Contemplating Character: Portrait Drawings and Oil Sketches from Jacques-Louis David to Lucian Freud explores the genre of portraiture in 80 works by 67 of the most famous European and American artists. Rebecca A. Dunham, the Four Arts’ head of fine arts & curator, takes a look at five “must see” works in this fascinating exhibition.
Pierre-Maximilien Delafontaine (French, 1777–1860)
The Painter Jacques-Louis David in Prison
1794, black and white chalk on ivory laid paper
This portrait of French Neoclassical painter Jacques-Louis David (1748–1825) was painted by his pupil Pierre-Maximilien Delafontaine. Delafontaine executed the circular black and white chalk drawing in 1794 while David was imprisoned. An ardent supporter of the French Revolution, David served time in prison twice because of his political views. Here, David is finely dressed and twists his head over his left shoulder to return the viewer’s gaze with penetrating eyes. At first glance, his facial expression looks like a smirk, but the asymmetry in his lower face is due to a peri-oral fencing wound he suffered in his youth. He lost his left nasolabial groove, which made it difficult for him to move the muscles on the left side of his face. The injury also gave him nerve damage and a speech impediment (“r” was especially tricky for David to pronounce).

Contemplating Character: Portrait Drawings & Oil Sketches from Jacques-Louis David to Lucian Freud is organized by Landau Traveling Exhibitions, Los Angeles, CA in association with Denenberg Fine Arts, West Hollywood, CA.
William Merritt Chase (American, 1849–1916)
Self-Portrait
ca. 1911–14, monotype on ivory wove paper
William Merritt Chase was a prominent 19th century American painter who worked in many international styles, most notably Impressionism. He also had a lengthy teaching career. While best known for his oil paintings, Chase was a master of pastel and printmaking. This selfportrait, which depicts the bearded artist in glasses and formal attire, is a monotype, a printmaking technique that traditionally yields only one impression, hence the term “monotype.” A monotype is made by drawing on a non-absorbent surface (copper plate or sheet of glass) and the image is transferred onto paper by pressing the two together, usually in a printing press. Although subsequent transfers are possible, they differ greatly from the first print and are called “ghost impressions.” This monotype is a ghost print, and the first impression is in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC.
Richard Dadd (English, 1817–1886)
Imaginary Portrait of a Woman, Painted While in Bethlehem Hospital for the Criminally Insane
1860, oil on canvas
Richard Dadd is an English painter of the Victorian era who is best known for images of fairies and supernatural subjects and Orientalist (the term for Middle Eastern in the 19th century) scenes. He struggled with mental health issues (most likely paranoid schizophrenia) and became convinced that his father was the Devil in disguise. After killing his dad with a knife, he fled to France where he attempted to cause another harm. He was arrested and sent back to England, where he was admitted and treated at Bethlehem Hospital (the famous Bedlam) and later Broadmoor Hospital. This oil sketch of a woman was painted in 1860 during his 16th year of incarceration. Because Dadd was housed in a restrictive criminal ward, he would have had no access to a female model on which to base this portrait. The face seems to have been painted from life, perhaps of a jailer or a fellow inmate, but the feminine qualities of the composition, the long hair, and the sitter’s sheer garment must have come from his imagination.
Jules Joseph Lefebvre (French, 1834–1912)
The Artist’s Daughter Juliette, Dead with Flowers and a Lock of Her Hair
1881, graphite on green laid paper
This object is a reliquary that contains a mourning portrait of Juliette Lefebvre, one of seven children artist Jules Joseph Lefebvre had with his wife Louise Deslignières. A figural artist who championed the female nude, Lefebvre enjoyed a long and prolific career and was also an accomplished teacher and theorist. He made this graphite drawing of her after Juliette died, around age eight, and placed the portrait inbetween two hinged doors that contain flowers from her funeral and locks of her hair. Like other death portraits, it depicts the recently deceased lying in repose with closed eyes and focuses on her facial features. Postmortem portraiture was common in the 19th century, especially with the invention of the daguerreotype. This private devotional object remained in the artist’s family for over 120 years.
Anonymous
(English, early 19th century) Eye of the Beloved ca. 1820, watercolor on ivory
This is an example of a “lover’s eye,” or a hand painted portrait of a single eye set in jewelry. Wearing a lover’s eye was a way to keep a loved one close or memorialize a deceased loved one. This one depicts a man’s eye painted on a small piece of ivory around which are a series of circular amethysts. The popularity of these objects is attached to a tale of forbidden romance. When the Prince of Wales, later crowned George IV of England (1762–1830), fell in love with Maria Fitzherbert, a twice-widowed Catholic commoner, British law forbade them from marrying. They married in secret and exchanged miniatures depicting each other’s eyes as tokens of their love for one another and to retain their anonymity as lovers. Lover’s eyes became wildly popular in England from 1790 to 1820 and underwent several resurgences.
questions with .... Artist Eduard Angeli
The Society of the Four Arts is presently exhibiting Eduard Angeli: Cities on Water through April 2. This is Angeli’s first exhibition in the United States and The Four Arts is proud that the artist has conceded this honor to Palm Beach.
Cities on Water features eighteen large works depicting motifs from Venice, Istanbul and St. Petersburg, all places in which Angeli has lived or worked. Angeli (b. Austria, 1942) is a landscape painter in his favored medium of charcoal. His motifs derive from but do not copy nature. They instead convey ‘ideas’, or realities beyond appearances: ideas that Descartes would classify as ‘adventitious’ and which evoke hidden and mysterious sensations.
The Four Arts engaged in a Q&A with the artist in late January. Here are excerpts of that conversation:
Q: The works in this exhibition Cities on Water feature locations in Venice, Istanbul and St. Petersburg. How did you come to choose each of these cities?
A: After my graduation at the Fine Arts Academy in Vienna, I moved to Istanbul with my first wife, who is from Istanbul, to live and work there. I was always fascinated by the East and the Levant. After seven years in Istanbul, we returned to Vienna. In 2002 I made the decision to move to Venice and started living and working there permanently.
The connections between Istanbul and Venice in cultural and historical terms were especially attractive to me. After about fifteen years in Venice, I visited St. Petersburg on extensive trips and planned to move there. But I had to realize that living there would be too difficult. So the St. Petersburg series was painted entirely in Venice.
Q: Most of the works are large landscapes in the medium of charcoal. Why have you chosen to do larger works, and why use charcoal over other mediums?
A: The larger format has a greater effect on me and it also represents a greater challenge for me when painting. I like to use so-called “poor” material such as charcoal or red chalk, also because they are absolutely lightproof and the possibilities of charcoal in the black and gray shades are almost inexhaustible.

Eduard Angeli: Cities on Water is curated by Philip Rylands, President and CEO of The Society of the Four Arts, and organized by The Four Arts.
Q: Would you agree with Four Arts President and CEO Dr. Philip Rylands when he says that your “somber, deserted scenes express a delicious, sentimental melancholy”?
A: I agree when he feels that my paintings express a certain sentiment and melancholy. Since I was born and raised in Vienna and later went to Istanbul, Venice, and St. Petersburg, melancholy is very familiar to me.
I have chosen cities that were all once capitals of now defunct empires. But even generations later, the inhabitants feel the loss. And the lost grandeur makes this special melancholy palpable. And that’s what attracts me, that is something I feel within myself. The Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk describes the term “Hüzün” as a central element of the attitude towards life in Istanbul, the ancient Arabic word evoking an ambiguous sentiment of gloom and bereavement.
“I hope visitors will enjoy ... the unique atmosphere of the cities on water, the moods and color shades at different times of day and night, the calm of sunsets at the seaside and the traces that human activity has left behind over the generations.”
— Eduard AngeliQ: The Four Arts is proud to present your first exhibition in the United States. What do you hope the Palm Beach community discovers, enjoys, or takes away from Cities on Water?
A: I am very happy to reach out to art lovers in Palm Beach and the US with my work. Please do not misunderstand me: My art is not just gloom and melancholy — that is only one aspect of it. I hope visitors will enjoy what I most enjoyed when working on the motifs that never cease to inspire me: the unique atmosphere of the cities on water, the moods and color shades at different times of day and night, the calm of sunsets at the seaside and the traces that human activity has left behind over the generations.
Q: What are you working on now, and what can we expect to see from Eduard Angeli in the future?
A: I am currently working on new largescale work cycles of paintings and drawings for some exhibitions in the near future. In cooperation with a ceramist we produced a series of sculptural objects currently on show in Austria; we are preparing a new series for this year. There is also a new film project and a book in the making — so I am not worried about getting bored.
IN ALL OF NATURE’S GLORY

Schubert Revealed
The Society of the Four Arts Advisor for Classical Music Wu Han discusses her three-performance festival centered on the famous Austrian composer
No words can adequately describe what the music of Schubert has meant to me during my lifetime. Without understanding why, his works reduced me to tears as I played them in my youngest years at the piano, and through to this day they continue to reach the innermost part of my soul in ways both familiar and new. And I am far from alone when it comes to my feelings about Schubert.
Schubert led an unconventional life, for he famously professed not to care about anything other than music and his friends. Poor, in ill health during his mature years, and largely unnoticed except for his famous songs, he yearned for the kind of
immortality virtually guaranteed to his idol Beethoven. Undeterred by lack of money, exposure, or wide accolades, he forged ahead in the face of an early death to create some of music’s most timeless and beloved works, most first heard only years after he was gone.
This festival looks at Schubert from three perspectives: the relationship between his incomparable lieder and his instrumental music; his influences and their effect on his compositions; and the consequence of his last efforts, which afforded him, eventually, the immortality he hoped so dearly for, and a secure place in the Pantheon of musical gods.

Walter S. Gubelmann AuditoriumThe concept of fantasy took the artistic world by storm during the 19th century, and no one expressed the idea better than Franz Schubert, whose music ushered in the age of Romanticism. In a program that closely links Schubert’s genius in the art song genre with his memorable chamber works, we will hear how intrinsic the vocal line was to Schubert’s thinking, as well as experience a poetic imagination second to none.

Walter S. Gubelmann Auditorium
Little Franz Schubert (he was barely five feet tall) observed the towering composers of his time and drew inspiration from their works. The ever-present giant in his life was Ludwig van Beethoven, his idol both artistically and as a composer of lasting consequence. Schubert was also duly entranced by the virtuosity and lyrical wizardry of Niccolò Paganini, who led Schubert to believe that nothing was impossible on the violin.

Walter S. Gubelmann Auditorium
While much of the classical music canon is truly great, some works cross the artistic line into the realm of the transcendental. Schubert’s final piano trio (1827) which opens this program was the most massive and emotionally deep chamber work in the genre, comparable only to Beethoven’s final piano trio of 1811 (the “Archduke”). And to close this festival, we offer perhaps the most universally revered chamber music work ever composed, Schubert’s Cello Quintet, completed on his deathbed and filled with music so overwhelming that one can only wonder what the composer could have given us had he lived past the age of 31.

The program will include works by composers silenced as victims of the Holocaust and works performed by the Jüdischer Kulturbund.
The thoughtful and dedicated approach of the Sitkovetsky Trio has established them as an outstanding ensemble. Their latest recording of Ravel and Saint-Saëns trios was the winner of a 2022 BBC Music Magazine Award in the category of Best Chamber Music. “All of us in the trio are so thrilled to bring you two huge masterpieces of the Piano Trio Repertoire (Ravel and Tchaikovsky) in one concert, as well as a tremendously exciting new work by the young and talented Irish composer, Sam Perkin” said violinist Alexander Sitkovetsky.

Juho Pohjonen is regarded as one of today’s most exciting and unique instrumentalists. The Finnish pianist performs widely in Europe, Asia, and North America, collaborating with symphony orchestras and playing in recital and chamber settings. “Pearly touch, singing tone and sensitivity.... [Pohjonen] demonstrated his elegant musicianship throughout the program” (New York Times). An ardent exponent of Scandinavian music, Pohjonen’s growing discography offers a showcase of music by Finnish compatriots such as Esa-Pekka Salonen, Kaija Saariaho and Jean Sibelius.

Meet Nancy L. Hullihen, the Four Arts Chief Development Officer
The Society of the Four Arts is pleased to welcome Nancy L. Hullihen as Chief Development Officer. Hullihen comes to Palm Beach following more than four years at The George Washington University, where she served as Associate Vice President and oversaw development as well as principal and major gifts for the university’s Law School, Business School, and Athletics.
“I appreciate the time and careful thought the Four Arts search committee put into the recruiting process for this position,” Hullihen said. “Ambassador McElveen-Hunter, Robert Forbes, Dr. Guthrie, Dr. Rylands and Gloria Rex have all been so welcoming since I’ve arrived.”
Hullihen is familiar with Palm Beach county — prior to George Washington, she spent seven years working at the University of Miami in development for the Miller School of Medicine, the Miami Herbert Business School and on university-wide initiatives.
“I’ve lived in Miami for over 20 years and I look forward to getting to know Palm Beach just as well,” Hullihen said. “Now that I’m at the Four Arts, my goodness –I’m impressed with all the programming. I’m inspired by the amazing variety, so I feel like there’s something that appeals to anybody and everybody. Whether you are a casual aficionado or you want to go deep into something in the arts, there is opportunity here.
“The Four Arts is a great place for people to enrich their lives and pursue education, but also to find friends and meet people who have similar interests. There’s a lot of social activity that goes on. Whether you’ve been here for a while or you’ve recently moved to the area, it’s a good way for people to make friends and settle into a new community.”
Hullihen, a Pittsburgh native with a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Carnegie Mellon and an MBA in International Marketing from Thunderbird School of Global Management, has worked as a private wealth advisor for Goldman Sachs and in Cash Management for Citibank. Additionally, she worked for Merck in the International Marketing division and served as a Peace
Corps Volunteer in Costa Rica early in her career.
“I have a background in banking and finance and years of experience in development, so I can speak knowledgeably with donors about how their donation may have many benefits,” Hullihen said. “I have raised funds for academic purposes, for medical care and research, and I’m very excited to work in the arts for a community-based organization.
“At the end of the day it is about connecting people to something they are passionate about. I am looking forward to helping our members and donors who feel really passionate about supporting the Four Arts, whether it’s for a specific program or the improvement of the facilities.”
You may find Hullihen out cycling around town, enjoying the outdoors, perusing the King Library, watching the Pittsburgh Steelers, or taking her husband to the Metropolitan Opera screenings in the Gubelmann Auditorium.
“We are both looking forward to settling in and getting to know the area and the people here,” Hullihen said. “I think that the members who belong to the Four Arts have done some incredible things with their time and their talents so I look forward to getting to know them better.”
