Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Sheet size: 27. 1/2 x 14 7/8 inches; image size: 24 7/8 x 11 inches. Intaglio engraving. A low, broad view of Niagara Falls, which shows the stairs on the American side. Captions below the image read: Painted by J. Hamilton from a sketch by T. Taylor; Engraved at J.M. Butler's establishment, 242 Chestnut St. Philada. James Hamilton (1819-1878) was an Irish/American painter, mainly self-taught through the study of engravings, though he did attend the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts for a while, and by 1852 was regarded by the well-known engraver John Sartain "as occupying a place in the very front rank of American artists" and he "confidently predict[ed] for him a still higher position in his profession," (See Jacobowitz: James Hamilton, 1819-1878, American Marine Painter, p.9). After a year abroad in 1854 to study the works of Turner, whom he much admired, and other great landscape painters, he returned home establishing himself as an illustrator and teacher of Thomas and Edward Moran. Hamilton was known in his lifetime as 'the American Turner' because of Turner's influence. "From the 1840s until the artist's death, James Hamilton's paintings of stormy seas and bustling ports were exhibited widely in Philadelphia and across the United States. Several works were translated into popular black-and-white prints that circulated broadly through the print clubs of the country's major cities," (See Woodmere Art Museum). John M. Butler (11809-1868) was an engraver, copperplate printer, and portrait artist owning one of the largest establishments in Philadelphia. He would join forces with Joseph R. Carpenter in 1863, to form Butler & Carpenter's, the first printer of U.S. Revenue stamps. Rare. We could locate no copies on OCLC. The copy mentioned by Dow at the Grosvenor Library, now resides at the Buffalo & Erie CPL's Rare Book Room. ABPC and Rare Book Hub show no other copies at auction since 1903, at Anderson Galleries (2/9/03: lot 234) and one shortly thereafter for sale at Goodspeed's in 1906. Dow: Anthology and Bibliography of Niagara Falls (1921), Vol. 2, p. 900; not in Jacobowitz: James Hamilton, 1819-1878, American Marine Painter. Toned, old damp stains to lower margin and verso, a few edge tears, one an inch long, but all marginal not affecting image, earlier tissue mounted to reinforce verso.…
