really did paint.
There are sixty-one Washington por-
traits for which there is good authority
for saying. These are by Stuart" The
number copied by other artists and
claimed by their owners to be originals
Is very great, probably several hun
dred. Time only will determine the
originals. Stuart's palette was very
simple one. and age will reveal the
Stuarts. Those painted by other paint
ers will change more or less.
The names Of those who own the
Origina. heads by Stuart are well known
and will be found in Miss Johnston's

note of the various artists who made
or claimed to have painted portraits
and made sketches of Washington. The
names of few may be mentioned:

WASHINGTON, BY JAMES sHARPLEss.
ert Fulton, New York; Jacques Due
Barbiere Welboune, France; William
Dunlap, New Jersey; William Bisch;
Walter Robertson, Ireland; Robert
Field, England. But few of these ever
came to the notice of the public. Still
most of them were painted during the
life Of Washington, but not from sit
tings.
Rembrandt Peale, one Of the great
artists who painted Washington from
life, was born on the 22d of February,
when Washington's army was suffering
in the cheerless camp at Valley Forge
and while his father was in the Revo-
lutiOnary army. He became favorite
and q companion of Washington. He
was a great painter, lecturer and writ
er and an accomplished gentleman.
Ponnhranaf pnnIo. his father Charles
Wilson Peale; his uncle, James Peale,
and his elder brother, Raphael Pealc,
were favored Jointly by Washington
with three sittings at Philadelphia in
1875. Raphael Peale made a profile
from these sittings which came into the
possession of III. II. Huston of Phila-
delpha, now deceased. The original
that Rembrandt painted at that time,
it is claimed, was sold to n gentleman
in South Carolina. This original is now

claimed that it has been brought back
to this country by some party as yet
unknown.
Charles Wilson Peale lived to be 4
very old man. and there is no question
that he pasted Washington from life
many times AID had more sittings than
all other artists. and. Furthermore. he
made and sold a greater number of
copies Of his portraits than all the art

Washington gave the elder Peale was
in Philadelphia in 1195. James Peale,
brother ard Rembrandt Peale. the

country and finally found it's way to
the Smithsonian institution. Charles
Wilson Peale's son claimed it, and it is
now in Corcoran gallery. Washington.
A reproduction OF the picture was sold
in 1876, when the Peale museum. in
Baltimore, was disposed of at auction.
1t was bought by Mr.. II. p. Mexican
and is still. believed to be owned by
him. There are in existence several
full length portraits painted by Charles
Wilson Peale, evidently from life. One
full length portrait is now owned by
the Earl Of Albemarle and is in the
Keppeler family of Norfolk, England.
Among the great number of portraits
painted by Pcale from life one is now
in Nassau hall, at Princeton, n J., one
was ordered by the state of Maryland
to be placed III the hall of delegates at
Annapolis, ard another is in the gallery
of Joseph Harrison, Philadelphia.
1t is well known that Governor Har-
rison. the great-grandfather of our
late president. Benjamin Harrison, Or
dered Charles Wilson Peale to paint a
full length portrait of Washington in
the year I1S2 TO be sent to France to
assist NJ. Houdon after he got the
order from the state of Virginia to
execute a marble statue of Washing
ton. There is no account given any
where that would lead to the cOnclu-
sion that NJ. Houdon used the portrait
as material in carving the Richmond
statue. HoudOn came to this country
and got all the material he desired
from the person of Washington. What
became of this picture that was sent

and an accomplished artist. He came
to America in 1894 He had been well
known in Stockholm and Paris, and
he moved in the highest and most
artistic circles in Europe His artistic
representation of Washington has re-
ceived great credit and has been en-
Enthusiastically praised by those who
knew Washington In comparison with
the portraits of wright and Pine it
will always be preferred as splendid
rendering of Washington in his most
agreeable mood. The drawing and
modelling of the head are superb. Ev-
cry part is most carefully painted and
is certainly a lofty ideal Of the man.
The lifelike dignity and splendid pres
ence are Enthusiastically presented. The
artist took the picture to Europe and
gave it to Mr.. Cazenove of Switzer-
land. 1t was afterward purchas sed
from the descendant of Mr.. CaZenove
and brought to America.
Wertmuller painted several other por-
traits of Washington, mostly cabinet
size one of which is owned by the wild

by Cc,clcl Trumbuil how in the city
hall, New York city. was ordered by
the municipal authorities, headed by
the celebrated Richard Varick, then
mayor.
Tie mayor and city council of
Charleston, S. c., in 1Io1 gave Trum-
bull commission to paint Washington,
Tie artist chose to represent the gen
erai in full length as he appeared on
the battlefield Of Trenton. When the
picture was finished, it received the un-
qualified approval Of Washington, and
some critics even declared that it was
superior to the statue of Houdon, but
this opinion was rather premature, for
the Hcudon was not erected in Rich
m0nd until 1876 so that the comparison
was LH~'iv possible. If the same crit
les could compare them today, the pref
crcEce would he for HOudon. Trum-
bull painted cabinet portraits of Wash
ington and Mrs. Washington which
were sold to the government and are
now in the patent office. In 1890 Colo

net portraits of Washington for the
