Book excerpt: On the occasion of the anniversary of Thomas Jefferson's birth, The Eye of Thomas Jefferson, a major contribution to the study of Jefferson and his world, is available once again. This extensive catalogue was originally produced by the National Gallery of Art to accompany a vast exhibition of Jeffersonian artifacts for the bicentennial of the American Revolution. Because Jefferson's world was wide, his eye discerning, and his intellect extraordinary, the exhibition catalogue is wide-ranging. From the United States and Europe, the book brings together works of art from Jefferson's world: paintings and sculptures that he admired, works that he owned, and portraits and sculptures of himself and his contemporaries. Items of material culture, including furniture and silver, are also included, along with reflections of Jefferson's architectural interests and achievements, revealed in the buildings he admired and those that he designed. Highlights of the exhibition catalogue include The Medici Venus; David's The Death of Socrates; Houdon's marble busts of Washington, Franklin, and Jefferson; Trumbull's famous series of paintings of the American Revolution; examples of paintings from the Paris Salons of 1785, 1787, and 1789, which Jefferson visited while minister to France; Saint-Memin's portraits of Osage Indians; and much more. With more than 600 illustrations, The Eye of Thomas Jefferson is a major work of scholarship. The thoroughness of the entries, written by well-qualified scholars, makes this an indispensable reference work not only on Jefferson, but also on the world of the arts in the era of the American and French Revolutions. The book is an incomparable source to the rich backgroundof Jefferson's life and work.

Download or read book Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings written by Annette Gordon-Reed and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 1998-03-29 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Annette Gordon-Reed's groundbreaking study was first published, rumors of Thomas Jefferson's sexual involvement with his slave Sally Hemings had circulated for two centuries. Among all aspects of Jefferson's renowned life, it was perhaps the most hotly contested topic. The publication of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings intensified this debate by identifying glaring inconsistencies in many noted scholars' evaluations of the existing evidence. In this study, Gordon-Reed assembles a fascinating and convincing argument: not that the alleged thirty-eight-year liaison necessarily took place but rather that the evidence for its taking place has been denied a fair hearing. Friends of Jefferson sought to debunk the Hemings story as early as 1800, and most subsequent historians and biographers followed suit, finding the affair unthinkable based upon their view of Jefferson's life, character, and beliefs. Gordon-Reed responds to these critics by pointing out numerous errors and prejudices in their writings, ranging from inaccurate citations, to impossible time lines, to virtual exclusions of evidence—especially evidence concerning the Hemings family. She demonstrates how these scholars may have been misguided by their own biases and may even have tailored evidence to serve and preserve their opinions of Jefferson. This updated edition of the book also includes an afterword in which the author comments on the DNA study that provided further evidence of a Jefferson and Hemings liaison. Possessing both a layperson's unfettered curiosity and a lawyer's logical mind, Annette Gordon-Reed writes with a style and compassion that are irresistible. Each chapter revolves around a key figure in the Hemings drama, and the resulting portraits are engrossing and very personal. Gordon-Reed also brings a keen intuitive sense of the psychological complexities of human relationships—relationships that, in the real world, often develop regardless of status or race. The most compelling element of all, however, is her extensive and careful research, which often allows the evidence to speak for itself. Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings: An American Controversy is the definitive look at a centuries-old question that should fascinate general readers and historians alike.
