Description:
This item is currently on reserve; please contact dealer for more details. Washington City: Chas. Fenderich, 1840. Folio. 435 x 325 mm., [17 x 12 ½ inches]. Lithographic portrait drawn from life. A few minor tears to the margins, expertly repair, some light foxing and discoloration. A very stable and flexible paper stock. Rare portrait of the military hero from Kentucky, (thought to be the killer of Tecumseh), close associate of Henry Clay, Member of both Houses of Congress and finally the Vice President of the United States. The portrait was made while Johnson was Vice President and it captures the sense of the man and the knowing look he casts on the viewer. It is very beautifully executed by the artist and is a display of the artists skill and sense of humanity. Not much can be gleaned about the life and career of Charles Fenderich, who worked in Washington D. C., except from a series of lithographic portraits that he made of a number of American presidents, members of the Congress… Read More

Written after the international success of his poem Dei sepolcri¸ Foscolo caused an uproar within the academic community by challenging the orthodoxy of literary convention.  He criticized contemporary literary practice as archaic and deadening to the imagination and freedom of expression.  He viewed literary society as stagnant and equated it with the confining regiment of the ancient regime.  He called on writers and thinkers to shake off the shackles of the past and to read the French and English writers and incorporate the style and form of the new writing.  For Foscolo Italy was entering a new age and the future of literature… Read More
