Descripción

Albumen print (5 ¾ x 4 in.). Cabinet card mount. Light foxing, minor wear to extremities of mount. A handsome photograph. Boldly signed and dated 1879 by Whitman. Whitman observed of this delightful portrait, It is one of my good-humored pictures. … This is strong enough to be right and gentle enough to be right, too: I like to be both: I wouldn t like people to say he is a giant and then forget I know how to love. The flamboyant Napoleon Sarony was one of New York s leading portrait photographers. In July 1878 he invited the poet to sit for a group of portraits. Eight photographs resulted. Whitman recalled of sitting at the great photographic establishment that he had a real pleasant time. N° de ref. del artículo ABE-1694626861938
