Book excerpt: Excerpt from De Luxe Catalogue of the Valuable Paintings Collected by the Late Joseph Jefferson: To Be Sold at Unrestricted Public Sale by Order of Mrs. Joseph Jefferson and Edward G. Black, Esq., Executors The Madonna of the Cottage and The Port of Dieppe had been sent to a loan exhibition in New York City. They had been returned to Buzzards Bay the night before the fire, and placed in the hall on the first floor until such time as they could be rehung. When the fire broke out they were hastily taken to a placeof safety, together with the Corot, his first purchase. All the other pictures, however, and the entire house and furnishings were consumed in about twenty minutes. This collection may therefore be said to be founded upon a high standard, beginning with the masterpieces of Mauve and Israels. With a catholic taste and excellent judgment guided by a cultivated instinct, he gradually built up the new group. His independent mind and enthusiasm possibly led to the buying of some pictures which are not of the highest standard; yet, like most collectors, he was continually culling and weeding out and adding better material. He would often say I cannot have all the good things, neither will my purse allow me to indulge largely in the examples of the Barbizon School. I must be content with a few master works and leave to the millionaires the ownership of the others. His experience with his first gallery led him to abandon the systematic display of paintings arrayed side by side. He remarked: I will hereafter distribute my pictures on the walls of the living rooms of my home, where I can see them daily and enjoy them with my friends.

Download or read book The Man who was Rip Van Winkle written by Benjamin McArthur and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most beloved American comedic actor of the nineteenth century, Joseph Jefferson made his name as Washington Irving's Rip Van Winkle. In this book, a compelling blend of biography and theatrical and cultural history, Benjamin McArthur chronicles Jefferson's remarkable career and offers a lively and original account of the heroic age of the American theatre. Joe Jefferson's entire life was spent on the stage, from the age of Jackson to the dawn of motion pictures. He extensively toured the United States as well as Australia and Great Britain. An ever-successful career (including acclaim as painter and memoirist) put him in the company of the great actors, artists, and writers of the day, including Edwin Forrest, Edwin Booth, John Singer Sargent, and William Dean Howells. This book rescues a brilliant figure and places him, appropriately enough, on center stage of a pivotal time for American theatre. McArthur explores the personalities of the period, the changing theatrical styles and their audiences, the touring life, and the wide and varied culture of theatre. Through the life of Jefferson, McArthur is able to illuminate an era.
