Dear Tumblr friends, is this the same guy as the sitter in the Sully portrait I just reblogged? This painting is attributed to Jacob Eichholtz, but the identity of the subject is not currently known. Eichholtz painted a John Finley in 1812, nine years before the Sully portrait, according to Rebecca Beal's book on Eichholtz. Beal says that the location of the Finley portrait is unknown. York County, where Finley grew up, is very near Lancaster, where Eichholtz lived in 1812. Do you think this is John Finley at age 25 (with Sully's portrait being Finley at 34)?

Miss Schaum, Jacob Eichholtz, 1808, Art Institute of Chicago: American Art

Working as a coppersmith in his hometown of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Jacob Eichholtz aspired to be a portraitist, eventually giving up his metalwork business to focus on painting by 1811. Despite having essentially no formal training in the medium, Eichholtz progressed quickly, becoming one of the leading portrait painters in Philadelphia and nearby areas. These portraits of the family of Benjamin Schaum (1980.742, 1980.743, and 1980.744), a fellow resident and coppersmith in Lancaster, are examples of the artist’s early style. Eichholtz first mastered small, profile portraits like these, typically executed on wooden panels. Later he developed a more sophisticated handling of the figure, rendering larger-scale compositions on canvas of his sitters in three-quarter views.

Wedding's Posts💐 #7

Woman's Dress, Wedding, 1847

Description: Annie (Anna) Reigart wore this dress on the occasion of her marriage to John Haldeman on March 23, 1847 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The wedding was held at the Lancaster Moravian Church. She was born on June 28, 1826, the daughter of Philip Wager Reigart and Elizabeth Jenkins Reigart. Annie’s father was a prominent businessman in Lancaster -- a wine merchant as well as a partner in his father’s law firm. He died in 1833 when Annie was only seven. Her mother did not remarry. Before her father’s death, a local artist, Jacob Eichholtz, painted the parents’ portraits. He also did a portrait, now privately owned, of Annie when she was about four. It depicts a young girl with dark hair and eyes.Once married, the Haldemanns appear to have moved several times. Various records indicate that they lived in Virginia, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and, eventually, England. The dress itself is a style that would have been suitable for evening wear, with its sheer, decorative fabric, short sleeves, and lower neckline. Since many weddings were held in the evening during this period, this dress was appropriate for a wedding. Additionally, the small sprigs embroidered in silver on the dress may be myrtle, which was one of the “wedding herbs,” an emblem of Venus and signifying love. The use of such elaborate fabrics in this dress indicates that the family was still well off financially in spite of the death of Annie’s father. The probate inventory conducted when her father died indicates that he left a sizeable estate.This two-piece wedding dress is constructed of white silk overlayed with silk chiffon embroidered with silver metallic thread. The bodice front is cut in four pieces, creating an elongated “V” at center front waist with a center front seam. The seams between the side front pieces act as bust darts. The waist of the bodice has self-piping and the wide neckline is edged with piping with lace trimming applied at the neck edge. An applied pleated band of embroidered chiffon extends from each shoulder seam over the bust to the center front seam. Short narrow sleeves overlaid with chiffon have sleeve openings edged with a narrow band of lace. The center back opening of the bodice is boned with worked eyelets on either side for a laced closure, and the bodice sides and front seams are boned as well. The bodice is lined with white cotton with bust pads sewn to the inside of the bodice fronts. The skirt is composed of free hanging taffeta and chiffon layers pleated as one at the waist and folded to the inside with no waistband. The hems of the skirt are folded over. The waist measures 22 inches.
