Book The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography  1905  Vol  29  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, 1905, Vol. 29 Until a decade and a half ago the fact that the same great scene, as had animated Trumbull's brush, had several years earlier inspired another painter, had been so entirely lost sight of as to have been virtually unknown, when, in a dark corner of the old Boston Museum, on Tremont Street, the writer discovered the painting of The Congress Voting Inde pendence, begun by Robert Edge Pine and finished by Edward Savage, now in the hall of the Historical Society of Penn sylvania. Upon comparing the Pine and Trumbull pictures there can be but little doubt that Trumbull received some thing more than mere suggestion, from Pine's earlier com position, for the arrangement of his later picture. Both pictures are remarkably well composed and while Trum bull's may have more stately dignity, Pine's is unquestionably the most realistic and natural. But in the very important feature of the architecture of the room in which the im mortal act was consummated, Trumbull did not follow Pine and that feature makes the Pine picture of far greater historical value and importance than that by Trumbull, as Pine reproduces the chamber as it was at the time the Declaration was adopted, for, as our story will show, it was unquestionably painted within its very walls. The history of the picture and of its painters is both interesting and important and deserves to be preserved and perpetuated for future students.
