PREFATORY NOTE 
 
 WE have been very much aided in what we may have been able to 
 accomplish in the following biographical chapters, by the readi- 
 ness to put at our disposal letters and papers remaining in the 
 possession of members of the Sully family. Especially has this been so 
 with Mrs. Albert Sully, the widow of Dr. Albert Sully (grandson of 
 Thomas Sully) and now a resident of Brooklyn (N. Y.). 
 
 Miss Julia Sully of Richmond (Va.), a great-niece of the artist, has 
 also shown much interest. 
 
 The descendants of Thomas Sully's step-daughter, Mary Chester 
 Sully, who married John Neagle the distinguished portrait painter, have 
 been very ready to assist us. They are residents of Philadelphia and 
 possess some very charming family portraits from Sully's brush. In their 
 parlor hangs the large painting by the Artist of his wife, with the pet dog 
 of the family " Ponto " at her side. 
 
 To Dr. I. Minis Hays of the American Philosophical Society we are 
 indebted not merely for official aid, but for very cordial support and valu- 
 able suggestions. 
 
 The Pennsylvania Historical Society through its executive staff has 
 afforded us every facility during the progress of the work. 
 
 The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in the same way has 
 been most ready to aid and forward our wishes. 
 
 To all of these we make our sincere acknowledgments.

THOMAS SULLY 
 
 CHAPTER I 
 
 Birth and parentage — Removes to Charleston, S. C, with parents — 
 Enters broker's office — Soon abandons it — Becomes a pupil of 
 M. Belzons — Parts from him — Goes to Richmond, Va. — Death of 
 his brother Lawrence — Sully assumes fresh responsibilities — 
 Paints his first miniature. 
 
 AT the mention of Thomas Sully's name the average reader will be 
 apt to conjure up a mature if not an aged artist. No doubt 
 the more familiar likenesses of Mr. Sully have helped to foster 
 this impression. The portrait picturing him at the age of 73 is the famil- 
 iar likeness, and the one he painted of himself when scarcely in middle life 
 is rarely noted. But there was a young and vigorous Sully, full of buoy- 
 ant determination and high ambitions ; and in this biographical Memoir 
 we shall attempt to bring him before our readers in a rejuvenated form. 
 
 The period of life lending itself best to special description is from 
 the entrance of our embryo artist into the practice of his art, when about 
 16 or 17 years old, and for forty (40) years thereafter. This embraces 
 Sully's two visits to Europe, that is, to England ; for whatever advantages 
 he might have gained from wider foreign study and observation, they 
 were denied him. But young Sully made such good use of his oppor- 
 tunities at his very first English visit, that it is doubtful whether further 
 travel would have contributed anything to his after-success as a portrait 
 painter. He had the advantage of coming immediately under the direc- 
 tion and influence of Benjamin West, the " American patriarch of paint- 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 ing," who advised him to "study portraiture in England, above all 
 schools." 
 
 West exhibited great interest in Sully, and writing to a friend in 
 Philadelphia under date of Nov. 3rd, 1809, he expresses himself as 
 follows : 
 
 " Philadelphia I cannot name without being interested in all that has 
 a connection with that city ; this, my good Sir, alludes to a young gentle- 
 man now studying painting under my direction as a Professor of that Art, 
 whose talents only want time to mature them to excellence, and I am ap- 
 prehensive that his means of support are too slender to admit his stay at 
 this seat of Arts that length of time to effect what I could wish, as I 
 understand it is doubtful whether it cannot be longer than the beginning 
 of next summer. . . . The young gentleman I allude to is Mr. Sully. I 
 find him every way worthy and promising. I could not refrain from thus 
 giving you my sentiments, when the success of Mr. Sully in his profes- 
 sion as a painter is so much to be desired." 
 
 We shall return to this highly significant period in Sully's career, but 
 must needs turn back to an earlier date in order to give the events of 
 his life in chronological order. 
 
 Our artist was of English parentage, the son of Matthew and Sarah 
 Chester Sully, who were actors. They came to this country from Eng- 
 land in 1792, bringing their family with them, and settling at Charleston, 
 S. C. It was a numerous family, consisting as it did of four sons and 
 five daughters. Thus in the order of their births, we name the sons, 
 Lawrence, Matthew, Chester, and Thomas ; and the daughters, Harriet 
 (married Prof Porcher of S. C), Elizabeth (m. Middleton Smith of 
 Charleston, S. C), Jane (m. J. B. LeRoy), Mary, and Sarah, Of the two 
 latter, one married Mons. Belzons, a French refugee living at Charleston. 
 Thomas, the subject of our memoir, was about 9 years of age when he 
 reached this country, his birth having occurred in the month of June, 
 1783, at Horncastle, in Lincolnshire, England.* 
 
 * Mrs. Ravenel, in her book on Charleston, mistakenly names Sully as a Carolinian. 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Matthew Sully, the father, was brother-in-law to a Mr. West, then 
 managing theatres in the south. Charleston was about to open a new 
 theatre, and it was doubtless in view of that event that the SuUys were 
 drawn to the southern town. 
 
 Charlestown, as it had always been called down to 1783, had now 
 blossomed forth as the City of Charleston. Its growth was becoming 
 marked, a number of causes contributing towards it. A Huguenot set- 
 tlement had been early formed there, and so a French foundation ex- 
 isted which attracted later settlers of that nationality. At this particular 
 juncture the dreadful upheaval at St. Domingo (1792) brought numerous 
 French refugees, escaping the horrors of their devastated island homes. 
 Being kindly received and welcomed by the Charleston people, they 
 were afforded opportunities of earning livelihoods. They brought an 
 atmosphere of gaiety and gallic vivacity to the life of the city, soon to be 
 reflected in the diversions and amusements of the place. Music and 
 dancing were made accessible, through the knowledge and teaching of 
 the newcomers. 
 
 The new theatre evidently introduced a fresh and welcome diversion 
 as may be gathered from the following quotation : " The opening of the 
 theatre in January, 1 793, was quite an event in the history of Charleston. 
 Theatricals had been so long discontinued here that the rising generation 
 were strangers to the fascination of the stage ; and I can never forget the 
 delight which this new amusement produced in all classes of our com- 
 munity. The box office was thronged of a morning ; and in the evening 
 of representation, the doors of the theatre were besieged by crowds long 
 before the hour of opening them. The stage was the general subject of 
 conversation ; and so enchanting was its influence that the ladies were 
 heard to say that they could live in the theatre!" So writes Fraser in 
 his " Reminiscences of Charleston." 
 
 For theatrical people this promised well, but there was another 
 branch of art for which our youthful Sully thirsted that had as yet but 
 few votaries. No doubt young Thomas' parents, when placing him in 
 
 3 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 business with an insurance broker, were influenced by prudential motives, 
 and swayed doubtless by a feeling that artists are apt to have, that any 
 occupation but their own is best for their offspring. The boy Sully was 
 about 1 2 years of age when the parents decided on this step. An amus- 
 ing anecdote has come down that the broker in question soon complained 
 that although his youthful assistant was "very industrious in multiplying 
 figures, they were figures of men and women, and that if the broker took 
 up a piece of paper in the office he was sure to see a face staring at 
 him!" In short, that "Tom spoiled all the paper that fell in his way, or 
 that he could lay his hands on." The broker ended by advising Tom's 
 father that "the boy should be made 2^ painter." 
 
 Young Sully's artistic tastes had been kindled while at school. 
 Charles Fraser, afterwards well known as a miniature painter, and some- 
 what older than our youthful artist, attended the same establishment and 
 although then a mere beginner, Sully afterwards said "he was the first 
 person that ever took the pains to instruct me in the rudiments of the art, 
 and although himself a mere tyro, his kindness, and the progress made 
 in consequence of it, determined the course of my future life." 
 
 Another influence also, was the fact that his own elder brother, 
 Lawrence, was a miniature and device painter. The latter never attained 
 any wide celebrity, but to the younger brother, with his inborn tastes, one 
 so near and familiar to him engaged in such a pursuit must have proved 
 a constant spur. 
 
 When young Sully parted from his insurance patron, it was at last 
 determined to put him in the way of becoming a painter. Shortly before 
 the period we are dealing with, a Mr. Belzons, a Frenchman, had married 
 one of young Sully's sisters. Mr. Belzons had practiced art as an amateur 
 abroad, and coming to Charleston had set up there as a miniature painter.* 
 It was arranged that young Tom should take instructions from this gen- 
 tleman, who had by marriage become his brother-in-law. 
 
 *In the Charleston Directory for the year 1797 appears " Mons. Belzons, Miniature 
 Painter, 28 Church St."

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 There is nothing to show that Mr. Belzons' abilities were in any way 
 extraordinary, no doubt indeed very moderate. But what does seem 
 well-established is that he did not possess the patience requisite for the 
 r6le of a teacher. So it was not long after, following a violent scene, in 
 which the brother-in-law's temper appears to have been much at fault, 
 that the relations of pupil and instructor were abruptly ended. This came 
 about, when Sully was i6 years of age (1799). It was a serious crisis in 
 the youth's outlook in life. His parents were no longer living, his elder 
 brother Lawrence had removed to Richmond, Va., and worse still, he was 
 without means. The story goes that after the rupture at Belzons', his 
 late pupil spent the first night in a public refuge, so determined was he 
 not to seek a reconciliation. The next day, meeting a friend, he related 
 what had occurred and asserted his determination not to return to his 
 brother-in-law's house. The friend sympathized in these feelings, and 
 better still was able to offer him some temporary protection. Then Mr. 
 Read, a Navy agent, became interested in the youth's difficulties, and 
 offered his interest to procure a midshipman's birth for him. The offer 
 was accepted, and our future painter came near becoming a sailor. But 
 fortunately for the cause of art, his brother Lawrence got into commun- 
 ication with him and proposed that he should come to Richmond and be- 
 come his pupil. Some difficulties were experienced in arranging for 
 transportation to Richmond, but happily these were overcome through 
 the liberality of a sea-captain, who carried young Sully to Norfolk in his 
 own ship. Here he tarried a few days at Capt. Leffingwell's house until 
 his brother remitted funds, with which he was enabled to discharge his 
 debt to the captain and pay for a passage on the James River to Rich- 
 mond. 
 
 His brother Lawrence, at this time a man of some 30 years of age, 
 and in whose house he now came to live, had some years previously mar- 
 ried Sarah Annis, of Annapolis, Md. Two children had been born of 
 the marriage, and the birth of a third daughter, still further increased the 
 family, in the following year. With this considerable household the two 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 brothers later determined to remove to Norfolk. Here it was, on May 
 loth, 1 80 1, that young Thomas Sully painted his first miniature from life, 
 being a likeness of his brother Chester Sully. 
 
 That invaluable "Account of Pictures", for so he himself styles it 
 rather than a " Register," and which Sully so sedulously kept, was begun 
 at this time, and the first entry in its pages is one describing the minia- 
 ture just mentioned. It is interesting to follow the entries throughout 
 the book, but a peculiar halo seems to hover over these opening pages. 
 They appear to foreshadow the success that was to follow, and to be elo- 
 quent of a steady tenacity of purpose. The youthful Sully evidently 
 feels that he has entered upon his rightful career. It is to be no hap- 
 hazard adventure, but a steady and increasing employment. He rules 
 his book in columns, enters first the date at which any likeness is begun, 
 followed by the size of the picture, then the sitter's name with perhaps 
 some explanatory note attached, and finally the price or value of the por- 
 trait, and the date of its completion. These succeeding entries, carried 
 through each year, form a most illuminating commentary on the growth 
 of Sully's powers, and the favor with which the efforts of his brush be- 
 came increasingly rewarded. 
 
CHAPTER II 
 
 "First attempt in oil colors" — Meeting with Thomas Abthorpe 
 Cooper — Removes to New York City — Paints numerous portraits 
 
 OF DRAMATIC PEOPLE — ViSITS GiLBERT StUART IN BoSTON — REMOVES 
 
 TO Philadelphia — Sails for England. 
 
 ADDRESSING ourselves, therefore, to these records, we find that 
 in 1 80 1 he painted "10 pieces," valued at $180. The year that 
 followed was meagre of results, but Sully signalized its passage 
 by his " first attempt in oil colors," painting a small portrait of William 
 Armistead. 
 
 1803 proved a much better year in the amount of work produced, 
 but an event followed towards its close that was to bring with it grave 
 and unlooked-for responsibilities. This was the death of his brother 
 Lawrence. (The latter had moved back to Richmond with his family, 
 and Thomas had followed him there.) This unexpected calamity, instead 
 of overwhelming and stifling young Sully's art ambitions, appears only 
 to have moved him to greater effort. Now he displayed that steady forti- 
 tude which distinguished him in after life, for without a moment's hesita- 
 tion he at once undertook the support of his brother's orphaned children 
 and their mother. Here we may anticipate our story by relating that 
 some two years following this event, Thomas married the widow. She 
 was some four years his senior, but the union turned out a most happy 
 one. No fewer than nine children were the issue of this marriage, and 
 the ties uniting the children of Lawrence and those of his brother Thomas 
 appear to have been of the closest and most affectionate nature. Sully's 
 domestic life was distinguished by all that nice regard for the duties and 
 responsibilities of parenthood that are sometimes lacking in those " mar- 
 
 7 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 ried to Art." His life was well ordered and benevolent, thoughtful and 
 considerate in its relations with all men ; and we shall find this bearing 
 fruit in the esteem in which he was held in his lifetime, as well as the 
 affectionate regard paid his memory. 
 
 Just previous to his brother Lawrence's death our youthful artist, 
 ever seeking for means of improvement, had planned to go abroad with 
 a view of study. Of course this had to be abandoned ; but fortunately 
 he was enabled to carry out the project a few years later, as we shall dis- 
 cover in the course of our story. 
 
 Sully's exertions during the next two years produced only moderate 
 gains ; thus in 1805 he notes having painted " 30 pieces ", valued at ^680, 
 while in 1806 the number, estimated at only 18, brings rewards amount- 
 ing to $527. 
 
 It was in the month of November of this year that he removed to 
 New York City. Its coming about was the result of a meeting with 
 Thomas Abthorpe Cooper, the distinguished English actor, then on a 
 theatrical tour of the South, and stopping for a while at Richmond. 
 Dunlap,* when recounting their meeting, merely states that Cooper, sit- 
 ting to Sully for his portrait, formed a friendship for the painter, etc., etc.; 
 but the tradition preserved among the descendants of the English actor 
 is that Cooper, learning of young Sully's tribulations, sought him out, and, 
 after sitting to him for his portrait, advised and encouraged him to seek 
 a wider and more promising field. It is entirely probable that this is the 
 true story, for to a generously disposed man, as Cooper appears among 
 his contemporaries, knowledge that a young fellow-countryman of talent 
 was in difficulties through lack of patronage, would be likely to prompt 
 him in seeking him out, as he is reported to have done. At any rate, 
 the fact is indisputable that it was Cooper who advised and planned for 
 Sully's removal to New York, and this with Cooper's assistance, was 
 carried out a few months following the Richmond meeting. It proved a 
 
 * History of Rise and Progress of Arts of Design in U. S., by Wm. Dunkp. 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 turning-point in Sully's career ; Cooper at once introduced him to mem- 
 bers of his own profession, and the entries in Sully's "Account of Pic- 
 tures " attest that his new friend and patron gave practical expression to 
 his generous feelings. In November, Sully records having painted John 
 Harwood, of New York Theatre, " for Cooper," and Mrs. Twaits of New 
 York Theatre, "for Cooper" ; in December Mrs. Darley of New York 
 Theatre, "for Cooper." Later followed portraits of Mr. Darley, "for 
 Cooper." Also Mrs. Villars, in the character of Lady Macbeth, and Mrs. 
 Warren, of the Philadelphia Theatre ; evidencing that the painter's intro- 
 duction to the actor and his circle carried with it substantial benefit. 
 
 In fact, at the end of 1807, our artist, now 24 years of age, is able 
 to count "pieces" painted to the number of 70, and his receipts at 
 $3,203 (!) 
 
 But, as there is no bright light that has not its corresponding shadow, 
 we find entered also, " The Embargo was put in force at the close of this 
 year, 1807; which greatly injured my prospects." It was in this same 
 year, 1807, that our newly launched Sully first had an opportunity of 
 meeting Gilbert Stuart, then at the height of his fame, and settled in 
 Boston. 
 
 Armed with a letter of introduction from Cooper to Mr. Andrew 
 Allen, of Boston, he visited that city, and through the latter was intro- 
 duced to Stuart. It happened very fortunately that at the very time of 
 Sully's advent Allen was fulfilling an engagement to sit to Stuart for his 
 own portrait. They went together, therefore, to Stuart's studio, and 
 Sully, when describing the meeting and his experience, relates: "I had 
 the privilege of standing by the artist's chair during the sitting, a situation 
 I valued more at that moment than I shall ever again appreciate any 
 station on earth " (!) Then a still happier circumstance occurred, for 
 while lingering in the painting room there entered there Isaac P. Davis, 
 a well-known and liberal Bostonian, and an attached friend of Gilbert 
 Stuart's. Following mutual introductions, an arrangement was made 
 that Mr. Davis should sit to Sully, and that Stuart would pass upon the 
 
 9 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 portrait when finished, with a view of giving helpful criticism. We can 
 readily enter into Sully's feelings when, having finished the picture, he 
 carried it to Stuart. We had best quote his own description of what 
 occurred. 
 
 " He looked at it for a long time, and every moment of procrastina- 
 tion added to my torment. He deliberated and I trembled. At length, 
 he said, 'keep what you have got, and get as much as you can.' " (!) Of 
 course, the " keep what you have got " must have fallen like a benedic- 
 tion upon Sully's ears. Coming from Stuart, it meant everything. The 
 latter followed up his favorable criticism by added encouragement, and 
 communicated to Sully his own arrangement of colors when painting, and 
 the manner he had of using them. He offered advice and recounted his 
 own experience. It is small wonder that Sully retained to the end of his 
 career a warm admiration of Stuart's genius. In some recollections that 
 he jotted down in 1869, and but three years preceding his own death, he 
 takes occasion to vindicate Stuart's memory against certain charges circu- 
 lated, touching his personal habits.* 
 
 Following his Boston visit, and at the instance of his friend Mr. 
 Benjamin Chew Wilcocks, Sully determined to take up his residence in 
 Philadelphia. We can approximate the time through a portrait painted 
 of Mr. Wilcocks' sister, which he began on December 9, i8o7.f This 
 
 * Sully expressed himself to the following effect: " He (Stuart) has been called a 
 man who drank too much, but I never saw him the least disguised by liquor. I have been 
 with him in company, but never witnessed the slightest impropriety." (^Recollections of 
 an Old Painter. Hours at Home, Vol. X.) 
 
 t He did not settle in Philadelphia until the following year (1808) , painting the por- 
 trait of Miss Wilcocks at his first visit. When coming to Philadelphia from New York at 
 this time he bore the following letter addjessed to Miss Rebecca Gratz by his friend Wash- 
 ington Irving : 
 
 " I hardly need introduce the bearer, Mr. Sully to you, as I trust you recollect him 
 perfectly. He purposes passing the winter in your city, and as he will be ' a mere stranger 
 and sojourner in the land,' I would solicit for him your good graces. He is a gentleman 
 for whom I have a great regard , not merely on account of his professional abilities , which 
 
 10 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 painting has the distinction of being the first portrait coming from Sully's 
 brush in the opening of his new career in Philadelphia. It was to be fol- 
 lowed, as we know, by a succession of portraits, the list of which alone 
 indicates the immense vogue that he gained, and the growing demand, 
 that the features of Philadelphia's loveliest women, and her most dis- 
 tinguished men, should be perpetuated by Thomas Sully's pencil. 
 
 Sully was now receiving what in these days seems an almost ludic- 
 rously small sum for the work he was doing. Fifty dollars was his regular 
 price for a bust portrait. When the size ran somewhat larger, approach- 
 ing a half-length, ^80 was paid him. Of course he was still a very young 
 man, only now about entering his twenty-fifth year. But as one looks at 
 these early pictures one cannot help envying the fortunate recipients of 
 so much enduring art. After the lapse of more than a hundred years, 
 and in spite of the famous names in portraiture that have emerged in that 
 period of time, they continue, in the opinion of connoisseurs, to rank as 
 among the loveliest counterfeit presentments, to be found either in this 
 country or abroad. 
 
 The injury to his art prospects by the Embargo Act, which our 
 readers will recall Sully's allusion to at the close of 1807, necessitated 
 some sacrifice, on his part, and we find him, at the opening of 1808, en- 
 engaging to paint portraits for a list of subscribers at the reduced price 
 of $30 to each sitter. His friends interested themselves in this plan, and 
 Sully's written records show that he painted the portraits of at least 26 
 sitters on these terms, a " Dr. E. Griffiths" heading the list of those who 
 sat to him in the series of what in the language of the day will be termed 
 " thrift " portraits. 
 
 are highly promising, but for his amiable character and engaging manners. I think I can- 
 not render him a favour for which he ought to be more grateful than in introducing him to 
 the notice of yourself and your connections. . . . Excuse the liberty I have taken, and 
 believe me with the warmest friendship. Ever yours, 
 
 Washington Irving. 
 New York, Nov. 4TH, 1807. 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 A yearning for opportunities of greater improvement had again set 
 it, and in this year Sully looks about for means to visit England, where 
 in London, he feels sure, the surroundings he seeks will not be lacking. 
 It was at this juncture that his Philadelphia friend and patron, Mr. Benja- 
 min Chew Wilcocks, came especially to his aid. This gentleman going 
 about among his intimates secured the adhesion of six sympathizing 
 friends, who with himself agreed to subscribe $200 each towards the pro- 
 posed journey, and fortunately on terms which enabled Sully to accept of 
 the offer, seeing that he could honorably discharge the debt. 
 
 In repayment, it was agreed that Sully should furnish each of the sub- 
 scribers with a copy of some master, to be painted while in London and 
 shipped at his own expense to Philadelphia. This entire transaction 
 shows Sully in a most favorable light. He might have been very well 
 content to forego all such extraordinary effort. He was, with the powers 
 already at his command, in a position where he could in normal times, 
 feel sure of employment, and, with a reputation that, to one less spurred 
 by the highest ambition, might have seemed sufficient. It is likewise 
 evidence of the regard felt for his capacities, that these gentlemen were 
 willing to encourage him in his more ambitious plans. 
 
 It was no light task, however, that he undertook, and when men- 
 tioning this period of his life to a friend, his comment was, "I will not 
 dwell upon the slavery I went through nor the close economy used, to 
 enable me to fulfill my engagement ; but although habitually industrious, 
 I never passed nine months of such incessant application." This alludes 
 to his experiences in London of which we shall speak in the next chapter. 
 
 On the 17th day of May, 1809, by a decree of the Court of Common 
 Pleas of Philadelphia, Thomas Sully was admitted to American citizen- 
 ship, and in anticipation of his voyage abroad he secured a government 
 passport, bearing date June 3, 1809. On the loth of June he set sail 
 from the Delaware, and after a voyage just short of five weeks, landed in 
 Liverpool on July 13th (1809).

 SULLY'S alacrity in settling to his task is clearly proven, when we find 
 him in less than two weeks' time setting up his easel in London. He 
 had taken the precaution of arming himself with a number of letters 
 of introduction. To Benjamin West he bore a letter from Mr. Wm. Rawle, 
 of Philadelphia. His experience with the veteran American painter in 
 London, was to prove very much the same as when coming under Gilbert 
 Stuart in Boston. At their very first interview. West remarked, " I can't 
 teach you until I know what you can do. Paint a head and show it to 
 me." So we find, by an entry in Sully's " Register," that already on July 
 25th he has painted a likeness "Head-size" of his friend and fellow- 
 artist, Charles B. King, "as a specimen to show West." West appears 
 to have detected an indecision on Sully's part in expressing the anatomy 
 of the head, betraying some lack of knowledge of the internal structure. 
 He therefore advised the young painter to study osteology assiduously. 
 Sully was not slow in acting on this valuable advice, and there can be 
 little doubt that his having followed it, played an important part in the 
 marked development shown at the end of his English visit, and when re- 
 newing his portrait painting in Philadelphia. His method of study in 
 London was to copy anatomical engravings at night ; in addition to which 
 he and his friend King studied from a model hired to stand in their 
 painting room. 
 
 Charles B. King, the artist just mentioned, and to whom Sully be- 
 came greatly attached, was the first person whom Sully had sought out 
 
 13 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 after his arrival in London. King had already been in London some 
 years, and was therefore familiar with art affairs in the English capital, 
 such knowledge proving of great use to Sully. These kindred spirits at 
 once discovered an interchange of sympathy, and therefore agreed to 
 share an apartment between them, and occupy a painting-room together. 
 Long after, Sully, when referring to this episode, remarked, " I resided 
 under the same roof with him (King) and our painting-room was in com- 
 mon during my stay in London ; an intimacy of twenty years enables me 
 to testify to qualities of heart and correctness of conduct rarely equalled 
 for purity or usefulness." * 
 
 West had by this time abandoned portrait painting. He had proved 
 himself a very good portrait painter, but apparently historical composition 
 was the form in which he preferred to express himself; and which he con- 
 ceived stood upon a higher plane than the other. This is brought out 
 very clearly in a letter addressed to Charles Willson Peale at very nearly 
 the same time we are describing. The elder Peale's son Rembrandt was 
 about embarking for France to study painting, and collect the portraits 
 of eminent men. After expressions of kindly interest, West writes : 
 "Although I am friendly to portraying eminent men, I am not friendly to 
 the indiscriminate waste of genius (!) in portrait painting "; f he then 
 goes on to lay particular stress on the young man's approaching oppor- 
 tunity for the study of classical examples in Paris, and to urge his taking 
 advantage of it. He was equally outspoken with Sully, and after re- 
 
 * This estimable man was a native of Newport, and passed his summers there and his 
 winters in Washington. During a period of forty years his studio at the Capital was filled 
 with the portraits of the political and other celebrities of the day, — not remarkable for 
 artistic superiority, but often curious and valuable as likenesses, especially the Indian por- 
 traits. His industry and simple habits enabled him to acquire a handsome competence, 
 and his amiable and exemplary character won him many friends. He died at Washington, 
 D. C, March i8, 1862, at the age of seventy-six. (Henry T. Tuckerman, •' Book of the 
 Artists.") 
 
 t Gilbert Stuart took the opposite view, saying that " no man ever painted history, if 
 he could obtain employment in portraits. ' ' 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 marking that he did not paint portraits himself any longer, told him to go 
 about and see what portraits he liked best. From what followed it seems 
 certain that the paintings of Sir Thomas Lawrence particularly attracted 
 Sully. He made this distinguished artist's acquaintance, and was highly 
 pleased at the reception accorded him. His own account gives some in- 
 teresting details of the interview, and mentions the particular source from 
 which he had secured a letter of introduction. We shall therefore quote 
 Sully's own words : 
 
 " A miniature painter named Miles, who used to be in the employ of the 
 Emperor Paul of Russia, upon Paul's death came to America and taught draw- 
 ing. He gave me a letter (letters?) to a number of painters, among whom was 
 Sir Thomas Lawrence. He received me very warmly on Miles' account, but was 
 too much of a gentleman not to add, ' and on your own also.' So when West 
 said to me, ' I don't paint portraits myself, go about and see whose portraits you 
 like best,' I availed myself of Lawrence's instruction. . . . Lawrence was one of 
 the most finished gentlemen I ever met. . . . He made a good deal of money, 
 but was too generous to grow rich, for if a beggar asked him for five pounds he 
 would give him fifty ( !)." 
 
 Sir Thomas Lawrence was a great friend of the Kembles, and there 
 are pleasant accounts of that intimacy to be found in Fanny Kemble's 
 " Record of a Girlhood." * Sully himself was later to come into most 
 amicable relations with the spirited author of those biographical Records. 
 She came to the United States in 1832 with her father, Charles Kemble. 
 Sully's portraits of her made at the time of this visit are charming ex- 
 amples. He painted the much f^ted and admired young actress in a 
 number of the characters that she assumed on the stage, as "Beatrice," 
 "Bianca," "Juliet," etc., as well as portraying her in the likeness of her 
 natural self. The portrait of her in Shakespeare's " Beatrice " and which 
 
 * She pays Lawrence the following compliment apropos of a knowledge of the stage 
 and acting : " Sir Thomas Lawrence is the only unprofessional person I ever heard speak 
 upon it whose critical opinion and judgment seemed to me worth anything." 
 
 15 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 hangs at the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia is probably the most 
 effective of those he painted of her in character. It is the one that Fanny 
 Kemble herself expressed a preference for. 
 
 Sully has sometimes been called the "Sir Thomas Lawrence of 
 America" and it is not to be denied that there are enough points of re- 
 semblance between the two to suggest such a comparison. The English 
 artist, while painting a goodly number of masculine portraits, and in 
 many instances with marked success, was undoubtedly at his best when 
 portraying the galaxy of lovely women distinguished both by birth and 
 beauty that flocked to his easel during the height of his success. 
 
 Sully, in the same way, has no small number of effective portraits of 
 men to his credit. They comprise the likenesses of distinguished soldiers, 
 statesmen, actors and literati, prominent in their day and generation, and 
 many of these portraits are extremely impressive. But his forte lay in 
 delineating the softness and charm of female character. 
 
 It may be objected by some of Sully's many admirers that the link- 
 ing of his name in a comparison with that of Lawrence is not the meed of 
 praise they would seek to have bestowed. Since Lawrence's death, or 
 rather following close upon it, it has been the fashion to detract from his 
 living reputation as a painter. Mrs. Kemble touches upon it in her 
 "Recollections," and while admitting that "of his merit as a painter an 
 unduly favorable estimate was taken during his life," concludes that 
 " since his death his reputation has suffered an undue depreciation." She 
 then goes on to speak in admiration of " his lovely head of Mrs. Nugent, 
 the splendid one of Lady Habberton, and the noble picture of my grand- 
 mother" (Mrs. Siddons). Among the male portraits she prefers his 
 likeness of Canning, the portrait of Lord Aberdeen, and of her uncle, 
 John Kemble. 
 
 In estimating Lawrence's art, it should be remembered that he suc- 
 ceeded a school of portraiture that perhaps has never been excelled. To 
 tread upon the heels of Gainsborough, Reynolds and Romney, paint con- 
 
 i6 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 temporaneously with such masters as Raeburn and Hoppner, and yet 
 establish the high reputation that Sir Thomas did, is distinction in itself. 
 
 Benjamin West thought highly of Lawrence's art. To a friend who 
 expressed regret that Sir Thomas did not more often employ his time in 
 works similar to his celebrated " Satan" and "less to portraiture", West 
 replied, " Do not confound his pictures with mere portraits ; painted as 
 his are they cease to be portraits in the ordinary sense ; they rise to the 
 dignity of history ... his reputation must last as long as the arts shall 
 be valued by mankind." * 
 
 Both the English and the American artist felt tenderness toward 
 children and in the happy delineation of childhood Lawrence was thought 
 to excel. Can any question exist as to Thomas Sully's charming ac- 
 complishment in the same field? The sprightly smiling faces that he 
 painted with so much tender grace are the very embodiment of innocence 
 and happy childhood. Fortunate indeed are possessors of such canvasses 
 from Sully's brush. 
 
 Some idea of the immense zeal shown, and the self-denial practiced 
 by our student while in his English surroundings may be gathered from 
 the following anecdote. It is related that at his first interview with 
 C. B. King, the artist, in London, the latter inquired as to his proposed 
 length of . stay, and as to how much money he had brought for the 
 purpose. When Sully answered, " Four hundred dollars," King replied, 
 "Why, my good sir, that is not enough for three months! I'll tell you 
 what. I am not ready to go home, my funds are almost expended, and 
 before I saw you I had been conning a plan to spin them out and give 
 me more time. Can you live low? " "All I want is bread and water," 
 replied Sully. " Oh ! then you may live luxuriously, for we will add 
 potatoes and milk to it. It will do ! We will live in these rooms, they 
 
 * Judging by the prices paid now for Lawrence's pictures, West's estimate and pre- 
 diction are both being realized. His portrait of Miss Farren, afterwards Countess of Derby 
 (in a white silk dress lined with fur) , sold at Christie's in London in 1897 for 2415 guineas. 
 
 17 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 will serve us both. We will buy a stock of potatoes, take in bread and 
 milk daily, and . . . work away like merry fellows." And this they 
 decided bravely to do, and as it turned out, with happy results. 
 
 It was through Benjamin West's thoughtfulness that Sully was put 
 in the way of beginning almost immediately, the execution of the copies 
 promised his friends and patrons in Philadelphia. He soon discovered 
 that while permission to view private collections of paintings in England 
 might be forthcoming, no opportunity would be granted for copying any 
 of the pictures. He then considered the advisability of going to France, 
 where he was told a more liberal spirit prevailed. Before making a 
 decision, however, he thought it well to take Mr. West into his con- 
 fidence, and it was well that he did so. West showed the greatest 
 sympathy, and is reported to have spoken as follows : 
 
 "I understand that your object on your return is portrait painting ; 
 then stay in England. You wish to fulfill an engagement and improve 
 yourself by copying some pictures. My collection, old and new, is at 
 your service. There are specimens of the ancient masters and of the 
 moderns. Take them as you want them, and come to me for my advice 
 when you want it." 
 
 How nobly the old painter lives up to his reputation of benignity 
 and generosity! By "take them" West actually authorized Sully to 
 carry the picture he might be copying to his own painting room, — an 
 immense advantage, both facilitating and expediting the work he was 
 so anxious to accomplish. After such an experience, it seems but 
 natural that the first picture Sully should undertake to copy would be 
 one from his benefactor's brush. He chose the latter's painting taken 
 from the story of " Pylades and Orestes." This is said to have been 
 Benjamin West's first venture in the special field of composition he 
 had marked out for himself. The picture had attracted much attention 
 and was finally purchased by Sir George Beaumont, who included it in a 
 gift of pictures to the British Government. Dunlap, in 1 834, when de- 
 
 18 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 scribing the picture, notes that " there is an admirable copy of it in this 
 country (U. S. A.), painted by Mr. Sully." * 
 
 His second work was the " Holy Family" after Correggio, begun in 
 September and finished in October. Then followed a picture which is 
 now in Philadelphia, Raphael's "Madonna della Sedia." It was begun 
 and completed in the month of December. This charmingly executed 
 copy is in the possession of Mrs. Alex, D. Campbell, a daughter of Mr. 
 Benj. Chew Wilcocks, for whom it was painted. This lady is fortunate 
 in the possession of a fair-sized gallery of Thomas Sully's works, which 
 from their variety and excellence form a most attractive collection. 
 
 Our untiring artist followed up his Madonna with a copy of Sir 
 Joshua Reynolds' " Holy Family." This was a large canvas, as was the 
 succeeding one, " Telemachus in the Island of Calypso," f after Benjamin 
 West. These last two works were begun in January (1810) but not com- 
 pleted until March ist and 2nd respectively, or about a week before 
 Sully's sailing from England on his return voyage to America. 
 
 He had also executed some half-dozen landscapes on an order from 
 a gentleman in Philadelphia,! so that he had kept his promise for the 
 classical copies, and painted these works in addition. 
 
 Sully had been abroad nine months ; that is, allowing for the voyage 
 over, he had been able to devote something like eight months to the pros- 
 ecution of his plan for study and improvement. The reader, we hope, 
 from our recital, will have been able to measure the spirit of ardor and 
 devotion shown. It may be recalled that following the young student's 
 arrival he very soon discovered that the means at his command would 
 not permit of a longer stay than the period just coming to a close. 
 West's letter, already quoted and written to a friend in Philadelphia, 
 foreshadowed the financial difficulties in the way. These obstacles seem

 only to have had the effect of rousing all Sully's faculties and of filling 
 him with a determination to make even the short period of probation 
 fulfill the expectations of his friends. 
 
 Happily we shall find that in none of these hopes were they to be 
 disappointed. He exhibited a marked advance in his art at his return, 
 and the portraits painted in the years that immediately followed, placed 
 him in the very front rank of living portraitists. It was on the loth of 
 March (1810) that he set sail for home, and he so noted it in his Records, 
 Under what different conditions shall we find him revisiting England when 
 in middle life, to paint his well-known portrait of Queen Victoria in her 
 coronation robes !

 Back in Philadelphia — Paints first full-length portrait — Likeness

 Decatur's portrait — Sully's kindness to young C. R. Leslie — 
 Paints " Washington Crossing the Delaware." 
 
 TRADITION has it that on Sully's return to Philadelphia he occu- 
 pied a house jointly with Benjamin Trott, the justly celebrated 
 miniature painter. Doubtless they were intimate, but careful 
 examination fails to discover proof of this reported arrangement. 
 
 Sully, before going abroad in 1809, was established at "162 Mul- 
 berry Street," afterwards renamed "Arch Street." Following the old 
 numbering on Chestnut Street, this would place his dwelling at 5th and 
 Arch Streets. In that same year (1809) and in the following year (1910) 
 Trott's address appears in the Directory as at the " Corner of 6th and 
 Minor Streets." Sully's address in the last mentioned year is quoted as 
 at "56 South nth Street." It was doubtless therefore at the latter 
 domicile that we find him resuming his brush, on April 24th, 18 10, and 
 painting the bust of a Mr. Dalmatia. He is careful to note that " It is the 
 first on my return to Philadelphia." A month or two later he paints a 
 portrait of Mrs. Dalmatia. (Just who these sitters were we have not dis- 
 covered.) To Mr. Dalmatia succeeds " Mr. Dwyer, Comedian," show- 
 ing that the dramatic profession had not forgotten Cooper's earlier 
 prot6g6.. Dwyer was an Irishman, enjoying considerable celebrity, and 
 we find him noted in Wm. B. Wood's "Recollections of the Stage," 
 where he speaks of him as being "much admired." 
 
 Then follows a portrait of E. Hudson (Dentist). The latter was an 
 Irishman by birth also, and coming to Philadelphia in 1805, ultimately 
 
 21 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 rose to prominence in his profession, James Gardette was the only 
 dentist of note in the city at that period, so that the field was open to a 
 man of ability, which Hudson soon proved himself to be. The portrait 
 reveals a spirited figure, the countenance bespeaking alertness and force. 
 It would make a good companion picture to the well-known likeness of 
 Dr. Thomas Parke that hangs at the Library Company of Philadelphia, 
 and which Sully painted 12 years later. Dr. Hudson's portrait remains 
 in the possession of a lady descendant, connected through marriage, and 
 residing at Burlington, N. J. 
 
 Sully now feels sufficient confidence in his powers to undertake the 
 painting of a whole-length figure. His sitter for this portrait is Wm. B. 
 Wood, the popular actor-manager, in the character of " Charles de Moor," 
 from Schiller's celebrated play of " The Robbers." This painting is in 
 Philadelphia, and we have had recent opportunity for examining it. The 
 scene depicted is the Camp of the Robbers at sunrise. In the foreground 
 is seen the half-recumbent figure of Von Moor, the bandit chief, sur- 
 rounded by three or four of his satellites, to whom their leader is evi- 
 dently giving commands. Pistols are at his belt, and the turbaned 
 banditti gathered about him appear intent upon his orders. The color- 
 ing is excellent, and the entire composition well carried out. 
 
 This play of Schiller's entitled " Die Raiiber," was written when 
 its author was but 19 years of age. It had great success in the 
 dramatist's native land, and found favor in other countries in translated 
 form. Here in Philadelphia, in its English translation, it became a 
 favorite play, and was frequently performed. 
 
 The dramatic portrait just described was soon to be followed by 
 another, that attracted greater attention, and is still cited with high 
 approval whenever Sully's powers as a portrait painter are under 
 review. This was the likeness, life-size, of George Frederick Cooke 
 in the r6le of Richard III. The coming of this English actor to our 
 shores was an event in theatrical annals, and many anecdotes of his 
 genius, as well as of his eccentricities, have been preserved. While 
 
 22 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 playing many parts, Sir Pertinax in "The Man of the World," being 
 accounted one of his best, among his Shakespearian roles the character 
 of Richard appears to have found most favor. He had played it abroad 
 with success, and he made his American d^but in the part. In per- 
 forming it, as far as costume was concerned, he never resorted to the 
 usual practice of wearing an artificial "mountain on my back," nor 
 "legs of an unequal size," although these personal points are so 
 strongly marked in the text. Wm. B. Wood, in his "Recollections," 
 when discussing the matter, remarks that " his uniform costume while 
 acting in our theatres, is preserved in Sully's fine picture now in the 
 Academy of Fine Arts at Philadelphia." He refers again to the por- 
 trait when writing of Cooke's demise in the following year. "The 
 greatest event at this time connected with the Drama . . . was the 
 death of George Frederick Cooke, who died in the City of New York. 
 A special tribute to his extraordinary dramatic genius was considered 
 to be due him. The stage was arrayed in mourning ; and the fine full- 
 length portrait of him by Mr. Sully was exhibited !' 
 
 Some time previously we find Washington Irving writing from 
 Philadelphia to his friend Henry Brevoort in New York about the 
 picture. " Sully has finished a very fine and careful portrait of Cooke, 
 and has begun a full-length picture of him in the character of Richard. 
 This he is to receive $300 for, from the gentlemen of Philadelphia who 
 opened a subscription for the purpose which was filled up in an hour." 
 
 Sully has left on record his meeting with Cooke and the impression 
 made upon him by his acting : " I painted Cooke the actor about two 
 weeks after he came to Philadelphia. I made 3 pictures of him — a full- 
 length in the character of Richard III, now in the Philadelphia Academy ; 
 one dressed as a gentleman, owned by Mr. Edwin Forrest, and a head 
 which I learn has recently been sold in New York. He was a bon-vivant 
 and a wonderful actor. When I first saw him act in Philadelphia it was 
 very difficult to get into the house. In the first scenes I was disap- 
 pointed, but as the play advanced I grew enthusiastic. Mr, Benjamin 
 
 23 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Wilcox was with me, and our seat was a carpenter's horse. When he 
 wanted to applaud he would cry, ' Get off, Sully, get ofif,' and then he 
 would pound away vigorously with both ends of our seat." 
 
 During the next succeeding years, Sully was to paint portraits which 
 for vigor and truthfulness show him at his best. Two of these were 
 painted in 1 8 1 3, one being a half-length of James Ross of Pennsylvania, 
 now hanging at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the 
 other a whole-length of Samuel Coates, President of the Pennsylvania 
 Hospital. The latter was a gift by Sully to this institution, and not, as it 
 has been made to appear elsewhere, for a payment of |4CX). Sully, in 
 his "Account of Pictures," places a value on it of that amount,* but the 
 Minutes of the Hospital show very clearly that no money payment what- 
 ever entered into the transaction ; thus : 
 
 " At a meeting of a number of the Contributors to the Pennsylvania Hos- 
 pital, held the third day of the fifth month 18 13, it having been stated that 
 Thomas Sully had presented to the institution a likeness of Samuel Coates, Presi- 
 dent of the Board of Managers, the following Resolution being moved and 
 seconded was unanimously adopted : 
 
 Resolved, That the thanks of this meeting be communicated to Thomas 
 Sully for his valuable present of a likeness of Sam'l Coates, Prest. of the Board 
 of Managers. 
 
 In connection with the full-length picture painted of Commodore 
 Stewart, at this same period. Sully tells an amusing anecdote. After re- 
 marking that " As a class, Friends are the most patient sitters, and sailors 
 the most impatient," he continues: "The most patient sailor I ever 
 painted was ' Old Ironsides,' then Capt. Stewart ... he called to 
 arrange the time for a sitting and was just going away when I said to 
 him, 'But, Captain, you have not told me the size.' 'Oh,' he replied, 
 ' the old woman (his mother) wants me, and she shall have me alto- 
 gether.' " 
 
 * As we pointed out in an earlier chapter, Sully invariably placed a valuation on 
 
 everything he painted. 
 
 24 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 We can hardly suppose that DuMaurier laid this anecdote under 
 contribution when relating the career of "Trilby" (!). 
 
 Sully's experience when painting Decatur for the municipality of 
 New York was of a very different character, for he notes that " he (De- 
 catur) was a very impatient sitter, although a most gentlemanly man," 
 remarking also that " he had very much of a French face, with a long 
 nose." The portrait has never been regarded as a particularly happy 
 effort of Sully's brush, and this restlessness on the part of Decatur during 
 the sittings may be the explanation for its shortcomings.* 
 
 Sully's reputation had now become firmly established, and in the 
 next few years sitters will come to him in increasing numbers. A glance 
 at the list which is a part of this biography will confirm the statement. 
 His income begins to show a gratifying increase, and a calculation of his 
 gains during the next lo years discloses an average yearly income of four 
 thousand dollars (^4,000). Not wealth, certainly ; but enabling the re- 
 cipient to maintain his family in comfort, while free himself from pecuni- 
 ary anxieties. 
 
 But Sully is not a -man to wrap himself up in his own success, and 
 turn his back on others less fortunate.f He has a ready sympathy for 
 aspiring talent, and becomes active in all movements for the promotion 
 of Art and encouragement of those engaged in its practice. He joins 
 the Society formed by a body of artists looking to the development of 
 the then recently established Academy of Fine Arts, and who were asso- 
 ciated as '' Pennsylvania Academicians." He was shortly after appointed 
 
 * Not the least interesting of Sully's notes connected with this portrait is the follow- 
 ing : " About this time I saw a great deal of Irving. When I had done with Decatur, 
 Irving carried me up to West Point; thence we went to Livingston and there parted. 
 When I went out sketching he used to accompany me, and would employ his time in 
 writing. 
 
 t Sully mentions meeting Eichholtz at Lancaster, Pa., in rSog, when the latter was 
 struggling hard to acquire the rudiments of painting, " I gave him during my stay in Lan- 
 caster all the professional information I could impart. ' ' 
 
 25 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 to, and served on, a Committee "to organize a system for the manage- 
 ment of the Schools of the Academy," and there can be little doubt that 
 his views exercised a controlling influence in any plan adopted. 
 
 His readiness to aid and encourage younger artists is exhibited by 
 the generous instruction given young Leslie (C. R.). The latter recounts 
 the incident himself in his Memoirs, and we cannot do better than tran- 
 scribe his own account of it. " Before I left Philadelphia, Mr. Sully, with 
 whom I had become acquainted, gave me the first lesson I received in oil 
 painting.* He began a copy of a picture in my presence, and then put 
 his palette and brushes into my hand, telling me to proceed in the same 
 way with a copy of my own. The next day he carried his work further, 
 and I again followed him, and so on, until the copies were both finished ; 
 thus explaining to me at once the processes of scumbling, glazing, etc." 
 
 This youth to whom Sully showed so much kindness, had through 
 his skill in drawing, and especially by a sketch made of George Frederick 
 Cooke, the actor, attracted the attention of a group of art connoisseurs in 
 Philadelphia. They determined that the embryo artist should be afforded 
 an opportunity for further developing his talents abroad. Under the lead 
 of Samuel T. Bradford, the leading bookseller in the Philadelphia of that 
 day, by whom young Leslie had been employed, a fund was subscribed 
 for the purpose. The distinguished career that came to Leslie, following 
 this start, fully justified the high opinion formed of his capacities. 
 
 Before his departure, Sully had playfully rallied him on his entire 
 ignorance of painting in oil, at the same time offering to instruct him. 
 Leslie very gratefully accepted the offer, as we have seen, and expressed 
 so great a sense of obligation that Sully, to lighten the burden, said that 
 he wanted no return except in kind, when he should demand it of him. 
 To give Sully's own account, written later in life : " He laughed at this, 
 and ridiculed the idea of his ever teaching me anything. But I knew

 where he was going to and assured him I was not joking, . . . When I 
 went to London (this refers to the year 1837, when Sully went to 
 England and painted Queen Victoria) I said, 'Now, Leslie, remem- 
 ber the promise you gave me.' I then made him tell me frankly my 
 leading fault. 'Your pictures look,' he said 'as if you could blow them 
 away.' 'Ah!' I replied, 'you mean that they lack strength?' 'Yes,' 
 said he, ' that is it.' After I had labored on and, as I thought, corrected 
 this fault, I asked him to tell me what other weakness he could see in my 
 painting. He said he had no other suggestion to offer, and bid me go 
 on my own way. Whenever he introduced me abroad, he would say, 
 ' This is the gentleman who taught me how to paint.' He did me many 
 acts of kindness. If I could put in money all the returns poor Charles 
 made me, it would amount to hundreds of dollars." 
 
 What has just been related was jotted down when Thomas Sully 
 was very far advanced in years, and long after Leslie had passed away. 
 The anecdote has been given here at some length, for the reason that an 
 impression appears to exist in certain quarters that Leslie had repaid 
 Sully with downright ingratitude. It is evident that Sully himself har- 
 bored no feeling of injury as an outgrowth of Leslie's critical remark. 
 Even so sympathetic a writer and admiring a critic as Tuckerman has 
 adverted to Sully's "fairy-like, unsubstantial manner," qualifying this, how- 
 ever, by adding that " there are subjects and sitters to which such a style 
 is exclusively adapted.'' But as between artists much must be allowed 
 for, and no better proof could be forthcoming than the anecdote that 
 Sully relates himself touching his own criticism of Benjamin West. The 
 latter, having invited him to point out any defects he might see in his 
 painting, Sully did not hesitate to tell the great man that he thought " his 
 outlines were too hard " (!). Here was as outspoken a criticism as 
 Leslie's reported expression, and addressed by one so young to so ven- 
 erable a master might well have seemed presumptuous ; but it was taken 
 in good part. West even taking the trouble to explain that he did it 
 purposely, "as a guide to the engravers," which Sully comments upon 
 as being a mistake in his judgment.

 Sully, while essentially identified with portraiture, still adhered to 
 the title of " History and Portrait Painter," apparently adopted when 
 setting up his easel in Philadelphia. In fact, as late as 1829 we find him 
 registered under that title, as also his daughter Jane, afterwards Mrs. 
 Darley. It is not surprising, therefore, to find him putting this title to 
 the proof when an opportunity presented itself. 
 
 In the fall of 181 8 he was applied to by the Legislature of North 
 Carolina for two full-length portraits of Washington. His reply was, a 
 proposition that, instead of these, he should paint one historical picture 
 representing some prominent action in which General Washington had 
 taken part ; and suggesting that the scene should be the crossing of the 
 Delaware for the attack on Trenton. 
 
 This offer was accepted, and Sully then wrote asking for information 
 as to the size of the place for which the picture was intended. Not re- 
 ceiving an answer, he proceeded with the work in a canvas of unusual 
 dimensions (actually 17' 4" x 12' 5"). He was engaged for a very con- 
 siderable time in painting this picture — Dunlap speaks of years — and had 
 the extreme disappointment, after it was finished, of being informed that, 
 owing to its great size, there was no place fitted to receive it, and so the 
 picture was thrown back on his hands. Ultimately he was able to dis- 
 pose of it for $500, to a frame-maker in Boston, who in turn sold it to 
 the Boston Museum.* This institution ceased to exist in 1892, but we 
 are happy to find that this picture passed into the possession of the 
 Boston Museum of Fine Arts, where quite recently the large canvas has 
 been unrolled, put in order and placed on view. 
 
 Another historical piece, finished somewhat earlier, was the " Cap- 
 ture of Major Andre." It is said to have been painted for Kearney, the 
 engraver, and the supposition followed that an engraving was to have 
 been made from it. This, however, does not appear to have been done. 
 An engraving of the " Washington Crossing the Delaware " was made 
 by W. Humphrys and G. S. Lang, and published in Philadelphia in 1825. 
 
 *This was the old museum and theatre.

CHAPTER V 
 
 Establishes Studio in Hall of Philosophical Society — Later changes 
 of location occupies house provided by stephen girard. 
 
 AT the opening of the previous chapter we adverted to the localities 
 in Philadelphia where Sully had carried on his painting, previous 
 to going abroad, and immediately following his return. Two 
 years after the latter event, his address has changed to the " Philosophical 
 Hall ", and here we shall find him pursuing his Art undisturbed for the 
 next ten years. 
 
 The records of the Philosophical Society have aided us in establish- 
 ing this fact, as well as of noting the relations of goodwill that existed on 
 the part of the Society and its members towards the subject of our 
 biography. At a meeting held on March 6, 1812, the question of leasing 
 certain rooms to Mr. Sully was brought up, and the " Committee was 
 empowered to execute a lease to Mr. Sully." Apparently this was for 
 two rooms on the second floor of the building, across from the large room 
 on the same floor, which has been invariably devoted to the uses of the 
 Society itself. At the time of which we write, there appear to have been 
 three rooms occupying the space now taken up by the single large room 
 on the north side of the second floor. At a meeting held two months 
 later, the Society is careful to note in its minutes that " The N. E. Room 
 2nd Story is ordered reserved for the Society in lease to Mr. Sully," 
 The room retained under this limitation appears to have been known as 
 the " Engravers' Room." Five years later further accommodations in 
 the Hall are granted the artist. Under date of February 17, 18 17, is an 
 entry to the effect that " Mr. Sully's proposition to lease the unoccupied 
 rooms is acceded to." These "unoccupied rooms" were undoubtedly 
 
 29 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 on the first floor, and Sully's object in obtaining them would seem to be 
 made clear through the following advertisement, appearing shortly after- 
 wards : 
 
 T. Sully's 
 
 Gallery of Pictures 
 
 is opened 
 
 For the Reception of Visitors 
 
 at his Residence in the Philosophical Hall 
 
 South Fifth Street 
 
 Admittance 25 cents 
 
 Just what success attended this venture is not ascertainable. We 
 are rather led to suppose that from a money-making standpoint it did not 
 make a very good return. William Dunlap, journeying south in the 
 autumn of 18 19, stopped with Sully for a day or two. He notes that 
 " He was at this time painting his great picture of the crossing of the 
 Delaware and occupied the Philosophical Hall adjoining the State House. 
 . , He had (built) opened an exhibition gallery with litde profit." 
 These were dull times in portrait painting, and Dunlap mentions that 
 Sully told him " he had not had a portrait to paint for Philadelphia since 
 May last." 
 
 At this historical and familiar locale our artist was to continue down 
 to the year 1822. A note written in that year indicates that a change was 
 then impending. We quote the letter in full, as besides reflecting Sully's 
 amiable traits ; it shows his delicate sense of obligation towards the fulfill- 
 ment of any promise made. 
 
 * March 26th, 2 O'clock. 
 N. BiDDLE, Esq. 
 
 Dear Sir: When I called on Mr. Brintinal last Saturday for the purpose of 
 engaging your house in Chestnut St. I had not been allowed to inspect the upper

 floor. On visiting it this morning, by appointment for that purpose, I discovered 
 that the front room was so much obscured by the trees on the opposite side of the 
 street as to render the light unfit for the purpose.* I am therefore obliged with 
 much disappointment and mortification to decline renting the house. 
 
 If I have been the occasion of any injury by my precipitancy, I will most 
 cheerfully make amends. Respectfully, 
 
 Yr. Obt. S'v't. 
 
 Thos. Sully. 
 
 Not having succeeded in establishing himself on Chestnut Street, as 
 we have just seen, Sully in 1823 and 1824 is to be found at 49 George 
 Street, which address answers to Sansom Street of the present day. In 
 1825 he has migrated to the corner of Fifth and Minor Streets, while 
 during 1826 and 1827 we find him established at 116 Chestnut Street. 
 This address, under the new system of numbering, introduced a few years 
 later, became 320 Chestnut Street. At the time of Sully's occupancy we 
 find it described as " a fine old-fashioned three-storied brick dwelling — 
 and which had a garden in its rear with outlets upon Hudson's Alley and 
 upon Carpenter's Court." 
 
 It is pleasant to reflect that our artist, when relinquishing so agree- 
 able a site, was not compelled to drop back into anything inferior. On 
 the contrary, we shall find that his next move placed him in most 
 congenial surroundings, and that through the consideration and nice 
 feeling of his new landlord, special facilities were provided him for the 
 prosecution of his art. Stephen Girard had acquired property in Chest- 
 nut Street, just below Fifth Street, included now in the Lafayette Build- 
 ing, belonging to the Girard Estate. In 1827 he made certain improve- 
 ments to the property by demolishing some old structures on the Chest- 
 nut Street front and erecting on their sites three substantial four-storied 
 brick buildings. Whether the house on Fifth Street afterwards known 
 as 1 1 South 5th Street was erected at this time, or already stood upon 
 
 * We see that 100 years ago our city still preserved one feature of a " green country 
 towne." 
 
 31 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 the ground, seems difficult to determine. One account is to the effect 
 that the house was " specially built for Mr. Sully by Stephen Girard with 
 a suitable painting room, expressly for the purpose in the back part of 
 the house," while the other is to the effect that " the house belonged to 
 Stephen Girard and Girard made alterations in it to suit Mr, Sully's de- 
 sires." In either event, the arrangement showed a friendly and appreci- 
 ative regard for the comfort of the artist, and stands out as an agreeable 
 incident in the life of the Merchant-Mariner. When painting the portrait 
 of a Dr. Aitkin, begun on October 24, 1828, Sully is careful to note that 
 it is " 1st work in Girard's house." This would seem to settle pretty 
 accurately the time of his having taken possession. 
 
 At this abode we shall find that he continued for the remainder of 
 his life ; a period of not less than 44 years. The painting-room appears 
 to have been admirably situated and arranged. It has been described as 
 " very large and lofty, lighted by a single window extending from floor to 
 ceiling — which gave the painter a flood of light — regulated by easily ad- 
 justed curtains." 
 
 There was also in the house an exhibition room. A gentleman still 
 living, who was on intimate terms with the artist and his family during 
 the later period of their occupancy, states that " at the head of the first 
 flight of stairs leading into the back building of the Sully house was the 
 exhibition room, which served also as an anteroom to the studio." In 
 addition to all these interior advantages, exterior ones were not wanting, 
 as there appears to have been a good-sized yard included in the northern 
 portion of the Sully lot, which insured to the studio a good northerly 
 light.* 
 
 After the death of Stephen Girard, which occurred in 1831, Mr. 
 Sully's leasehold was continued by the executors as later also by the 
 
 * This is confirmed through a list of Mr. Girard's property, ^/*// in 1832, where occurs 
 the following : " A lot of ground in the east side of Fifth street between Market and Chest- 
 nut Streets, north of the property occupied by Mr. Sully. Mr. Sully has the use of this 
 lot for a garden. ' ' 
 
 32 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Commissioners of the estate. There are references from time to time of 
 renewals of the lease, as also changes in the amount of the annual rent. 
 Thus in June, 1842, "Mr. Sully solicits a reduction of rent," and in the 
 same month follows : " Mr. Sully's rent was reduced from $665 to $555 
 per annum." In 1861, when the Civil War had begun, there was a 
 further reduction to $450 per annum " until better times." 
 
 Towards the close of his long tenancy, a gratifying mark of the re- 
 gard felt for him in the community in which he had so long lived and 
 labored, was the decision by the municipal authorities that certain changes 
 in the City plan, involving the removal or diminution of the premises 
 leased, should be deferred during Thomas Sully's lifetime. This was in 
 1867, when the building of a large market house (where the Bourse now 
 stands) was about being inaugurated. An ordinance had been passed 
 for the opening of Ranstead Street to the south of the building from 
 Fourth to Fifth Street. This carried with it the necessity of demolishing 
 the house occupied by Mr, Sully. The City Councils were appealed to 
 by influential citizens in support of Mr. Sully's prayer to be left undis- 
 turbed in his old home in the closing years of his life. As the artist 
 naively pleaded, referring to his wife and himself, " We shall not trouble 
 you long." * To the lasting credit of City Councils, this appeal was not 
 unheeded, and the width of the street opening at the 5th Street end was 
 so reduced as to leave unscathed and intact the domicile in which Sully 
 was to pass the remaining years of his life. 
 
 ♦There seems to have been something piophetic in this, for Mrs. Sully died on July 
 25th of the same year, and but a few months following her husband's prediction.

CHAPTER VI 
 
 Paints full-length portrait of General Lafayette at his farewell 
 VISIT TO THE United States in 1824-25. 
 
 THE farewell visit paid to the United States in 1824-5 by the Marquis 
 de la Fayette was an event that thrilled and roused to enthusiasm 
 the entire country. Without attempting to minimize the hearty re- 
 ception accorded the distinguished Frenchman in every part of the Union, 
 it is safe to say that in no other State or city was greater affection shown 
 his person than through the tributes paid him by the inhabitants of Penn- 
 sylvania and the citizens of Philadelphia. Preparations to welcome him 
 in the city were promptly set on foot, through a " Committee of Arrange- 
 ments " appointed by the City Councils. This body began its meetings 
 almost immediately on the announcement of the arrival of General 
 Lafayette upon our shores. 
 
 The Committee's first effort was directed towards ascertaining the 
 date at which the distinguished guest might be expected to arrive in 
 Philadelphia. For this purpose two members were delegated to visit 
 New York, where General Lafayette had landed on August 15, 1824. 
 At a formal meeting of the Committee on the morning of August 18, it 
 was stated that, apprehending " the General might arrive unexpectedly 
 in this City", with the concurrence of the Mayor, they had engaged 
 rooms at the Mansion House for the General. The Mayor stated that 
 he had forwarded to the General the invitation and resolutions of this 
 city. At an evening session more exact and reassuring news was 
 brought by Mr. Brown, of the Committee, who stated he had been pres- 
 ent in New York at the delivery of the letter from the Mayor of this city 
 to General Lafayette, and that the General contemplated visiting here 
 
 34 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 from the loth to 15th of September. As it turned out ultimately, the 
 Marquis after landing, made a journey through New York State, travel- 
 ing as far as Albany, and it was therefore not until towards the latter end 
 of September that he set out from New York on his visit to Philadelphia. 
 The Marquis had desired, on quitting Trenton (N. J.), to travel to 
 Bordentown (N. J.), pass the night at Point Breeze with the Comte de 
 Survilliers (Joseph Bonaparte), and resume his journey on the following 
 morning by steamboat to Bristol (Pa.). The Committee, on the other 
 hand, had planned that he should cross the bridge over the Delaware at 
 Trenton, and be received by the deputations and military escort at 
 Morrisville (Pa.). The following letter confirms the determination of the 
 latter arrangement, and exhibits the amiable disposition shown by the 
 Marquis in yielding to the solicitations of the citizens of Pennsylvania. 
 The letter is addressed to a member of the Committee of Arrangements 
 at Philadelphia by A. H. Brown, representing the Committee. 
 
 " My dear Sir : 
 
 I have just had a private interview with General (La) Fayette, he says he is 
 ready to carry into full effect any arrangement the Committee have or may make. 
 After hearing our arrangement, he says it is very good, and to him pleasing. He 
 is now gone to dinner and will see me again in the morning, he goes to church 
 tomorrow, in the afternoon visits J. Bonaparte, returns to Trenton in the evening, 
 and will be ready for us on Monday morning at 10 o'clock. I have seen Govr. 
 Williamson, he says he will deliver the General to us on Monday morning at 
 whatever place we may designate. I said, on the line of Pennsylvania, he said, 
 that it would be awkward to the General to change from one carriage to another 
 at the bridge, but would accede to any arrangement we pleased to make. Bispham 
 says our quarters are all prepared, the General is at the same house. 
 
 Yrs truly 
 A. A. Brown. 
 
 Saturday evening 6 o'clock." 
 
 On the journey from Morrisville to Philadelphia on the following 
 Monday, a stop was made at Frankford, where quarters had been pre- 
 
 35 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 pared at the Arsenal for the General's suite. The night was spent there, 
 and on the following morning the Marquis proceeded on his march to 
 Philadelphia. The venerable Judge Peters drove over from Belmont 
 and sat beside him in the carriage. It is not our province to record in 
 detail the incidents of the entry into Philadelphia and of the events that 
 followed. We propose rather to pass to an event linking Sully's name 
 with that of the distinguished guest, and to give some account connected 
 with the splendid full-length portrait that still ornaments the building in 
 which the citizens of Philadelphia paid homage to the former trusted and 
 beloved companion-in-arms of General Washington. An opportunity to 
 have his likeness perpetuated through the genius of Thomas Sully was 
 eagerly seized upon, and on October 2nd the following note was ad- 
 dressed to General Lafayette : 
 
 '• Oct. 2, 1824. 
 Dear Sir : 
 
 A number of our most respectable citizens are desirous of presenting to the 
 city of Philadelphia your portrait by Sully, should you consent to sit for it. This 
 we most respectfully request in their behalf, knowing the very high esteem in 
 which the possession of such a portrait would be held by our fellow-citizens. 
 
 Mr. Sully will consult your own time for the purpose both here and ehe- 
 Imhere. We are, most respectfully, 
 
 Your obd't, 
 
 J. S. Lewis 
 W. Rush 
 J. M. Scott 
 A. A. Brown 
 Jas. Wilmer 
 Benj'n Tilghman," 
 To GeN'l LaFavette. 
 
 It is stated elsewhere that an original study of Lafayette by Sully 
 was executed at this time in Philadelphia. This we are inclined to 
 doubt, and will state our reasons for it. Sully, in his reminiscences, 
 
 36 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 states : " Lafayette I painted from life in Washington for the City of 
 Philadelphia," and adding, " He invited me very cordially to visit him in 
 France." 
 
 In the request made by the Committee that the General should sit 
 to Sully for his portrait, the concluding lines are to the effect that " Mr. 
 Sully will consult your own time for the purpose both here and elsewhere." 
 The note conveying the request to sit to Sully is dated only 3 days be- 
 fore General Lafayette's departure from Philadelphia, which occurred on 
 October 5th, 1824. It is more than likely, therefore, that with the vari- 
 ous engagements and occupations incident to his visit, the General should 
 have preferred to postpone sittings until a time of less stress and demand 
 upon him. It was doubtless with a view of gaining his consent to sit that 
 the Committee worded its request as it did, not making it incumbent 
 upon him to sit at Philadelphia. It seems probable therefore that the 
 study of the head of the Marquis now owned by a gentleman in Philadel- 
 phia,* was painted not at Philadelphia but at Washington, D. C. 
 
 The history of the full-length portrait is well worth reciting, and 
 more especially as the circumstances surrounding it are more clearly as- 
 certained than heretofore. 
 
 Sully's entry in his " Account of Pictures " is to the effect that it 
 was " painted by subscription." He values the painting at |6oo. The 
 writers have been unable to discover any list of subscribers and further 
 researches lead them to suppose that nothing of a formal character was 
 drawn up. It is probable that the Committee had intended soliciting sub- 
 scriptions, but that in some way the plan miscarried. Certain it is that 
 the portrait remained under Sully's control for a number of years after it 
 was finished. That the Committee recognized its responsibility, there is 
 evidence in a balance paid over to Sully from funds left after the ex- 
 penses of the Lafayette Ball. In the account of Henry D. Gilpin, Treas- 
 urer, appears the following entry : 
 
 *Mr. Herbert Welsh. 
 
 37 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 " Investment of Col. Prevost, 
 rec'd back & paid to Mr. Sully, $235.68" 
 
 and the following receipt : 
 
 " 1827, Feby 2ist Rec'd of H. D. Gilpin fifteen dollars and TJ cents, which 
 with $235.68 stock transferred to me on the 4th of Jan'y 
 1827, making together $251.45 is in full of the above balance 
 paid to me by the Managers of the Lafayette Ball, towards 
 the painting of Gen'l Lafayette. 
 
 Thos. Sully." 
 
 Just what the "stock" may have been is not made clear, but as the 
 artist gives his receipt for so much money, the inference would seem to 
 be that it was convertible into cash. This payment of a sum little over 
 $250 is the only evidence of any remuneration having been received by 
 Thomas Sully for the full-length life-size likeness of General Lafayette, 
 now hanging in the Hall of Independence. At a subsequent period he 
 presented the portrait to the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and this 
 institution in the year 1848 and with the artist's consent, passed it over 
 to the City of Philadelphia in exchange for a picture by Benjamin West. 
 
 Of course the Hall of Independence is its appropriate resting place, 
 and both the Academy and the artist were well advised, when arranging 
 for its transfer there. 
 
 It is not surprising to discover evidences of true friendship having 
 been established between the artist and his distinguished sitter ; for we 
 shall find this feeling invariably animating those with whom he had to do. 
 We have already alluded to the invitation given Sully by Lafayette to 
 visit him at La Grange, which the former records himself. In a letter 
 from that place of date January i, 1827, to a correspondent in Washing- 
 ton, the Marquis sends this message: "If Mr. Sully comes to Washing- 
 ton, or when you write, be pleased to mention me very affectionately to 
 him."

 Paints a portrait of Judge Hopkinson for Dartmouth College —

 OF HER ON her VISIT TO THIS COUNTRY WITH HER FATHER, ChARLES 
 
 Kemble — Paints the latter in character. 
 
 WE now approach a period when Sully came to occupy a position of 
 still greater prominence, and to be recognized as the most eminent 
 portrait painter in the United States. The year 1827 had wit- 
 nessed the death of both Gilbert Stuart and Charles Willson Peale. Each 
 of these had continued practising his art almost until the end. Peale had 
 been succeeded by his son Rembrandt, while Stuart left no male descend- 
 ant of his name to succeed him. His daughter Jane studied under him, 
 and made creditable copies of her father's works. His nephew, Gilbert 
 Stuart Newton, painted in England and attained considerable reputation. 
 Henry Inman, born in 1801, was prominent until 1839, while his eccen- 
 tric but distinguished instructor, John Wesley Jarvis, died in that year. 
 Other names survived, — Trumbull and Vanderlyn, living respectively 
 down to 1843 and 1852. But Trumbull, living to a great age, was an 
 octogenarian when Sully was but in middle life, and Vanderlyn passed 
 much of his time abroad. John Neagle, in Philadelphia, who had married 
 Sully's stepdaughter Mary, was recognized as a painter of great merit, 
 but he never gained the vogue enjoyed by Sully. And so our artist's 
 gifts as a portrait painter came to be adjudged superior to any of his 
 contemporaries. 
 
 Thus, the authorities of Dartmouth College, when requesting Judge 
 Joseph Hopkinson to sit for his portrait, pass a resolution reciting as 
 follows : 
 
 39 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 " Whereas Steuart (Stuart) has died since the original vote (of Dartmouth 
 College) was passed and whereas Sully is believed in this section of the United 
 States to be unsurpassed by any living artist within reach, I therefore now re- 
 spectfully inquire — if you will permit the College by their Agent to employ Mr. 
 Sully to paint your portrait. 
 
 Geo. C. Shattuck. 
 
 Boston, Jan'y 4th, 1835." 
 
 This same year witnessed his election to membership in the Ameri- 
 can Philosophical Society. The form of proposal and the names attached 
 to it speak for themselves : 
 
 "The undersigned beg leave to recommend as a member of the Society, 
 Thos. Sully, Esq., one of the most distinguished painters of the United States. 
 
 CONDY RAGUET 
 
 C. N. Bancker 
 S. V. Merrick 
 Henry C. Carey 
 Hartman T. Bache 
 Ch. D. Meigs 
 [Judge] J. K. Kane 
 
 John Vaughan 
 
 Alex. Dallas Bache" 
 
 We shall find that not very long after this the most important com- 
 mission probably of his career was to follow, and that the painting of the 
 young Queen Victoria, from life sittings, marked a summit to his fame, 
 as well as a lasting memorial of his genius. It seems appropriate, and 
 forms a gratifying reflection, that our city is happily linked with this 
 highwater-mark of Sully's genius, through the possession of the portrait 
 by the Society in Philadelphia for whom the commission was originally 
 executed. 
 
 So, when, a short time before, the Kembles, father and daughter, 
 arrived on our shores (1832), and came to Philadelphia, it was only 
 
 40 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 natural that Sully's brush should be the one invoked to paint their por- 
 traits. Fanny Kemble, in her lively and witty "Recollections", tells of 
 sitting to Sully, and of the sympathetic relations established between the 
 artist and herself. Writing two or three years later from the United 
 States to an intimate friend in England, she comments on his amiability 
 and high sense of honor : 
 
 "Branchtown [near Philadelphia], May 27TH, 1835. 
 
 Dearest H .• * 
 
 ..." I am extremely vexed at all the trouble you and Emily have taken 
 about my picture, for the artist himself, (Mr. Sully of Philadelphia) is not satis- 
 fled with it himself, and I am sure would be rather sorry than glad that it was ex- 
 hibited. That artist is a charming person, and I must tell you how he proceeded 
 about that picture. When your letter came, acknowledging the receipt of it, he 
 asked how you were satisfied. I told him the truth, and what you had written on 
 the subject of the likeness. He did not appear stupidly annoyed, but sorry for 
 your disappointment, and told me that he had been from the first dissatisfied with 
 it as a likeness himself. He pressed upon my acceptance for you, a little melan- 
 choly head of me, an admirable and not too much flattered likeness ; but as he 
 had given that to his wife, of whom I am very fond, of course I could not de- 
 prive her of it, and there the matter rested. But when, some time after some 
 pictures he had painted for us were paid for, he steadfastly refused the price 
 agreed upon for yours, because it had not satisfied him himself. He said that 
 had you been even less pleased with it, he should not therefore have refused the 
 money, but his own conscience, he added, bore witness to the truth of your objec- 
 tions, and when that was the case, he invariably acted in the same way and de- 
 clined to receive payment for what he didn't consider worth it. As he is our 
 friend, we could not press the money upon him, but we have got him to under- 
 take a portrait of Dr. Mease,t and I have added several grains more to my regard 
 for him. As to the likeness, had you seen me about three months after my mar- 
 riage you would have thought better of it." 
 
 * Harriet St. Leger (pronounced Sellenger !) 
 
 t Father of Pierce Butler, who married Fanny Kemble, and a man of distinction in 
 the Philadelphia of that day. 
 
 41 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 In printing this letter Mrs. Kemble comments as follows : 
 
 " The portrait in question painted for my friend, and now I believe still at 
 Ardgillan Castle, was one of six painted of me at various times, the best likeness 
 of them all being one that he took of me in the part of Beatrice, for which I did 
 not sit." 
 
 Three years later, when addressing the same correspondent, Mrs. 
 Kemble writes : 
 
 " Touching my picture, my dearest Harriet, I am desired to say that your 
 spirited defence of your right to it (whether you like it or not) is admirable, that 
 it certainly shall not be taken from you by force, and that there was no intention 
 whatever of infuriating you by the civil proposal that was made to relieve you of 
 it, by sending you a more satisfactory one, under the impression that you are not 
 satisfied with what you have. . . . Sully is now in England. I wish there were 
 any chance of your seeing him, but after remaining there long enough to paint 
 The Queen, he intends visiting Paris for a short time and then returning home.* 
 He is a great friend of mine, and one of the few people here that I find pleasure 
 in associating with. As his delicacy about being paid for the picture arose from 
 the idea that, not being satisfied with the likeness, you probably did not care to 
 keep it, I have no doubt that, the present state of your regard for it being made 
 clear to him, he will not object any more to receiving the price of it. 
 
 "Phila., Saturday, March i8, 1838." 
 
 The portrait of Fanny Kemble in the character of " Beatrice ", 
 hanging at the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, and the one that 
 she herself preferred to any other of Sully's, reflects all the charm and 
 animation that descriptions of her have sought to convey. 
 
 " Ever since Fanny Kemble burst upon the world at the age of twenty she 
 
 * If there was no meeting with Miss St. Leger, the " dearest Harriet " in the coire- 
 spondence (which we think there must have been), another friend was more fortunate, for 
 in a letter to " Mrs. Jameson" in London, written from Philadelphia May twenty-seventh, 
 1838, occurs : " I am glad you like Sully, because I love him."

 has been an object of interest to the English Race in both hemispheres. . . . 
 Mts. Kemble lacked the stature and perfect symmetry of Mrs. Siddons, but she 
 had the noble head, the effulgent eyes, the sensitive mouth and flexible nostrils, 
 the musical voice, the dignified and graceful gestures, which distinguished her 
 Aunt; and in addition, the sense of humor, the mobile temperament quick as 
 flame, the poetic sensibility, which characterized her mother." 
 
 So wrote a gentleman in Boston,* recalling the impressions of his 
 youth. 
 
 At the time of her American d6but she was just 23 years of age. 
 She notes it in a letter to her intimate friend, Miss St. Leger : 
 
 " Thursday, Nov. 27th. 
 " This is my birthday — In England always one of the gloomiest days of this 
 gloomy month ; here my windows are all open and the warm sun streaming in. 
 ... I am to-day three and twenty. Where is my life gone to ? As the child 
 said, " Where does the light go when the candle is out? . . ." 
 
 She seemed to hold a fascination for both young and old. Daniel 
 Webster, writing from Washington to an intimate friend, adds a post- 
 scriptum to this effect : 
 
 " Fanny Kemble is here, turning everybody's head. I went to see and hear 
 her, last Eve', and paid for it by a tremendous cold. I hear that the Venerable 
 Judges go constantly." 
 
 And in confirmation we find Judge Story writing his wife : 
 
 " We have had little to do this week in Court. . . . Having some leisure on 
 our hands, the Chief Justice and myself have devoted some of it to attendance 
 upon the theatre to hear Miss Fannie Kemble, who has been in this City the past 
 week." 
 
 A play that she often appeared in, and with which the American

 tour was opened, was Milman's "Fazio", in which her father usually 
 took the title part. Sully painted him in the character, and this portrait 
 also hangs in the Academy. She herself depicted " Bianca," and her 
 grave and anxious air in the picture from Sully's brush forms a striking 
 foil to her smiling and arch "Beatrice." In England, when appearing 
 in the play, she writes of it : 
 
 " Next Wednesday week I am to come out in Bianca, in Milman's ' Fazio.' 
 Do you know the play? It is very powerful, and my part is a very powerful one 
 indeed. I have hopes it may succeed greatly. Mr. Warde is to be my Fazio, 
 for, I hear, people object to my having my father's constant support, and wish to 
 see me act alone ; what geese, to be sure — I wonder whether they think my father 
 has hold of strings by the means of which he moves my arms and legs ". 
 
 And on her American tour she writes of the character : 
 
 " ' Bianca,' which they have everywhere chosen for my opening part ; and it 
 is a good one for that purpose, as I generally act and look well in it and it is the 
 sort of play that all sorts of people can comprehend." 
 
 John Sartain [the noted engraver], in his "Reminiscences, "* men- 
 tions having been present in Sully's studio when Charles Kemble sat to 
 him for the portrait of " Fazio." 
 
 " I was introduced to Mr. Kemble in Sully's painting-room, going there by 
 appointment for the purpose. When the sitting was over, Mr. Kemble stepped 
 down from the raised platform and, looking at the picture, remarked that the face 
 appeared large. Sully said, ' You have a large face.' To which Kemble replied, 
 ' Fortunate for me — in my profession.' " 
 
 We find an echo of this pronouncement in Ellen Terry's " Story of 
 her Life," where she exclaims, " Once more I reflect that a face is the 
 chiefest equipment of the actor."

 Dr. Johnson, in speaking of David Garrick at Mrs. Thrale's house, 
 is quoted as saying, " David, Madam, looks much older than he is ; for 
 his face has had double the business of any other man's ; it is never at 
 rest ; when he speaks one minute he has quite a different countenance to 
 what he assumes the next ; I don't believe he ever kept the same look 
 for half an hour together in the whole course of his life ; and such an 
 eternal restless fatiguing play of the muscles must certainly wear out a 
 man's face before its real time." 
 
 Charles Kemble spoke from a long experience, when making his 
 semi-playful retort to Sully: "These 'counterfeit presentments' of the 
 Kembles, father and daughter, arrest the eye of the visitor to the gallery 
 of portraits at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts, and recall their 
 early triumphs here in Philadelphia."

 IN the full plenitude of his powers, Sully determined to revisit 
 England. Twenty-seven years had elapsed since his experiences as a 
 student in London. Great changes had naturally come about in the 
 English art world. Benjamin West had long since been laid to rest 
 under the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral.* Raeburn, the great Scotch 
 painter, was no more ; f and only a few years preceding the time of 
 which we write Sir Jhomas Lawrence had been suddenly carried off, J 
 when it was reasonable to suppose that a decade at least remained to 
 him for the practice of his art. Sully may possibly have felt that the 
 time was peculiarly propitious for an artist of established reputation to 
 try his fortune at the English capital. Without scrutinizing closely the 
 list of native English painters of that period, it can be safely advanced 
 that beyond one or two names in the field of portraiture, that branch of 
 painting lacked votaries of marked distinction. 
 
 On the eve of his proposed voyage, the reputation Sully had already 
 acquired was significantly confirmed through his selection to paint a por- 
 trait of the young Queen Victoria, who had just succeeded to the English

 throne. The Society of the Sons of St. George in Philadelphia, learning 
 of our artist's intended visit to England, adopted the resolution "to 
 memorialize her Majesty to sit for her picture to Mr. Sully for the gratifi- 
 cation and use of the Society." The memorial was couched in most 
 flattering terms towards our artist, reciting as it did: "We have been 
 induced thus to petition your Majesty in consequence of the contem- 
 plated departure of Thomas Sully, Esq., for England, whom we beg 
 leave to recommend to your Majesty as the most finished artist in por- 
 traits in America, who would do ample justice to your picture, and who 
 combines in himself the various recommendations of being an English- 
 man by birth, an accomplished artist and a gentleman." 
 
 The generally received opinion has been that Sully went to England 
 for no other purpose than the painting of the Queen's portrait. It will 
 be noticed that the trip had been determined upon previously to the com- 
 mission from the St. George Society. 
 
 Our artist was not to travel alone, for after discussion in the home 
 circle it was decided that his daughter Blanche should accompany him. 
 It was a natural choice, for she had ever been his close companion, ac- 
 companying him in his walks and rambles about the city and its environs, 
 and her father on that account facetiously used to call her his "walking- 
 stick". We shall find Blanche playing an important part in Sully's Eng- 
 lish surroundings and contributing in no small degree towards the suc- 
 cess of her father's mission abroad. 
 
 "Poulson's Advertiser" of Octobers, 1837, alludes to our artist's 
 approaching departure: "We understand that our distinguished fellow 
 citizen, Mr. Sully, the artist, is about to visit Europe, having been called 
 thither to paint several portraits of eminent men." We think our modern 
 journalists would have been more alert in ascertaining and noting the 
 commission for the Queen's portrait. On the eve of Sully's departure, 
 friends and admirers in Philadelphia, opened a subscription paper "for 
 the purchase of a memorial of respect and friendship to be presented to 
 Mr. Sully." A sum approximating $300 was promptly raised, Mr. John

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Just before the date fixed for sailing, our artist's younger son, 
 Alfred, born in 182 1,* received an appointment to West Point, and the 
 father's pleasure is shown in the following letter, addressed to the then 
 Secretary of War, with whom he was on particularly friendly terms : 
 
 " To Honorable Joel Poinsett : " 
 Dear Sir : 
 
 I have taken passage with my daughter for London and am to sail on 
 the loth inst. from New York. 
 
 I cannot leave home without the gratification of returning you my grateful 
 thanks for your kindness in appointing my son on trial as a cadet at West Point. 
 I hope his future good conduct will prove his gratitude for the privilege. 
 I pray God bless and prosper you. 
 
 Very sincerely your friend and obliged 
 humble S'v't 
 
 Thos. Sully. 
 Philada., Oct. 2, 1837." 
 
 With these fresh evidences of friendship and regard from his fellow 
 townsmen, and the notification of his son's appointment as a cadet at 
 West Point, it must have been in a happy frame of mind that Sully em- 
 barked with his daughter on his English pilgrimage. 
 
 Enroute to New York to embark, Blanche in a farewell note to her 
 mother writes : "but before I close this epistle let me tell you we had 
 the satisfaction of having a shake of Horace Binney's hand at the wharf 
 in Burlington, and moreover of seeing Mr. Carey running down the 
 Main Street after our boat had left the wharf" 
 
 In after letters written by Blanche Sully and her father, incidents of 
 the voyage are related, and references made to some of the passengers 
 on board the ship " Quebec," Captain Hebard. 
 
 * Was graduated at West Point in 1841, and served with much distinction. At the 
 close of the Civil War, in which he fought, was brevetted Maj. Genl. of Volunteers and 
 Brigadier Genl. in the regular army. " Fort Sully " established in Dakota Territory in 
 1866 was named for him.

 They liked both the ship and the captain, so much so, that their 
 minds were set upon returning in the same vessel if possible.* 
 
 Two days before entering the British Channel the ship encountered 
 a heavy gale, but on Nov. ist, Sully was able to write his wife : " We are 
 at this moment gliding calmly by the Isle of Wight and the mainland — 
 we have a noble vessel and a complete Captain ; I wish we could return 
 with him — Blanche is a noble and brave girl ; but Oh ! how she has 
 suffered with seasickness (for the first week) — we have had pleasant 
 passengers and many we hope to see again." 
 
 The next day (Nov. 2nd) Blanche writes : " This morning immedi- 
 ately after our breakfast we assembled our baggage, put it on board the 
 Pilot-Boat and were off before 10 o'clock. — At twelve got into the Stage 
 for London." She describes the beauty of the scenery, stopping at Guil- 
 ford in the evening for dinner, falling asleep and then "I found rtiyself 
 rumbling over stones — 'twas London ! — think of it. I thought I was 
 dreaming — but no, the noise and bustle soon convinced me to the con- 
 trary — at nine arrived at a splendid hotel called Hatchett's, — took us up 
 stairs into a handsome drawing room — had a fire and by ten another 
 waiter in full dress brought us our tea in great style." 
 
 They did not settle themselves at the later address in Marlborough 
 Street until towards the end of the month, for through the medium of that 
 invaluable record which Sully kept we find under date of Nov. 29th 
 (1837) the following entry: "Bust, Miss E, Bates, painted in London at 
 46 G. Marlborough St." This lady, born June 25, 1820 and christened 
 Elizabeth Anne, was the daughter of Mr. Joshua Bates and his wife 
 Lucretia Sturgis.f Mr. Bates, the father, came from Wareham, Mass., 
 and was for many years a partner in the banking house of Baring Bros. 
 — this daughter Elizabeth was married in England to Sylvain van der

 Rooms on the " Quebec " for return trip in August,

 Weyer, then Belgian Minister to England, in 1838. Blanche Sully writ- 
 ing from London to her family, communicates " In the evening dressed 
 and went to Mrs. Bates' was introduced to the Belgian Minister, with his 
 star and garter (?), by the way he has the handsomest legs I ever 
 saw." (!) Other entries of portraits painted follow the one of Miss Bates 
 showing that Sully was not idle but employing his time while awaiting 
 the hoped-for opportunity to paint the Queen's portrait from life. 
 
 The Memorial drawn up by the St. George's Society had been 
 sealed and delivered into Sully's hands ; but when he made application to 
 our Embassy in London for its presentation, he discovered that royal and 
 diplomatic usages forbade the delivery of or receiving of a sealed com- 
 munication into the hands of the Queen or her representative. Here 
 was a dilemma ! Fortunately, our artist had in some way provided him- 
 self with a copy of the sealed paper,* and this the American Minister, 
 readily undertook to transmit. It was on Dec. 28th or almost two 
 months following our traveler's arrival in England that notice of a favor- 
 able reply to the solicitation embodied in the Memorial of the St. George's 
 Society came to hand. On that day Blanche wrote to her family : 
 " (Thursday) Mr. Jaudon took his first sitting — soon after he went, in 
 popped Mr. Stevenson (U. S. Minister to Court of St. James) to inform 
 us of good news ! ! ! The Queen consents to sit most willingly — ^think 
 of that! The news came through Lord Melbourne. She is now at 
 Windsor Castle passing the Christmas holidays . . . and as soon as she 
 comes to town she sends word that she'll gratify Mr. Sully." 
 
 The intimation received through Lord Melbourne's note was that 
 the first sitting would be granted "in the middle of February" (1838). 
 We find Sully writing his daughter Jane (Mrs. Darley) under date of 
 Feb. 14th : "I have kept this letter open in hope to tell you at its close, 
 that I had begun the Queen's portrait but the day is not yet fixed until 
 
 * Sully writes his wife from London in November : "Tell Mr. Sill it was fortunate that 
 he gave me a Copy of the Memorial as otherwise the oiie intended for the Queen could not 
 have been received, as it was sealed.''^

 after the ' Drawing-Room ' but I am told it will be arranged this month " 
 {February). 
 
 As will appear later, the first sitting actually did not take place until 
 more than a month after this was written, i. e., on March 22nd (1838). 
 
 A glance at Victoria's occupations and correspondence at this period 
 will show the demands upon her time, and at the very moment that our 
 artist was endeavoring to obtain sittings, active preparations had begun 
 for the grand ceremony of her coronation, which took place in the June 
 following. But in this matter of obtaining sittings let the artist recount 
 his own story.* 
 
 " After I had almost despaired of being able to obtain a sitting, my friend 
 Lord Francis Egerton secured Lord Palmerston's f influence in my behalf. I 
 called early one day on the latter ; he had just turned out of his bed and was sip- 
 ping his morning coffee. ' Everything is being arranged,' he said. ' The Queen 
 will sit to-day at ten.' I found him a delightful person, who reminded me of 
 Henry Clay in his manners. A painting room was arranged for my accommoda- 
 tion in Buckinghan Palace. . . . The Queen came to the sittings with her Secre- 
 tary, Baroness Lehtzen. She (the Queen) was very affable, like a well-bred lady 
 of Philadelphia or Boston and used to talk about different things. I told her I 
 would get my daughter to sit with the Regalia, if there would be no impropriety^ 
 in order to save her the trouble. ' Oh, no, no impropriety,' replied Victoria, 
 ' but don't spare me ; if I can be of service, I will sit.' After that my daughter 
 sat with the Regalia, which weighed thirty or forty pounds. The earrings had to 
 be tied with a loop, as I had not allowed her ears to be pierced. One day the 
 Queen sent word that she would come in if my daughter would remain where she 
 was. But of course Blanche stepped down, and the two girls, who were almost 
 the same age, chatted together quite familiarly. . . . Her mouth was always a 
 little open — probably owing to a shortness of the upper lip — and thus I painted 
 
 *" Hours at Home," Vol. X [Nov., 1869 to April, 1870]. 
 
 t We think Lord Melbourne is intended. He was very close to the young Queen, 
 and she was guided by his advice and knowledge of her duties, in this early stage of her 
 career. It was Lord Melbourne who signified Victoria's willingness to sit for her portrait 
 to Sully ; communicated through our Minister Mr. Stevenson.

 it. But the upper part of her face was very fine, and her eyes, although pro- 
 tuberant, were beautiful. . . ." 
 
 The foregoing appeared when Thomas Sully was a very old man, 
 and while his memory seems to have served him well, we think our 
 readers will enjoy the account of two sittings desciibed by our artist 
 himself in letters to his family, and written at the actual time when the 
 sittings were taking place : 
 
 " Monday (April) 2nd. One o'clock. 
 
 Have just returned from the Palace, and sit down to write you all about it, 
 ... At nine I received a note from the Baroness Lehzen to say Her Majesty 
 had commanded her to acquaint me that she would give me a sitting at eleven 
 o'clock. I answered by the Page in a note that I should be there at ten to pre- 
 pare myself. Changed my dress and reached the Palace at ten, via cab. I found 
 my way without help to my quarters in the Palace, set my Palette and all in apple- 
 pie order long before the Queen entered with the Baroness and a pet dog — a Re- 
 publican dog ! so independent in his taste, that he turned a deaf ear to the Sover- 
 eign of England when she called the audacious animal to her, in the most endear- 
 ing terms — and when the whim took him would mount the throne and lay his 
 head in her lap to be fondled ! Two ladies entered by request and that the con- 
 versation between them and the Queen might not divert her from the proper 
 position, they were seated according to my wish close to my right. " Am I seated 
 properly " said the Queen — " Yes " — I replied " but I am not " — so I removed 
 my easel. The Tiara that her Majesty had put on was of the most suitable shape 
 and proportions, and she seemed pleased with my approval and its reason. 
 
 " Pray Mr. Sully what have you on that other canvass? " — (the black canvass 
 I had brought to cover my sketch) . The Baroness enquired how it was that Sat- 
 urday had not been used : " Did I not say that we should expect you then ? " I 
 reminded her that I was to wait until I heard from her the pleasure of the Queen. 
 
 " Oh ! then I am quite in fault, but the Queen waited for you ever so long." 
 Her Majesty laughed playfully and good naturedly at the blunder — Thought I, 
 turn about is fair play — I too have been twice disappointed.* ( !) 
 
 * Sully here alludes to two postponed sittings after appointments fixed and attendance 
 on his part at Buckingham Palace. 
 
 53 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 In her conversation with the ladies, I had a rare opportunity of seeing The 
 Queen throw off all constraint and talk and laugh like a happy girl of thirteen, 
 long ! long ! may she have that light and happy heart. 
 
 In speaking of some lady's personal beauty she used an odd application of 
 term : " very clever eyes." She asked if they knew who was to be presented 
 next Levee. ..." I cannot give you more than three quarters of an hour this 
 morning Mr. Sully — but on Wednesday I will give you a good long sitting." So 
 I bowed and the Queen left her Chair to look at what I had done. So did the 
 rest — I begged their candid remarks, and I must be allowed to say that they 
 warmly approved my beginning ; particularly the mouth which is a nice point to 
 achieve in her portrait. When the Queen and the Baroness had left the Room 
 the ladies remained to look at the picture, and at my earnest request said that 
 the face was rather full and the shadow under the lip rather strong. Put away 
 my things and after some difficulty reached the door of exit — walked directly 
 home and after washing my pencils have written you this long yarn." 
 
 "Wednesday 4th (April). 
 
 4 o'clock — just returned from Buckingham Palace and I sit down to tell you 
 how I got on. 
 
 On entering the Palace, I met the Baroness in going to my room ; I told her 
 I had come thus early to get ready — " Quite right " said she, and directed a Page 
 to accompany me. The fire was not kindled nor the room in order, but all was 
 done like magic. In fixing the throne I placed the curtain here and there until 
 I had fixed on the best position for light and shade. Got everything ready and at 
 near 12 Her Majesty entered, attended by the same company — ascended the steps — 
 placed her feet in the foot-muff and observed that I had changed the position — 
 so I explained. She is a good sitter, and continues the same affable and unre- 
 strained manner. But altho she said much to the Ladies and her Secretary the 
 Baroness, I don't remember any remarkable observation. If one might judge by 
 the manner I should conclude that in governing, she will have much her own 
 way. (!) A Page announced the visit of Sir D(avid) Wilkie with his picture of 
 her Majesty's first Council — but he had to wait at least half an hour until my 
 sitting was over. She descended the throne and came 'round and looked at the 
 picture and seemed satisfied. As she approached the door I advanced and 
 opened it, and the next ; this I thought I might be allowed, altho' I would not 
 
 54 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 presume to offer any aid in taking or leaving the chair — yet after all she is not a 
 person to be offended with a well-timed and respectful courtesy tho' offered by 
 one not privileged. The Baroness afterward brought me the Royal Crown to 
 paint from, and it kept me busy until past three. She requested when I had 
 done to ring for a Page and send (it) to her as it was her particular care to keep 
 the jewels of the Crown and she would not have anyone meddle with it. . . . 
 The Crown being disposed of, and an appointment made for next Saturday, I 
 left the Palace." 
 
 The formal description and title of the painting is to this effect : 
 " Portrait of Her Majesty The Queen in her robes of state ascending 
 the throne in the House of Lords ", and this attitude the Philadelphia 
 picture most graphically and gracefully portrays. Sully's daughter 
 Blanche, whose connection with the sittings has been described, related 
 after her father's death that "in response to an inquiry from the Queen 
 why Mr. Sully had painted her ascending the throne instead of seated 
 upon it, he replied that she was too short of stature ; that had she been 
 seated, the draperies would have spoiled the whole effect," 
 
 This was a brave statement of fact, as well as an artistic truth ; and 
 the Queen appears to have had too much native good sense to be 
 offended by the reference to her lack of inches.* In fact, Blanche Sully 
 added that " it evidently pleased her, for she presented the artist with 
 two of her autographs." 
 
 Of all the various portraits of The Queen painted at the period of 
 this picture or within a few years of it, none, to the writer's mind, con- 
 veys an equal queenly grace. Sully's portrayal, without derogating 
 from the dignity expected in the heiress of the British throne, invests the 
 figure with a certain youthful charm of expression that at once enlists 
 sympathy and admiration. Her letters at this time to her uncle, King 
 
 * That the Queen was not blind to her deficiency in height is made manifest by an 
 
 entry in her Journal : " I lamented my being so short, which Lord M. smiled at, and 
 
 thought no misfortune." ("Girlhood of Queen Victoria." Conversation with Lord 
 Melbourne at about the date of Sully's visit.) 
 
 55 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Leopold of Belgium, reveal a warm and affectionate nature. " My be- 
 loved Uncle," "My dearest Uncle," are her invariable forms in address- 
 ing him ; and as showing the affection she inspired in him, he addressed 
 her as " My dearest and most beloved Victoria ". It is the reflection of 
 such a nature that Sully has succeeded so admirably in getting on his 
 canvas. What has been written of his art by Tuckerman is brought to 
 mind. "His organization fits him to sympathize with the fair and lovely, 
 rather than the grand and comic. — Sully's forte is the graceful." 
 
 Letters written from home exhibit the interest with which our artist's 
 family followed his fortunes abroad. Thomas Sully, Jr.,* his eldest son, 
 then painting portraits himself, writes his sister Blanche : 
 
 " I hope now you have both of you been long enough in London to feel less 
 homesick, the first 3 months away is the worst part of it. I should like to know 
 what father is doing. ... I hope father will paint the Queen." 
 
 This was written from Philadelphia on February i, 1838, and under 
 this date young Sully adds, "and a very cold day." 
 In April he writes her again : 
 
 " Do not hurry home. I hope father will finish the Queen's picture com- 
 pletely in London, to show it there ; if living in London has cost him so much, 
 one month more will not hurt him ; when of course he is aware of the great bene- 
 fit it will hereafter be to him, as I know that his picture will be the best of them. 
 Robes again I say. Tell him to excuse my impertinence." 
 
 The question of costume (robes) here hinted at is emphasized in a 
 letter addressed to his father in the same month : 
 
 *Thomas Wilcocks Sully, commonly called "Thomas Sully, Jr.," was born January 
 3rd, 181 1, in Philadelphia and followed his father's profession. He painted with a good 
 deal of ability and had as sitters a number of well-known actors : Wm. E. Burton as Bob 
 Acres; Edwin S.Conner as Romeo; Edwin Forrest, and Robert C. May wood as Tam 
 O'Shanter were among these. His father was very much attached to him all through his 
 life and did everything possible to encourage him. His health gave way, and he died 
 when in his 36th year. Sully's " Boy with a Torn Hat " (in the Boston Museum) is a 
 likeness of him when 10 years of age.

 " I hope you will paint the Queen and in her robes, of course, for it will do 
 for a portrait of anybody without them, and we are not used to seeing such things 
 here." 
 
 These are the only intimations found that any consideration had ever 
 been given to any different style of portrait than the one Sully actually 
 painted. The subject might have been discussed en famille, but we 
 doubt whether any other form of portrait than the one adopted and car- 
 ried out had ever formed itself in our artist's mind. The head painted of 
 the Queen and now hanging at the Metropolitan Museum in New York 
 City, was begun on March 22nd and completed on May 15th. (From 
 this portrait all the others were produced.) The length of time for its 
 painting is explained by the difficulty encountered for sittings in regular 
 sequence. A hurried note from the Queen's Secretary, given below, 
 throws light on the situation : 
 
 " Monday. 
 " The Baroness Lehtzen presents her compliments to Mr. Sully and hastens 
 to inform him that her Majesty will give Mr. Sully a sitting &t j4 p. 12 to-day. 
 "The note she had written on Saturday was unfortunately not delivered." 
 
 The word " immediate " appears with the address of " Sully, Esq., 
 46 Gt. Marlborough St." 
 
 To a man of methodical habits, it must have proved something of a 
 trial to receive but an hour or two's notice for so important an appoint- 
 ment. Social civilities were not wanting ; we find among some Sully 
 family papers an invitation addressed : 
 
 " Mr. Sully,

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 Sully when writing to his wife describes this entertainment : 
 
 " At eleven I took a cab and was put down at Bridgewater House. You ap- 
 proach it as to Head's Hotel in 3rd Street — it recedes from the street with the 
 same arrangement for carriages. Two servants assisted me out, and the pave- 
 ment and portico were carpeted. I passed through a regiment of servants to the 
 attiring room, and from thence up the grand stairway — my name traveling before 
 me from attendant to attendant — Ushered into the Reception Room I soon 
 selected the hostess Lady Egerton and made my bow — her reception of me was 
 most cordial and polite. (Mrs. Rogers formerly Miss Fairman will give you 
 some idea of her face, person and manner.) Lord E(gerton) came up and wel- 
 comed me, and I then strolled through the rooms to gaze upon the crowd of 
 visitors ; and soon discovered that I was rubbing elbows (with) against the nobles 
 of the land ! Princes of the blood, Dukes, Duchesses, and Lords in numbers. 
 Now and then Lord E would join me and point out some remarkable person- 
 ages — ' That is the Duke of Wellington, those two ladies to your right the Duchess 
 of Cambridge and of Cumberland — Sir Robert Peel, Lord Brougham — Dacres — 
 Duke of Sussex, etc., etc' During the evening I was frequently pressed close to 
 Wellington and could follow his conversation — His portraits are generally like — 
 but they make him appear too old. There were some beautiful women there, 
 and as there were many, I think, I might venture to give an. opinion on the com- 
 parative beauty of the females of the two countries and I should decide that in 
 Phila. we surpass them in face, form and grace. 
 
 The immense gallery and five other rooms were thrown open and by twelve 
 o'clock I should judge that there were three hundred persons there — I wish I 
 were able to give you a description of the dresses — I thought them gorgeous and 
 becoming, but those of black velvet pleased me most. Feathers, turbans and 
 diamonds in profusion. 
 
 Lady E frequently engaged me in conversation about Fanny Butler to 
 
 whom she seems much attached." 
 
 An invitation to dine at Bridgewater House followed the attendance 
 at the Reception.

 " Lord and Lady Francis Egerton 
 request the honor of 
 
 Mr. Sully's 
 Company at Dinner 
 On Monday, March 12, % past 7 o'clock." 
 
 Of this entertainment Sully writes to his family : 
 
 "When about to be seated at the dinner table Lady Egerton called me 
 'round to her side and I found myself installed between her Ladyship and another 
 fine-looking woman, full of delightful conversation, so that between the two I 
 quite neglected dining." A Mr. Babbage well known to science dined with us — 
 At table Lady E. bent her head close to mine, and said in a mysterious manner: 
 " Perhaps I know more of your movements in London than you dream of " — I 
 thanked her for the honor done me — " I received a note from you addressed to 
 Lady Dacre, and that Lady has received one intended for me — we compared 
 notes and found all was right and I learn you are to dine with them next Satur- 
 day ! " — One of my usual blunders you perceive in addressing a note to the 
 wrong person. 
 
 The Garrick Club opened its doors to the visiting artist, electing him 
 an Honorary Member in December, "for the ensuing three months." * 
 
 * On his return to the United States, Sully paid his acknowledgments by painting and 
 presenting a portrait of Edwin Forrest to the Club. The following letter attests the Club's 
 appreciation : 
 
 " Garrick Club, London, 
 14 April, 1840. 
 '' Sir: 
 
 I am desired by the Committee of the Garrick Club to offer you their best acknowl- 
 edgments for your very handsome present of a portrait of Mr. Edwin Forrest. They also 
 desire me to express the great gratification you have afforded them of adding to their col- 
 lection the work of so eminent an artist. I have the honour to be, 
 
 Sir, 
 Your very obedient servant, 
 
 W. Winston, Sec'y. 
 To Thos. Sully, Esq.

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Apropos of the social side of life, young Sully, in a letter to his 
 father, writes : 
 
 "It is a pity Fanny Butler was not in London when you got there, for 
 Blanche's sake, however, she appears to be very well engaged visiting, but might 
 have shared your treat with you amongst the nobility with Fanny's aid." 
 
 After completing the head of the Queen, Sully immediately began, 
 and finished shortly, the very beautiful three-quarter or " Bishop's half- 
 length " for Hodgson & Graves, from which a very charming engraving 
 was produced. This portrait now hangs on the walls of Hertford House 
 (Wallace Collection), having been purchased by Lord Hertford at 
 Christie's Auction Rooms in June, 1855.* I* bears the distinction of 
 being the single example of the "American School " contained in this 
 justly celebrated collection of pictures and art objects. A copy made 
 from it is said to hang at Windsor Castle. 
 
 This three-quarter length portrait evidently came under notice of 
 the Queen, for Richard Hodgson, of the engraving firm, writes from 
 
 " 6 Pall Mall, Saturday. 
 " My dear sir : 
 
 The Queen was pleased with your picture, but said, ' She expected to have 
 seen you again before you left England,' and if you like even now to postpone 
 your departure, you could, I dare say, see her on Monday, as the picture is to 
 remain at the Palace till Monday; this, however, you must do as you think best; 
 all I shall require is to have the benefit of the autograph until your return, as 
 she declined giving her name by stating that you had it already. ... I enclose 
 you a letter for Messrs. Goupil of Paris, but unfortunately Mr. Graves has gone 
 home without writing the letter for Brussels, but if you have made up your mind 
 to go there, just let me know, and I will send it to you in Paris, and I am 
 
 My dear Sir, 
 
 Very Truly Yours, 
 
 Richard Hodgson.

 P. S. — As the Autograph is really of great importance, pray be so kind as 
 to leave it out and Mr. F. Graves will call for it on Monday morning. 
 
 Yrs, R. H." 
 
 This refers to the autograph given Sully during the painting of the 
 head portrait. 
 
 These two likenesses by Sully of the Queen, viz : the head on a 
 canvas of "kit-cat" size, from life sittings, and the three-quarter length 
 (Bishop's half-length), just described, were the only ones executed in 
 England. The full-length for the St. George's Society was painted at 
 his studio on Fifth Street, Philadelphia, where he began it following his 
 return on September thirtieth, and finished it on January fourteenth, 1839. 
 
 Before the Queen's sittings had been arranged for. Sully, en attend- 
 ant, painted four portraits in London. One of these was the likeness of 
 Samuel Jaudon, at that time representing the United States Bank under 
 its Pennsylvania state charter, in London. He also made copies of the 
 celebrated " Strawberry Girl " and the " Girl and Bird ", both after Rey- 
 nolds, from the originals owned by the poet Rogers. 
 
 The three-quarter length portrait of Victoria, painted for Hodgson & 
 Graves, was finished on June twenty-fourth. It is probable, therefore, 
 that the Hodgson letter, referring to the portrait being at Buckingham 
 Palace, was written a few days following that date, and on the eve of 
 Sully's departure for Paris. 
 
 In the following month he has crossed over to France and guided by 
 his " Notes " we find him in Paris at the Louvre on July 6th, and com- 
 menting as follows : "In my first superficial view of the Louvre I was 
 much impressed with the advantage of good color. I could not avoid be- 
 ing most attracted by Rubens notwithstanding his grossness," and when 
 at the Luxembourg — "The Luxembourg Palace has a gallery where 
 specimens of the best French artists are placed. In these works I found 
 great excellence and even when they fail to please it is not through their 
 deficiency in Art, but too great anxiety to show their knowledge." (!) 
 
 61 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 (A shrewd piece of criticism on Sully's part.) "Horace Vernet however 
 rises superior to all trammels. He is a great painter and cultivating as 
 he does the highest walk of Art I consider him according to my experi- 
 ence unrivalled. De La Roche comes next to him but is not so good a 
 colorist. The French artists are accomplished draughtsmen and as every 
 touch of the brush is in a degree drawing, they might be good handlers 
 of paint if they were not so rigid and harsh in their markings." 
 
 He is back in London by July 25th and visits Holland House where 
 he notes a very fine portrait of Sterne by Reynolds, adding, " The por- 
 trait of Sterne is equal to any portrait I have ever seen by Sir Joshua." 
 
 He notes also seeing there the original of " Mrs. Siddons as the 
 Tragic-Muse." 
 
 The time of his departure is at hand however and the Comte de 
 Survilliers (Joseph Bonaparte) then in London writes his friend Joseph 
 Hopkinson in Philadelphia under date of July 24th : "I do not want Mr. 
 Sully to leave without telling you that he has had great success in this 
 country" (England).* We think the word "success" means not only 
 artistic success but refers as well to the recognition of his personal quali- 
 ties. Letters of Blanche and her father to the home circle show the many 
 doors that were opened to them, and the cordial relations invariably 
 established between them and their new-found friends. There was a 
 manly sincerity about Sully, accompanied as it was by great modesty, 
 and a readiness to appreciate the labors of others, that could not fail to 
 attract. We find him on most pleasant terms with the circle of British 
 artists in London, visiting at their studios and interchanging calls. 
 
 He speaks in high terms of Sir M. A. Shee's art. Of David Wilkie 
 he writes: "Wilkie charmed me ; not more in his simple unaffected kind- 
 ness of manner than in his noble and exquisite works." f 
 
 "Blanche Sully writes her family: "We have just had a visit from 
 
 * Joseph Bonaparte had visited and dined him in London,

 Sir David Wilkie, really he is a delightful man ; Jane, I can hardly de- 
 scribe him; he is a mixture of Walter Scott and Mr. McMurtrie,* not so 
 heavy as the former, nor quite so dignified as the latter — speaks quite 
 Scotchy, has eyebrows shaped something like father's, but reddish, sandy 
 hair — no beauty, yet that good quiet look of Scott." 
 
 A breakfast with the poet Rogers is mentioned in one of Sully's 
 letters, and of whose house he writes: "a precious mansion every part of 
 which seems stocked with valuable relics of Art, Science and Taste." 
 He dines with John Murray the noted publisher, meeting at his table 
 John Smith of the "Rejected Addresses," described as "an elderly, 
 pale and large gentleman," Thos. Moore and Edward Landseer, . . . 
 " Moore although unwell, showed himself to be that joyous, spark- 
 ling mortal, I have always thought him to be ; his wit, his short stories 
 were so pat to the occasion, and the cause of wit in others, that he 
 proved to be the soul of the company." . . . On a later occasion father 
 and daughter dine and pass an evening with the same host, meeting 
 Lockhart. Blanche writes of it : " Went to Mr. Murray's to dine, there 
 we had the honor of meeting the Mr. Lockhart. It was some time before 
 I could realize it for I had pictured Mr. L. rather an old man but he is 
 youngish and somewhat handsome, very entertaining, and of course 
 highly intellectual." 
 
 With these glimpses of the wide social intercourse enjoyed by 
 Blanche and her father during their London sojourn, we bring this por- 
 tion of our story to an end. 
 
 The homeward voyage was undertaken in the early part of August, 
 and we shall find Sully returned and at work in his studio in Philadelphia 
 at the end of September, where, from the life studies made of the Queen, 
 he began his full-length portrait of her on September thirtieth, 1838. 
 Before its completion, a^sunderstanding arose between the Society and 
 
 *James McMurtrie (1784-1854), an early patron of Art residing in Philadelphia.

 Mr. Sully. The former took the ground that their ownership in the por- 
 trait of Queen Victoria was of such a nature that the artist was precluded 
 from exhibiting it before delivery, or of painting any second picture of a 
 similar character. To this view Mr. Sully strenuously objected. The 
 question had been raised from the circumstance that, when visiting our 
 artist's studio, the Committee from the St. George's Society had found 
 there a replica of the full-length picture under way, and which Mr. Sully 
 frankly stated was for his own use. The upshot of this state of things 
 was the bringing of a bill by the Society, praying the Supreme Court to 
 issue an injunction to restrain any exhibition of their portrait before its 
 delivery, and to prevent any replica being made of it. Following the 
 granting of a preliminary injunction, Mr. Sully's answer and motion for 
 a dissolution of the injunction was duly filed. In his answer he main- 
 tained that he was not going beyond his rights, according to the received 
 custom of artists, both in Philadelphia and elsewhere. Before the 
 motion was argued, and by agreement of counsel, the question involved 
 in the Bill and Answer were submitted for arbitration and settlement to 
 three of the most distinguished members of the Bar of Philadelphia : the 
 gentlemen chosen being Messrs. Horace Binney, William Rawle and 
 Thomas I. Wharton. 
 
 After an examination of witnesses and argument by counsel on both 
 sides, Messrs. Binney and Rawle signed an award, in which they found 
 in favor of Mr. Sully on the question of his right to paint and retain a 
 replica of the Queen's portrait* The right to exhibit before delivery 
 was not passed upon. That the artist was free from any mercenary 
 motive is clearly shown by the fact that not long afterwards the replica 
 he painted was presented by himself to the St. Andrew's Society of 
 Charleston, S. C, in recognition of civilities, etc., shown him. Curiously 
 
 * Mr. Thomas I. Wharton filed a dissenting opinion, holding that while the artist had 
 a right to retain his studies and sketches with freedom to use or dispose of them , he did 
 not think that the said artist had the right " to combine them so as to assume exactly the 
 same figure without infringing the rights of the owners of the original."

 enough, while the valuation of the London three-quarter length portrait 
 is put down in his Register at 5^1,000,* as also the one painted for the St. 
 George's Society, these being the figures he obtained, the portrait for- 
 warded to the Charleston Society is entered at a valuation of $2,000. It 
 seems to us that Sully's revised valuation was much nearer the mark,

 able revenue for the charitable funds of the organization.

 Some reflections on Sully's genius — Resigns from Directorate of

 IT has been hinted at by the writer of an earlier biographical notice that 
 while Thomas Sully's career was not precisely meteoric in character, 
 nevertheless that his genius suffered an eclipse after the lapse of 
 something like twenty years. How so distorted a view could be 
 adopted we are at a loss to understand. It is true that some of his best 
 brush work was done following his return from England in 1810, but on 
 the other hand he is found producing portraits of the highest merit, fol- 
 lowing his second visit in 1837-38. His prestige was probably as great 
 in the years between 1830 and 1840 as in any period of his career ; and 
 that this fame was well deserved, the canvasses dating from that decade 
 are eloquent proof. Our judgment is that for a period of thirty 
 years at least his powers remained undiminished ; and that after that 
 length of time, the change was so gradual that portraits coming from his 
 hand continued to possess a charm of coloring and a grace of outline, dis- 
 tinguishing them unmistakably from contemporaneous canvasses. 
 
 Portraits painted in 1857, when Sully was entering his 75th year, 
 exhibit much of his former art — desirable portraits still — and five years 
 later (!) he is sought to paint likenesses of childhood and youth. For an 
 artist to be singled out at 80 years of age by people of culture and 
 means to paint likenesses of their children is as remarkable as it is rare. 
 
 66 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 With advancing years it is evident that our artist sought to concentrate 
 his energies on the single pursuit of his art. In 1831, after fifteen years' 
 service as a Director of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, he 
 tenders his resignation. A very flattering request from its President to 
 continue on the Board he feels constrained to decline.* 
 
 In 1834 we find his son-in-law, John Neagle, urging him very strongly 
 to head a newly-formed association of artists, afterwards known as the 
 " Artists' Fund Society." Neagle writes to Sully : 
 
 "... The reputation which you have so deservedly acquired at the summit 
 of professional excellence fully authorizes my solicitation, and I trust that it will 
 not be denied. ... I am aware of your disinclination to mingle with the busi- 
 ness transactions of a society, but what we desire is the influence of your name 
 and approbation, not undivided attention to the ordinary duties and drudgery of 
 office." 
 
 Gratifying, doubtless, as were these evidences of confidence and 
 regard. Sully is not swerved from his determination when once formed. 
 The wording of his reply to his son-in-law we can only surmise, but that 
 he was prompt (as usual) in acting on a decision arrived at an endorse- 
 ment on the Neagle letter illustrates : 
 
 "J. Neagle, Esq., on subject of Association of Artists, Septr, 7th, 
 1834. Answered Septr. 7th." 
 
 It is possible that Sully in his reply may have suggested or even 
 urged Neagle to take upon himself the reins of office. At any rate, that 
 is what occurred, for in the following year at the establishment of the 
 " Artists' Fund Society " we find John Neagle occupying the office of 
 President. He remained at its head for eight years (i 835-1843). That 
 Sully was prudent in his resolve was justified by after events ; for, less 
 than two years following the formation of the Society there was a bitter

 Sully, touching his resignation, 
 
 67 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 quarrel between a contentious member and the recently elected Presi- 
 dent. 
 
 Another invitation, however, to assume important official duties was 
 still in store for Sully. In 1842, following the death of Joseph Hopkin- 
 son, who had long served the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts as its 
 distinguished President, that body proceeded to elect Thomas Sully to 
 the vacant office. Sully, when declining the honor — expressed in very 
 graceful terms — adverted to his resolution "to avoid all situations of 
 official rank." * 
 
 A reference to Sully's supposed gains during his long career seems 
 appropriate at this point. 
 
 Elsewhere it has been advanced that, based upon a supposed sum 
 total received, he had enjoyed an average annual income of something 
 over $3500, which the writer of the article concludes to have been " a 
 very comfortable income for the greater part of his life, during the period 
 he lived." A careful examination of Sully's entries in his " Account of 
 Pictures" proves the foregoing calculation to have been founded upon 
 the valuations placed by the artist himself upon his canvasses ; and not, it 
 is to be observed, on the actual receipts in payment therefor. An illus- 
 tration or two will make this clear. In the year of his painting Queen 
 Victoria, he enters a valuation of five hundred dollars ($500) for the 
 portrait (head size) painted at Buckingham Palace, and of two thousand 
 dollars ($2000) for the full-length replica of the picture painted for the 
 St. George's Society. In neither instance did he receive any money for 
 these paintings. The first mentioned portrait of the Queen he kept dur- 
 ing his entire lifetime. It is the one inherited by his daughter, Mrs. 
 Darley, and now hanging in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York 
 City. As to the larger picture, valued at two thousand dollars, he pre- 
 sented this later to the St. Andrews' Society of Charleston, S. C. An 
 earlier instance is the portrait of General Lafayette, which we have shown 
 
 * See Appendix for correspondence. 
 68 
 
MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 to have been valued at six hundred dollars ($600) by the artist (a most 
 moderate valuation) and for which he never appears to have been paid 
 more than two hundred and fifty ($250) dollars. 
 
 Sully kept a separate book to which he invariably referred, for 
 " Cash received." Unfortunately this book has not been preserved ; at 
 least we do not know of its whereabouts, if it is still intact. We are, 
 however, fully convinced, from the system he followed, that a very con- 
 siderable reduction should be made in the estimated grand total of his 
 actual earnings. Following the valuation figures as has been done in 
 the estimate made by the writer previously referred to, these amounted 
 to nearly $247,000 (two hundred and forty-seven thousand dollars); a re- 
 sultant average annual income of $3500. We believe this estimate much 
 beyond the actual facts, when the method of calculation is looked into. 
 
 One thing, however, stands out clearly on the record, and that is our 
 artist's indefatigable industry. Our catalogue numbers 2600 works of all 
 kinds, or an average of 37 for each year that he painted. Had Thomas 
 Sully in the United States received anything like the remuneration for 
 his art which Sir Thomas Lawrence did at the same period in England,* 
 he would beyond a doubt have accumulated a handsome competence for 
 his declining years. As it was, even with all his industry and careful 
 living there was little left to be set aside " for a rainy day." A letter 
 written in 1843 to ^is son Alfred, then serving as Lieutenant (U. S. A.) 
 and stationed at Sackett's Harbor, N. Y., reveals something of this : 
 
 "I will give you a general account of how I stand at present, from 
 which you will perceive that with all my management, I shall only be 
 able to save a small pittance for your sisters when I die ; but they will 
 
 *As early as 1806 Lawrence was paid 50 guineas — ^250 for his small (head-size) 
 portraits; in 1810 his price was 100 guineas — ^500. In 1820 (ten years previous to his 
 death) this figure was advanced to 200 guineas — ^1000. His price for larger portraits 
 rose in proportion : ;£^420 for a half-length, ;^63o for a full length. Lord Gower paid 
 Lawrence 1500 guineas for his fine portrait of his wife and child, and 600 guineas was paid 
 by Lord Durham for his portrait of Master Lambton. 
 
 69

 have to depend chiefly on their own industry for support." He goes on 
 to speak of certain losses through bank failures, amounting to five thou- 
 sand (^5000) dollars, mentions having loaned out $6500 (sixty-five hun- 
 dred dollars) through Henry Darley, " returnable next November with 
 interest," and then follows : " I have an insurance on my life for one 
 thousand dollars and property in paintings at least worth one more. 
 Thus you are in possession of all my expectations." He is able to add, 
 however, "In the meantime I owe not one dollar, and have a few hundred 
 lying in the bank for any exigence. Add to these good things the bless- 
 ings of excellent health and troops of friends, and I think I have no 
 right to complain. At your time of life this statement is due. When I 
 go, your sisters will depend on you and your brother (Thomas, Jr.) for 
 advice and confidences, and I feel confident that they will not be disap- 
 pointed." 
 
 What a charming picture of the affectionate relations existing be- 
 tween father and son ! Sully's domestic circle was a never-failing source 
 of affectionate concern to him, and its members always appear to have 
 been bound together by ties of warmest sympathy. 
 
 During his lopg life he was to suffer many bereavements — at times 
 following close upon each other. In 1845 ^^^^ his step-daughter Mary 
 Chester Sully, who had married John Neagle the artist in [826. Sully 
 was much attached to her, as also to her children. She is often men- 
 tioned under the pet-name of " Moggy." A harder blow followed in 
 1847 when both his son Thomas Wilcocks (usually spoken of as Thomas 
 Sully, Jr.) and a daughter Rosalie Kemble passed away within a few 
 months of each other. 
 
 The letter which follows was written the year following these mourn- 
 ful events, and there is a reference to them.* We are introducing it how- 
 ever more particularly as picturing the later period of Sully's life ; it 
 reflects his outlook on life at that time, and exhibits his amiability of

 indignation at the close, for what he rated a mean performance. The

 enough for old age or infirmity, but that is out of the question now. My present 
 hope is to earn enough to leave the female part of my family enough with care 
 and a Uttle industry on their part to " keep the wolf from the door," and one or 
 two successful winters would enable me to do so. I could not leave home this 
 last winter, the family were too depressed by our recent loss. J I am encouraged 
 to visit Savannah next winter. But I will not determine until next summer is 
 over.

 larly so to Henry. Yet, notwithstanding all the fine things which books and 
 travelers tell of foreign parts ; there are pains, anxieties and inconveniences not 
 put down in the account which would quite balance the pleasure. Henceforth, I 
 shall be satisfied to hear, and read of travels. 
 
 Mr. and Mrs. Wake are delightful people, especially Mrs. Wake. Please 
 give Blanch's and my sincere regards to them. 
 
 Mrs. Oilman * has dedicated the second volume of her late work to me, and 
 an order to her bookseller in N. Y. to deliver it to me ; but Felix Darley who 
 presented the order, has brought me home the first volume. But I will soon 
 have it changed. 
 
 You ask me my plans for the coming Summer. In June, I have promised to 
 visit Providence for the purpose of varnishing the pictures I painted there last 
 year. I will endeavor to take Blanch with me. If I am employed I may remain 
 there during the warm weather. I have lately received a letter from Yale College 
 of New Haven to know my prices, as they desire to have a portrait of one of their 
 Professors. If they conclude to select me as the painter, I shall go there after a 
 short visit to Providence. I must seek for business this coming summer, as [the] 
 last year has been a very expensive one. By the way, I have paid all the debts 
 of poor Tom that I could hear of. 
 
 Alfred is yet in Burlington recruiting Soldiers for the Army. But as we are 
 to have peace f (thank God) he will perhaps be ordered to some garrison fort as 
 he was fixed formerly, but in what part of the country I cannot guess. He is in 
 good health and as his expenses are but light, he is enabled to save money, and 
 has remitted to me from time to time $500, which I have invested for him. All 
 this I believe is greatly owing to Jane, who has perseveringly prayed him to save 
 money. If he continues in this practice he will eventually provide against a 
 ■" rainy day."

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 Blanch is not so strong to take long walks as she used to be, but except for 
 a touch of indigestion, her health is good. She is at present much taken up with 
 a young friend of hers who is about to be married, Martha Berg, the only daugh- 
 ter of a most amiable woman, that we have long been acquainted with, who has 
 all her life struggled with poverty. The gentleman whom she is engaged to is an 
 excellent man, and very rich, so that at least one evil will be put away. 
 
 Sally as usual continues ministering to the wants of others and fidgeting at 
 home. I think Sarah (Mrs. Sully) has become still more anxious for the com- 
 fort of animals. The notice that a dog or horse is ill-treated in the neighborhood 
 will quite destroy her tranquility. Jane has lately been called upon to take some 
 portraits. She is always ready to receive an order to paint. I think she paints 
 better than she ever did, perhaps it may be because her health is firmer. Darley 
 battles along but no doubt he has plenty of difficulty. 
 
 Chip has grown to 5 it S}4 inches (remember that 5 ft. 9 inches is the 
 common height of personable men). He is but little over 12 years. . . . He 
 seems to have much talent for music, no doubt will be a professional musi- 
 cian. . . .* 
 
 So Chester has removed to New Orleans ! It will give him a better field for 
 industry and adventure, but will the summer suit his family? We are pleased 
 and surprised that Annita is about to be married. I hope it may be a proper 
 match. . . . Has Fraser told you how Mr. Saunders, the miniature painter, has 
 mended? . . . 
 
 We hear regularly from Wheeler,f and all things go on prosperously with 
 them. We expect a visit from them next summer.

 up business and retire. Of course he will sell off his stock next April and I in-

 The landlord of the property adjoining my painting-window had given leave 
 to his tenant to build against me ; which would have destroyed my light and 
 would have obliged me to move. On my expostulating with him on the subject 
 he has requested his tenant to construct the building a few feet to the left, it 
 being a matter of perfect indifference to them where it should be constructed on 
 the premises, but the landlord, Mr. Sheaf, bargained with me that I should for 
 that accommodation paint his portrait.* I have long been persuaded from ex- 
 perience that the world in which we live is made up of a few just men, a portion 
 also of Fools and the balance of knaves who prey upon the fools. 
 
 The usual quiet of our city has been broken in upon by the visit of Mr. Clay 
 and the funeral of Adams.f Dr. Chapman, a notorious punster as well as an ex- 
 cellent physician, was deputed to be with Clay on the day of his reception of 
 Ladies' visits. The Doctor observing that his hair was tumbled about insisted 
 upon restoring it to order before the company came, and taking his comb from 
 his side pocket, he adjusted the disordered hair of Mr. Clay, saying, " There, sir, 
 now you look comb-ly." !

CONCLUSION 
 
 WHEN beginning this biography, we expressed the view that 
 the period lending itself best to description was from the 
 outset of Sully's active career as a portrait painter, and for 
 the next succeeding forty years. We have endeavored to trace as faith- 
 fully as possible (allowing for the distance of time) the events of those 
 years. The reader, we feel convinced, will realize as we do, that it was 
 through no adventitious aid that Thomas Sully achieved his high reputa- 
 tion. Writing to his son Alfred, who afterwards rose to prominent mili- 
 tary rank, he remarks, " How true it is that we make our own fortunes ; 
 talent, money, nothing will do without regular habits and industry ; these 
 my dear boy you have and I have no fear on your account ". When 
 speaking of a fellow artist of acknowledged genius, he notes that he was 
 "Capricious, and never would paint unless he was in the humor, although 
 the way is to begin and the humor will come afterwards ". The cardinal 
 principles of industry and punctuality were so ingrained in Sully's nature 
 that sitters coming to him were not put off or disappointed as so often 
 happens, perhaps especially when the Artist has gained great celebrity. 
 We read of Sir Thomas Lawrence's procrastinations and Gilbert Stuart's 
 delays. Not so with Sully ; a promise made or an engagement entered 
 into is to be fulfilled at all costs. The integrity of the man is on a level 
 with his genius ; and as a consequence, he rings true at every stage of 
 his career. While surviving to a great age, Sully was spared many of 
 the bodily infirmities that usually accompany it. He had always been of 
 an active habit and continued to take regular walks down to a very late 
 period of his life. Tuckerman * describes a visit paid him at his Studio

 not many years previous to his decease: "The veteran was found work- 
 ing diligently at his Easel.* During a half-hour's conversation, Mr. 
 Sully exhibited a wonderful richness of anecdote and observation, nor 
 did his memory seem to be seriously impaired." 
 
 A gentleman.f still living in our midst, has recently put on record 
 his recollections of the Artist, his home, and family circle. Naturally 
 these recollections deal with Mr. Sully's later years. When referring to 
 his painting room and the preparation of colors, for which the artist was 
 noted, he remarks : " Now this implied labor, manual labor, involving the 
 expenditure of considerable energy ; and I remember that the work re- 
 quired in the preparation of white was especially arduous because Mr. 
 Sully in his advanced years while preparing other colors gave up making 
 white because of his failing strength ". Continuing he narrates, " Mr. 
 Sully always delightful in any society was especially charming in his 
 Studio. To be with him in his Studio, when he was not at work and was 
 in a talking mood was a rare privilege. He was full of recollections of 
 the great men of the early days of our land." Here we find the capacity 
 for social intercourse still happily preserved, following a full use of all the 
 faculties. The same gentleman goes on to comment on Sully's tastes, 
 and in passing notes his inability to appreciate Milton. " He simply 
 could not enjoy Milton, and being one of the most honest men who ever 
 lived he could not pretend to enjoy the subHme poet." Sully is in good 
 company on this point. In a book describing " Some Aspects of Thacke- 
 ray," by Lewis Melville, we read: "For instance while as a matter of 
 course he (Thackeray) admitted that Milton was a great poet he added 
 that ' he was such a bore that no one could read him ' (!). What makes 
 the comparison particularly applicable in this case is that the author of 
 the book referred to exclaims as does Mr. Sully's biographer, "What-

 ever one may think of the discernment of a man who says that, it is im- 
 possible to doubt his honesty." 
 
 The writer of this memoir can very distinctly recall Mr. Sully accom- 
 panied by his ever faithful Blanche, walking about the streets of our city. 
 This was about 1861-62 — ten years before his decease, but he was even 
 then almost an octogenarian (born in 1783). The description of his ap- 
 pearance at that time given by Mr. Budd in his very charming address 
 already cited : " Wearing his well-known great coat with large fur cuffs 
 and collar, and always wearing a high silk hat" fits precisely with the 
 writer's recollection. Although but a boy at the time, there remains very 
 vividly with him, the memory of a spare, slightly stooping yet dignified 
 figure, costumed as just described, with a woman of sprightly mien 
 (Blanche Sully) hovering protectingly by his side. 
 
 Mrs. Sully pre-deceased her husband by a little over five years, so 
 that towards the last it was Blanche who ministered to her father. Any 
 memorial of the Artist must include mention of that bright spirit who 
 accompanied him so unfalteringly through life. Less endowed appar- 
 ently than the other members of the family with a capacity for Art,* her 
 interests and affections seem always to have centered on her father. 
 Early in life we find her the companion of his accustomed rambles afoot. 
 Afterwards she accompanied him to England and proved herself of the 
 greatest service to the Artist in his new surroundings. Always at her 
 father's side, she shares his sorrows and his joys, finally becoming the 
 comfort and solace of his declining years. She was the apple of his eye 
 and merited the affection he always felt for her. When the parting 
 came, the separation must have meant much to gentle Blanche. She 
 survived her father twenty-six years, living down to 1898, when at the 
 age of eighty-four she also passed away. 
 
 We have already related how Sully was left in undisturbed posses-

 Darley) all possessed this faculty.

 sion of Girard's house in Fifth Street above Chestnut Street, and where 
 he lived continuously for something like forty-five years. Here his death 
 occurred on November 5th, 1872, The obsequies were conducted from 
 the house, and a description of the closing scene is given by one who was 
 present and entered an account of it in his diary : " November 9th — went 
 to Mr. Sully's funeral. It had originally been intended that it should be 
 strictly private, but it seems that it was not possible to keep it perfectly 
 quiet and accordingly quite a number came to the house. Very few, 
 however, went to the grounds, probably only the invited ones. The old 
 Gentleman was laid out in his painting room. It seemed peculiarly fitting 
 that he should be. From what other place should he start for his last 
 earthly home ? The suffering he had been through had left some marks 
 upon his face, but, on the whole, he seemed calm as he lay there sur- 
 rounded by his utensils, the picture half finished on the easel, where he 
 had probably left it when he became unable to paint more. Dear old 
 Man, he is gone, a perfect gentleman, a thorougly pure, good, noble 
 man ".* 
 
 Not long ago the writer of this biography, on a summer's day, 
 entered the main gates of the cemetery at Laurel Hill and made his way 
 to where lie so many of the Sully name. A very simple head-stone 
 marks the resting place of the Artist and his wife, while all about them 
 are the graves of their children. The burial lot is situated at about the 
 center of the main cemetery f on slightly rising ground, with open views 
 on all sides. It is indeed a "beautiful resting place," as some one writ- 
 ing of it has remarked, and its unpretentious character throughout makes 
 a strong appeal to the feelings. As the writer moved about among the 
 simple headstones and read their inscriptions, the spirit of the united 
 affections of those lying beneath seemed to hover about the place and 
 make it doubly sacred. 
 
 *This mention is made in Mr, Budd's printed address on Thomas Sully. We are in- 
 clined to think from its sympathetic tone that Mr. Budd himself may have been the writer 
 in the diary mentioned.

MEMOIRS OF THOMAS SULLY 
 
 It is something of a reproach that here in Philadelphia no memorial 
 to Thomas Sully's memory of a public character seems ever to have been 
 proposed. Recently a tablet commemorating Gilbert Stuart's genius on 
 the site of his former studio, has been placed on the Drexel Building at 
 Fifth and Chestnut Streets. If eulogistic mention of Thomas Sully's name 
 were to be similarly placed, close to the site of his former home and 
 studio at Fifth and Ranstead Streets, it would seem highly appropriate. 
 Boston has her " Copley Square," and we believe a street named after 
 Gilbert Stuart, although where his ashes lie, alas ! is veiled in doubt. In 
 our own city there is nothing to commemorate in a public manner the 
 name of an Artist, so justly celebrated, and so universally identified with 
 Philadelphia, as that of Thomas Sully.

FOREWORD 
 
 The Historical Society of Pennsylvania owns the original autograph 
 list of the paintings by Thomas Sully, written throughout in his minute, 
 painstaking handwriting. It includes most of his portraits painted oi* 
 canvas and panel, his miniatures on ivory, and numerous subject paint- 
 ings and many sketches. This register is now for the first time fully 
 published, together with the description of a number of his portraits 
 hitherto unrecorded. Sully for some unexplainable reason failed to note 
 a number of his portraits in his register, and these omissions have taken 
 away to some extent the value of the original list as an authority, or as a 
 means of identification of his work ; therefore a more complete catalogue 
 of his work has been required by the student of American painting. 
 
 In describing the painting " head to left " or " right " it is meant that 
 the head of the subject is turned to the left or right of the person viewing^ 
 the picture. Wherever possible, the original paintings have beent 
 consulted for the description and measurements. The artist notes, 
 in his list of paintings the standard sizes of the canvases used. These 
 sizes are in inches, Head 17" by 20"; Bust 20" by 24" ; Half-length 
 25" by 30"; Kit-Cat 20" by 36"; Three-quarter length 40" by 50"; 
 Bishop's half length 44" by 56" ; Whole length 68" by 94". There are 
 variations in the sizes of canvases and in the placing of the portrait upoit- 
 the canvas, but the above are the standard sizes and descriptions of life- 
 portraits. Sully signed his paintings with his monogram 'JS and the 
 date, either in an inconspicuous manner on the face of his picture or on 
 the back of the canvas. 
 
 Sully notes in his register of paintings the dates, and under each 
 year he records the month and day he started the work, the words 
 "Begun" and "Finished" showing the length of time occupied by the 
 
FOREWORD 
 
 work. He also notes the price, date, and in some cases where the paint- 
 ing was a present or gift this represents the valuation he set at that time 
 on his work. Where he introduced the hands of the sitter his price was 
 often increased, and he notes it in the register, as well as some note or 
 description of the sitter, family connection, or place of residence. As a 
 means of identification and interest in the work, the authors have added 
 wherever possible, biographical information of the sitter and the present 
 ownership of the paintings. Owing to the Artist's high reputation and 
 great industry he has left us many portraits of well-known people ; in the 
 City of Philadelphia his list of sitters might well be called " The Blue 
 Book" of that day. It is gratifying to find at this time so many of the 
 portraits he painted still in the hands of the families and descendants of 
 the original owners, although the study of American painting has drawn 
 many of the best portraits of Stuart and Sully into public galleries and 
 collections. 
 
 At the conclusion of their labors, the authors desire to express their 
 hearty appreciation of the aid and assistance rendered to them through- 
 out the progress of their work by many eminent authorities on American 
 painting, in addition to the invariable consideration and ready coopera- 
 tion of the present owners of the paintings of Thomas Sully.

 Picture was owned by I. W. Heysinger, M. D., of Philadelphia, from whose 
 possession it passed to Alfred Percival Smith, Esq., of Philadelphia. 
 
 Note by Dr. H. — ^This portrait of Edgar Allen Foe was painted by Thomas Sully 
 in 1839 or 1840, while Poe was residing in Philadelphia. George R. Bonfield, the 
 artist, was well acquainted with both Poe and Sully. All three attended social meet- 
 ings of artists, actors, writers, etc., in the Old Falstafi Hotel, 6th St. above Chestnut, 
 Phila. John Sartain was also a participant. It was the fashion at this time to call 
 Poe the American Byron, and Murray's Childe Harold edition had recently appeared 
 (see Byron portrait) , and Sully posed him, for his own pleasure, in the Byron attitude, 
 modified by Poe's dress. James McMurtrie furnished the cloak. John Sartain says 
 of Poe at page 215 of his " Recollections", "Poe's face was handsome. Although his 
 forehead when seen in profile showed a receding line from the brow up, viewed from 
 the front it presented a broad and noble expanse, very large at and above the temples. 
 His lips were thin and delicately moulded." 
 
 This picture alone shows these features. It is strikingly like the sketch of his 
 mother, as shown in Joyce's " Edgar Allen Poe ", page 6. Poe wore no mustache at 
 that time, as shown in Sully's picture.

 I. LETTERS 
 
 May 30, 1 83 1. 
 Dear Sir : 
 
 At the last meeting of the Directors of the Penna. Academy of the 
 Fine Arts I presented your letter tendering your resignation as a Mem- 
 ber of the Board. Altho' we are unwilling to press upon you a continu- 
 ance of your services to the Academy at the expense of your own con- 
 venience and wishes, we hope you will consent to a postponement of 
 your retirement from office, at least for another year. The organization 
 of the schools and the arrangements to be put in operation during the 
 ensuing year, will render your knowledge and experience peculiarly im- 
 portant to us. I am therefore directed by the unanimous desire of the 
 Board to ask your assent to be put on the ticket for Directors at the ap- 
 proaching election. Very Truly & Respectfully 
 
 Yr. very obed. Servant 
 
 Jos. HOPKINSON^ 
 
 T. Sully, Esq. 
 
 (Sully's Answer to Mr, Hopkinson on back of letter.) 
 
 May 31. 
 Hon. Judge Hopkinson. 
 My dear Sir : 
 
 Since it was after mature deliberation that I determined upon resign- 
 ing my place on the Board of Directors of the Academy of Fine Arts, I 
 would by no means be dissuaded from this step at the present juncture.. 
 
 393 
 
APPENDIX 
 
 My engagements at Boston will oblige me to leave home by the middle 
 of June, and will detain me until late in the Fall ; so that at all events I 
 should be precluded from rendering any assistance in the arrangements 
 to be made in the schools of the Academy, but I am fully persuaded that 
 I could not offer a single idea to improve the views already embraced on 
 the subject. 
 
 I consider the reluctance of the Board to accept my resignation as a 
 testimonial of their friendly feelings towards me, for which I beg through 
 you to make them my grateful acknowledgments. 
 
 With sincere esteem. 
 
 Your obt. Servt 
 
 Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. 
 
 Philada: February 9TH, 1842. 
 Dear Sir : 
 
 At a stated meeting of the Board of Directors held on Wednesday 
 Evening the 9th Inst.; you were elected a Director of the Academy, and 
 immediately afterwards you were Elected President of the Academy in 
 the place of the late Judge Hopkinson. 
 
 Very respectfully yours, 
 
 F'ra Hopkinson, Secy. 
 Mr. Thomas Sully. 
 
 Philadelphia, 
 I 6th February 1842 
 Thomas Sully, Esqr. 
 Dear Sir : 
 
 You have no doubt long ere this heard of the death of our much 
 lamented fellow citizen Joseph Hopkinson Esquire, late President of the 
 Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, who departed this life on the 
 15th of January last. 
 
 394 
 
APPENDIX 
 
 In his death that institution has met with a very serious loss, for 
 since its first establishment, he upon every occasion exercised a most 
 active and untiring zeal in furtherance of its best interests. 
 
 The directors of the Academy on whom it devolves to fill the 
 vacancy made by the death of their highly esteemed late President, held 
 a special meeting on the evening of the loth inst. for that purpose, when 
 you were unanimously chosen to fill that station, and in accordance with 
 the following Resolution we take pleasure in communicating the same 
 to you. 
 
 Resolved, that Charles Graff, Hyman Gratz and Thomas C. Rock- 
 hill be a Committee to inform Thomas Sully, Esq. of his election as Pres- 
 ident of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. 
 
 We are with great regard and esteem,

 Gentlemen : 
 
 I am greatly impressed with the honor conferred upon 
 me by the Directors of the Academy of the Fine Arts in electing me 
 President of the Institution ; particularly so when I consider the talents 
 and high standing of our late friend Joseph Hopkinson Esquire whose 
 vacated place I was expected to fill. 
 
 Yet I am constrained to decline the distinction you have proffered 
 me ; I have long since resolved to avoid all situations of official rank, and 
 especially one of such responsibility as that in question.

 II. "CAPUCHIN CHAPEL" 
 
 Story of the Picture 
 
 It is related that in July of the year 182 1, Sully first became person- 
 ally acquainted with Washington Allston. 
 
 Portrait painting being temporarily under an eclipse, it was sug- 
 gested by Allston that a well executed copy of Granet's picture of the 
 " Capuchin Chapel " (the choir of the Capuchin Monastery in the Piazza 
 Barberini at Rome. Painted by Frangois Marius Granet), at that time 
 owned by a wealthy Bostonlan, might prove profitable as an exhibition 
 picture. Permission having been gained from the owner of the picture, 
 vSully at once set about executing a copy. His indefatigable industry is 
 aijain emphasized, when we find him completing the picture in two 
 months' time, after brother artists had expressed the view that it would 
 take very much longer. Allston allowed five months for its completion, 
 while Gilbert Stuart predicted it would involve six months' labor. 
 
 The entry in Sully's "Account of Pictures" shows that he began it 
 on "Aug. 7 " aud finished it "Oct. 9", or in just about two months. It 
 was a large canvas, measuring 5 ft. 8 in. by 4 ft. 3 in. An anecdote is 
 related that when he informed Allston of its completion, the latter re- 
 marked, "You have made a sketch." " No; a carefully finished copy — 
 come and see." 
 
 396 
 
APPENDIX 
 
 That it must have been well executed and a spirited reproduction of 
 the original, there is evidence in correspondence, which the writer has 
 been fortunate in having had access to. In the Hopkinson (MSS) Col- 
 lection, letters are extant referring to the picture and its ultimate history. 
 Under date of July 7, 1825, the Hon. Joel R. Poinsett writes from Mexico 
 City to Judge Joseph Hopkinson, in Philadelphia : 
 
 "I saw a bad copy of the ' Capuchin Chapel ' in the cabinet of the 
 Bishop of Puebla; it cost him an enormous sum. If Mr. Sully thinks the 
 public curiosity exhausted in the United States, and will send me his copy, 
 I will hang it in my house and sell it for him if I can get the price he shall 
 fix upon it." 
 
 To which Judge Hopkinson replied under date of September 27, 
 1825: 
 
 " Mr. Sully is very grateful for your thinking so kindly of him, the 
 copy of the 'Capuchin Chapel' produces from $120 to 55^150 dollars a 
 year;* and it would be imprudent to part with it. On my suggestion, 
 however, he will make another copy equally good, and send it to you. It 
 will be ready for some vessel in the Spring." 
 
 Then, on December 27, 1825, Sully himself writes Mr. Poinsett: 
 
 " Our mutual friend, Mr. Hopkinson, read to me a passage in one of 
 your letters to him last Fall, in which you kindly invited me to adventure 
 in your charge the sale of my picture of the ' Capuchin Chapel.' I 
 promptly replied to the message from you, but find that the vessel I wrote 
 by has been lost at sea. I would now assure you that I intend to send 
 the picture to you by the first spring ship ; at the same time will also send 
 one or two other subjects with the limit price attached." In accepting 
 your benevolent invitation, I am fully sensible of your kind intention and 
 hope my feelings of grateful acknowledgment will be acceptable to you." 
 
 * Sully's copy of the " Capuchin Chapel " was brought to Norfolk. It re- 
 ceived in two weeks' exhibition upwards of $200." Under date of March, 1822, 
 in Dunlap's Autobiography, p. 540. 
 
 397 
 
APPENDIX 
 
 From the foregoing, it would appear that Sully decided to send the 
 picture he had been exhibiting, rather than delay matters by executing a 
 second copy, as suggested by Mr. Hopkinson.* 
 
 Under date of October 20, 1826, Mr. Poinsett writes Judge Hopkin- 
 son : 
 
 " I enclose you a letter for Mr. Sully, which I will thank you to de- 
 liver to him. I have chosen this channel because the letter contains an 
 order for $500. I sold his picture for $550. The expenses of carriage 
 rather exceeded $50." 
 
 This is confirmed by Sully himself, who addresses "His Excellency 
 Joel R. Poinsett, Minister of U. S. to Mexico " from Philadelphia, Febru- 
 ary 27, 1827 : 
 
 " I have received the draft you sent me for Five hundred dollars, 
 some months ago by the hand of Mr. Hopkinson. I took it for granted 
 he would tell you so in his next communication. I have since received 
 the duplicate and your kind letter, which obliges me to feel ashamed of 
 my remissness. I am well satisfied to learn that the ' Capuchiji Chapel' 
 has come safe to hand!' 
 
 The language of this last paragraph raises a doubt whether the pic- 
 ture reported sold by Mr. Poinsett under date of October 20, 1826, refers 
 to the canvas under discussion or a different one. It is possible that the 
 "Capuchin Chapel" might have been purchased and paid for before 
 arrival, in consideration of Mr. Poinsett's responsibiHty. But that the 
 picture did sell and found a home in Mexico is clearly proven by the fol- 
 lowing letter from Sully, which we give in full : 
 
 *July 8th, 1826. "Finished the retouching of copy of 'Capuchin Chapel,' 
 $100, 5' 8" X 4' 2"." From Sully's own " Account of Pictures." This was 
 probably preparatory to shipping it to Mexico. 
 
 398 
 
APPENDIX 
 
 "Philadelphia, April 2oth, 1828. 
 " Hon'l' J Poinsett, 
 
 Minister of U. S. in Mexico, 
 Dear Sir: 
 
 I received yesterday by the hand of Mr. Vaughan your letter of Feb- 
 ruary 23rd, inclosing a draft on the Govt, for $500 as part payment of the 
 sale of 'Capuchin Chapel.' 
 
 The amount is beyond my expectations and our obligation to you 
 very great for the trouble you have so kindly undertaken ; indeed the re- 
 flection of having taken up so much of your valuable time is the only 
 alloy to the pleasure I have received in the termination of the business. 
 
 You will be pleased to hear that the Arts follow in the train of suc- 
 cess and encouragement that has lately been given to every branch of 
 industry in the U. S. I am persuaded that it only requires the aid of 
 wealth and fashion to prove that the Fine Arts is one strong point of 
 character in the people of this country. 
 
 I am, dear Sir, with high esteem and gratitude, 
 
 Yr. friend and Ob't servant, 
 
 T. S." 
 
 The close of this letter shows Sully in happy and optimistic mood, 
 as he had every reason to be.

 Hints to Young Portrait Painters 
 
 And the Process of Portrait Painting 
 
 As practiced by the late 
 
 Thomas Sully

 Phila., 1873 
 
 PREFACE 
 
 These " Hints to Young Painters " were prepared for the press by 
 the late Thomas Sully in the year 1851, and revised by him in 1871, but 
 were not during his lifetime placed in the hands of any publisher. Their 
 merit lies in their brevity and clearness, and they are addressed especi- 
 ally to young artists, who will find in them much useful information. 
 Knowing the deep interest that was felt by the profession in every word 
 •spoken or written by the artist, it has been deemed best to add a few 
 notes on the preparation of canvas and vehicles, gleaned from his mem- 
 oirs. This will interest the accomplished professor as well as the inex- 
 perienced amateur and may prove of service to both.
