Author’s Note

Ammi Phillips’s given name is from the biblical Hebrew, meaning “my people.” As he devoted a half-century to traveling the Hudson and Housatonic Valleys and capturing the likenesses of his contemporaries, it seemed a fitting title for a catalog of his work.

View from Mount Merino near Hudson, New York by Henry Ary, circa 1848. Brooklyn Museum.

Acknowledgements

From the outset, I was provided invaluable assistance and encouragement by Howard P. Fertig, who was generous in sharing his resources, insights and enthusiasm for this topic. I am also indebted to Deborah Kolar, whose editorial contributions and unwavering support over a decade of research made this effort possible.

Introduction

I commenced what ultimately became this work more than a decade ago, as what I naively thought would be a brief effort. My motivation was simply to gain a better understanding of the works of Ammi Phillips and where, and if, one particular painting fit into that continuum. In the beginning this seemed a straightforward undertaking. Ammi Phillips was, after all, the best known and most thoroughly researched of American folk portraitists. But the more I studied the less I truly understood. The totality of his work seemed difficult to grasp and his many stylistic periods difficult to reconcile. I soon developed a healthy skepticism as to whether the works of the “Border Limner” (the 1810’s), the “Kent Limner” (the mid-1830’s), and the stylistic twists and turns of the 1820’s were indeed all by the same artist, as was first concluded by Barbara and Lawrence Holdridge, with the assistance of Mary Black, more than 50 years ago. This skepticism was first aired by Dr. William Lamson Warren [CHS Bulletin, January 1966]. Keeping an open mind, I sought my own proof and evidence through further examples, and from those very few portraits which had contemporary attribution and dating. The three primary references on this topic were clear enough:

1) The checklist of 219 known works by Ammi Phillips, with 55 exhibit images, published by the Holdridges in conjunction with the first major exhibition of Phillips’s work by the Connecticut Historical Society [The Connecticut Historical Society Bulletin, October 1965].

2) The chronological list of 309 works, with 80 exhibit images, published by the Holdridges in book form in conjunction with a landmark 1968 exhibit of Phillips’s work at the Museum of American Folk Art [Ammi Phillips: Portrait Painter, 1788-1865].

3) The expanded checklist of 633 known works, with 50 exhibit images, researched and compiled by Howard P. Fertig, and published as part of the Museum of American Folk Art’s 1994 exhibit catalog [Ammi Phillips Revisited: Fifty Years of American Portraiture] by Stacy C. Hollander.

But there were problems in reconciling the information contained in these three important references. The 1965 checklist (19 pages) lacked descriptive information except for dimensions and published the 55 images (21 pages) in alphabetical order. This presented the reader with a bewildering juxtaposition of styles across more than 50 years of work. The 1968 catalog (9 pages) was presented in approximate chronological order, an impressive effort by the Holdridges, but still lacked descriptive information and the visual presentation (23 pages) was in no discernable order. Furthermore, the cross-references to the 1965 checklist contained errors and omissions, and some important information had fallen by the wayside. The 1994 checklist (19 pages), a huge effort by Howard P. Fertig, expanded the known works to 633. It provided occasional and limited descriptive information (e.g., “holds a book in right hand”) but lacked a numbering system or any cross-reference to the earlier checklists. It also omitted any provenance. The visual presentation (24 pages) by Stacy Hollander was, for the first time, organized in a logical manner and published in color but was limited, of necessity, to the 50 portraits included in the exhibit. Amid this confusion was a background of newly discovered works, new or altered identifications of subjects, and portraits of unidentified subjects being sold and resold under varying names and descriptive titles

So the task I set for myself was to create a new computerized database of the works of Ammi Phillips. One which would accurately cross-reference all three previous checklists, plus the Smithsonian Institution’s Inventory of American Painting, would include all known information on each portrait, including provenance and sale information, and would add those new portraits and subject identifications which had surfaced since the 1994 checklist. This led me to historical and genealogical research which would shed further light on the subjects, their dates and locations, and in some instances the descent of the portraits to present ownership. A major component of this effort has been not just an expansion of the attributed works, but a winnowing of duplicates, non-existent works and misattributions. Deletions were celebrated as of equal importance, if not greater, than additions.

Along the way, I added the objective of presenting 500 examples in chronological sequence, reducing or eliminating any discontinuity between stylistic periods, highlighting Phillips’s travels, which were less itinerant than I originally imagined, and forming a framework for further analysis. With a twelvefold level of coverage compared with previously available references, I believe that the comparative survey (Volume 2) provides a unique perspective on Phillips’s evolution as a portrait artist.

The result, which is not intended for profit or conventional publication, is envisioned to benefit specialized researchers on this topic. It is my hope that it will add insight and promote comprehension of a remarkable life’s work.

Catalog Description

Volume 1 lists every portrait, including some which are non-extant or misattributed (see Special Notice). These are first organized alphabetically, by the personal name of the subject (last, first). This includes identified subjects, tentative or partial identifications, and a few portraits which have been assigned arbitrary names by the owners. The identified subjects are followed by unidentified adult males, unidentified adult females, and lastly by unidentified children. Unidentified subjects are listed by the descriptive names which have been used in previous checklists or sale offerings.

Throughout, I have avoided the use of the term “unknown” as these were not anonymous or unknown people. They were well known to their contemporaries, and celebrated in life and likeness, but merely remain unidentified by us.

Catalog Index

For convenience of quick scanning, an index has been provided at the front, which follows the same sequence as the catalog. Identified subjects are listed by last name, then first name. Descriptive names are sorted without the use of “A”, “The”, “Portrait” or other non-descriptive words. The number given corresponds to the catalog entry number (not the page number).

Sources

The primary source for information is given in brackets following the information, using the abbreviation for the source Where conflicting information exists, especially as to estimated date or location, multiple versions are given, with each source indicated.

Numbering

Each portrait is assigned a sequential number, as given in the table of contents and to the left of each catalog entry. These numbers are also referenced in Volume 2 for unidentified subjects.

The numbered entry for each portrait contains available information in the following sequence:

Name

Each portrait name is given in bold. For identified subjects, the name is spelled in normal sequence (first and last). For married women the first, maiden and married surnames are given, followed in parentheses by Mrs. and husband’s name. For females whose portrait is believed to have been made prior to marriage, the maiden name is given, followed in parentheses by “later Mrs. (husband’s name).”

For numerous portraits, multiple names are given as the portrait has been identified and re-identified at various times. Putative identifications have sometimes been assigned to previously unidentified portraits. Alternatively, subject identifications have sometimes been lost over the course of time, and portraits have resurfaced with only descriptive names. In these instances, both the personal and descriptive names are given, but the portrait is usually listed under identified subjects.

Personal Dates

Where known, the year of birth and year of death of the identified subject is given in bold. This is based on historical and genealogical research on the identified subject.

Location

The town, county and state where the portrait was made is given, so far as it is known or surmised. Sometimes, multiple locations are given from different sources. In some far-flung instances, this may be the location where the subject or descendant resided at a later date, or where the portrait resurfaced, and may also be the result of a misidentified subject (see Volume 2 discussion on geography).

Date

The year (or date range) when the portrait was made is given, sometimes with multiple estimates from different sources. Where there is reason to assign a specific year, based on an inscription, a related portrait, or other information, the year is followed by an asterisk.

Dimensions

The dimensions of the canvas are given in inches (height x width). Occasionally, the source has provided only the framed dimension or only the visible (sight) dimension, and this is so indicated.

Related Portraits

Where the portrait is one of a pair, this is so indicated, with the name of the companion portrait followed by [q.v.]. Where the subject is also related to the subject of another portrait, this is also indicated.

Inscription (Inscr.)

Inscriptions which may help identify the date (e.g., a date on a periodical), subject (e.g., a name on a letter), or location (e.g., the title of a periodical) are always given. This may also include inscriptions on the back of the canvas (verso) or frame. Rarely, identifying and dated inscriptions are indicated on the front of the canvas (recto).

Description (Descr.)

Frequently, but not always, a description of the work is given. This may be limited to a salient feature Where a full description of the work is given, it is provided in the following order: Physical appearance, attire, pose, and accompanying objects. The pose includes the terms proper right (p.r.) and proper left (p.l.) which are from the subject’s perspective. Items appearing on the canvas, described as upper right (u.r.), upper left (u.l.), lower right (l.r.) and lower left (l.l.), are from the viewer’s perspective.

Condition (Cond.)

Where available, notes on the condition of the work may be given.

Biographical Information (Bio.)

Where known and relevant, biographical information may include the date and location of birth (b.), marriage (m.), and death (d.), place of residence (res.) at one or more census years, place of burial (bur.) or other information such as parents or other spouses.

Notes

Notes may contain any additional information regarding the subject or the work.

Provenance

Where known, the sequence and chronology of ownership is given, including records of sale.

I have taken the unconventional approach of including sales and dollar valuations in this catalog, as an integral part of the history of ownership, and as an indicative measure of the work’s rarity, subjective artistic merit, and significance over time. In the instance of auction records, the name and location of the auction house is given, along with the name and number of the sale, sale date (month, day and year), lot number, sale price (hammer price and buyer’s premium percentage, as available) or unsold, and the pre-sale estimate in parentheses.

References

Where mentioned or illustrated in periodicals or published works (except prior checklists), a citation is given. For infrequently referenced works, a full citation is given. For frequently referenced works, only the author and year are given, and the reader is referred to the bibliography.

Status

The status lists the last known ownership or disposition. For museum holdings, the accession number is given.

Cross-References

Cross-references to prior checklists, with the number used by each, are included as follows:

CHS: The checklist number as given in The Connecticut Historical Society Bulletin, October 1965. Owing to duplicates in that list, one or two numbers may be given.

H&H: The catalog number as given in Barbara C. Holdridge and Lawrence B. Holdridge, Ammi Phillips: Portrait Painter, 1788-1865 (1965). An asterisk following the number indicates that the portrait was included in the exhibit and published illustrations.

HPF: The portrait listed in the checklist compiled by Howard P. Fertig, included in Stacy C. Hollander, Ammi Phillips Revisited: Fifty Years of American Portraiture (1994). This checklist, contained in pages 61 through 79 of that publication, is unnumbered, so I have devised a reference as follows: Page number, column (A = left, B = right), decimal point, and entry sequence. For example, 73B.5 indicates the fifth entry in the right-hand column of page 73.

IAP: The control number in the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Inventory of American Painting. A large portion of this inventory resulted from a Bicentennial Survey conducted in 1976 and continuing for some years thereafter. Because the Smithsonian’s inventory process may yield multiple entries for the same portrait, as many as four different IAP control numbers may be given for a single portrait.

CAP: The reference number in the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery’s Catalog of American Portraits. A large portion of this catalog reflects museum holdings, for which the CAP number is the same as the museum accession number and is therefore omitted. Where it exists for private holdings the NPG-assigned CAP number is given

Special Notice (N.B.)

Special notice is made at the end of the entry for works which may be non-extant, duplicate entries, and possible or probable misattributions.

It is not possible, or desirable, to include the many works misattributed to Ammi Phillips by various sources. As essential information, I have included (and noted) only those questionable attributions in prior checklists. Additional questionable attributions in museum collections and by major auction houses are presented as unnumbered addenda

Thumbnail Image

Where available, a thumbnail image of the portrait is embedded in each catalog entry. This is provided as a visual reminder, and to prevent confusion between similarly named portraits. The reader is referred to Volume 2 for examples presented in approximate chronological and geographic context.

Abbreviations

For economy of space, abbreviations are used liberally throughout the text. A table of abbreviations is provided immediately following the catalog.

Bibliography

The bibliography provides full citations for books, periodicals, museum exhibit catalogs, dealer exhibit catalogs, manuscripts and other materials from which information has been gleaned. Auction catalogs, for which detailed sale information has already been cited, are not included in the bibliography.

91. William Cockburn (1798-1838) – Kingston, Ulster Co., N.Y., c. 1823 [DRA]. Descr.:

Handsome young gentleman with dark hair and eyebrows, wearing dark jacket, possibly with suede lapels, light-colored vest, high white stock without bow, upturned collar; seated facing p.r. in grain-painted armchair, l. hand cupped over a closed book held diagonally. Bio.: b. 15 Sep 1798 in Kingston, Ulster Co., N.Y., son of William Cockburn (1746-1810) and Catharina (Trumpbour) Cockburn (1743-1820); m. Anna Gardenier (later Mrs. Nicholas F. Sickles, 1798-1888); res. Kingston, Ulster Co., N.Y. (1830); d. 3 Feb 1838 in Kingston, Ulster Co., N.Y. (William Cockburn, Esq., in the 40th year of his age); bur. Wiltwyck Cem., Kingston, Ulster Co., N.Y. (William Cockburn, Esq., Counsellor at Law). Note: A very similar portrait of William Cockburn, attributed to John Vanderlyn (1775-1852), is in the ownership of the Senate House Museum, Kingston, N.Y. The poses are the same, down to the positioning of the fingertips. This leads to the speculation that either Ammi Phillips copied the John Vanderlyn portrait, or Vanderlyn executed an academic version of the Phillips portrait. The John Vanderlyn version (see Volume 2 Addenda) omits Phillips’s characteristic grain-painted chair and substitutes a black stock, not in fashion until the 1830’s, which suggests the latter. The subject portrait is cataloged by FARL as attributed to Nicolas Vanderlyn (1773-) with alternate attribution to Ammi Phillips as of 1966. [DRA] Provenance: Members of the Cole family of Hurley, who were cousins of the father of Judge G.D.B. Hasbrouck; given by them to Judge Hasbrouck, Kingston, New York; by 1949, his daughter, Mrs. G. Wallace Codwise [1887-1969], Kingston, New York. [FARL] Reference: Photo at Frick Art Reference Library, New York, N.Y. [Pennington Studio, Kingston, N.Y.]. Status: Location unknown. See Provenance.

147. Jane Bevier Deyo (Mrs. Abraham D. Deyo, 1813-1891), aka Jane Du Bois Deyo, aka Fashionable Lady with Shawl and Book – Guilford, Chenango Co., N.Y.

Notes: 1) Guilford, N.Y. [inferred by HPF from H&H entry for Abraham Deyo] correctly refers to the hamlet of Guilford in the town of Gardiner, Ulster Co., N.Y., not the town of Guilford in Chenango Co., N.Y. 2) This purported companion to the portrait of Abraham Deyo [q.v.] was unknown to the Holdridges in 1968. The subject identification is highly problematic. SPB and HPF identify the sitter as Jane Bevier Deyo, dau. of Ann DeWitt Bevier [q.v.] and Philip du Bois Bevier,

and the sister of Esther Bevier Hasbrouck [q.v.] and Hylah Bevier Hasbrouck [q.v.]. Jane Bevier Deyo was the dau. of Andries Bevier, not Philip Bevier, and was not the sister of Esther and Hylah Bevier Also, she was too young to be the subject of this c. 1824 portrait, a difficulty circumvented by HPF in estimating the date as c. 1835. This is possibly Mary Deyo Bevier (Mrs. Andries Bevier, 1785-1858), the mother of Jane Bevier Deyo.

171. Garret du Bois (1769-1802, see note), aka Young Man in Oval Frame, aka Jacob Griffen – New York, possibly [CHS] or Dutchess Co., N.Y.

Descr.: Ruddy-faced gentleman with tousled hair, wearing black jacket and vest, white ruffled jabot, white stock tied in front, upturned collar; facing p.r. with l. hand in vest, r. hand not shown. Notes: This painting was dubbed simply "Young Man in Oval Frame" by the Holdridges in 1968, not connecting it with the Garret DuBois in their 1965 list (CHS 48), disputing the identification as Jacob Griffen, and noting prior ownership by a Garret DuBois of New York City. Owner Charles du Bois (or son Garret) apparently named this portrait in honor of their Revolutionary War ancestor, Col. Jacob Griffen. The apparent date of the work (c. 182122) and the death of the subject in 1802 render the identification as Garret du Bois problematic. The identification as Col. Jacob Griffen (1730-1800), or his son, Jacob Griffen Jr. (1764-1799) is equally improbable. [DRA] Provenance: Charles du Bois, Fishkill, N.Y.

[NEA] The town of Seymour, Conn., previously Humphreysville, was renamed in 1850 in honor of Gov. Thomas H. Seymour, a native of Hartford, Conn., who served from 1850 to 1853.

Descr.: Long-nosed gentleman in black jacket and vest, white shirt, white stock with bow; seated facing p.l. in red scroll-back side chair, r. arm resting on chair back, casually holding quill pen in r. hand, with l. hand in jacket. Note: Discovered in Sheffield, Mass., dubbed "Mr. Sheffield" and exhibited as a relic of the Sheffield family, it was an early suggestion that this may be railroad magnate and Yale benefactor Joseph Earl Sheffield. He was a resident of New Berne, N.C. and Mobile, Ala. from 1807 until 1835, adding to the improbability of this identification. The town of Sheffield, Massachusetts was named in honor of the industrial town of Sheffield, England and has no special association with anyone named Sheffield. There is, therefore, no basis for assigning the surname Sheffield to these portraits.

[H&H] Note: The sitter is holding a copy of Dr. Samuel Parr's compilation of letters from Anglican Bishop Warburton to Bishop Hurd (published in 1828 as one volume of The Works of Samuel Parr). Parr was a noted critic of Warburton and Hurd, and had sought to embarrass and discredit Warburton via his unadmitted works. It is, therefore, highly unlikely that the sitter's surname is Warburton. The occurrence of the Warburton surname in 19th century census records for Charles City County (including Roxbury), Virginia is the apparent source of the incorrect locale assigned by an earlier owner of this (then anonymous) portrait pair. No place named Rockboro exists. The Holdridges (1968) rejected the possibility of these portraits being from Virginia. Stylistically, they relate to mid-to-late 1820’s examples from Orange Co., N.Y.

Bio.: See Anna [Annaetje] Eltinge Wynkoop – 1 of 2.

Note: The traditional identification is problematic, as the subject of this mid-1820’s portrait appears significantly older than his early 40’s. Harmen Gansevoort Wynkoop was a lifelong resident of Albany, N.Y. Phillips is not known to have done any work in Albany. The strong facial resemblance to Dr. Abraham Ten Eyck De Witt suggests that this could be the older brother of Dr. De Witt rather than his brother-in-law, specifically Johannes Andries De Witt (1758-1835), who would have been in his mid-60’s.

Arthur Leonard Olcott (1847-1855), aka Leonard Olcott, aka Lenny Olcott – Cherry Valley, Otsego Co., N.Y. [HPF], 1857*. Unlocated portrait. Posthumous. Presumably from a daguerreotype. Known only from the diary of his older sister Anna Marie Olcott [Dakin] (1835-1916). Bio.: b. 15 Mar 1847, Cherry Valley, Otsego Co., N.Y.; d. 1 Mar 1855, Cherry Valley, Otsego Co., N.Y.
