  • New York Painting Begins: Eighteenth-Century Portraits at the New-York Historical Society the New-York Historical Society Holds
    New York Painting Begins: Eighteenth-Century Portraits at the New-York Historical Society The New-York Historical Society holds one of the nation’s premiere collections of eighteenth-century American portraits. During this formative century a small group of native-born painters and European émigrés created images that represent a broad swath of elite colonial New York society -- landowners and tradesmen, and later Revolutionaries and Loyalists -- while reflecting the area’s Dutch roots and its strong ties with England. In the past these paintings were valued for their insights into the lives of the sitters, and they include distinguished New Yorkers who played leading roles in its history. However, the focus here is placed on the paintings themselves and their own histories as domestic objects, often passed through generations of family members. They are encoded with social signals, conveyed through dress, pose, and background devices. Eighteenth-century viewers would have easily understood their meanings, but they are often unfamiliar to twenty-first century eyes. These works raise many questions, and given the sparse documentation from the period, not all of them can be definitively answered: why were these paintings made, and who were the artists who made them? How did they learn their craft? How were the paintings displayed? How has their appearance changed over time, and why? And how did they make their way to the Historical Society? The state of knowledge about these paintings has evolved over time, and continues to do so as new discoveries are made. This exhibition does not provide final answers, but presents what is currently known, and invites the viewer to share the sense of mystery and discovery that accompanies the study of these fascinating works.

Ruloff De Kype [5] was born in 1510 in Alencon, Bretagne, France. General Notes: Ruloff De Kype was a warm adherent of the Guises, and took a prominent part in the Civil War between the Catholics and the Protestants. On the triumph of the Protestants, which occurred soon after the general massacre of the inhabitants of Vassey in Champagne, in 1562, his Chateau was burned and he fled from his home at Alancon in Bretagne to Holland with his three sons, where they lived for several years under an assumed name. In 1569, with his son Henri, he returned to France, joined the army of the Duke of Anjou, and on the 13th of March 1569 fell in the battle fought on the banks of La Charante, near Jarnac. By the care of his son, Jean Baptiste, who was a priest, he was buried in a small Church near Jarnac. The Church and grave marker were destroyed during the French Revolution. The Kip arms are represented on page before the title page. Sources: History of The Kip Family In America, by Frederic E.

I907. NO. I ' THE VAN RENSSELAER FAMILY. BY W. W. SPOONER. the early Dutch colonial families the Van OF Rensselaers were the first to acquire a great landed estate in America under the "patroon" system; they were among the first, after the English conquest of New Netherland, to have their possessions erected into a "manor," antedating the Livingstons and Van Cortlandts in this particular; and they were the last to relinquish their ancient prescriptive rights and to part with their hereditary demesnes under the altered social and political conditions of modem times. So far as an aristocracy, in the strict understanding of the term, may be said to have existed under American institu- tions—and it is an undoubted historical fact that a quite formal aristocratic society obtained throughout the colonial period and for some time subsequently, especially in New York, — the Van Rensselaers represented alike its highest attained privileges, its most elevated organization, and its most dignified expression. They were, in the first place, nobles in the old country, which cannot be said of any of the other manorial families of New York, although several of these claimed gentle descent.

New. $125 The first printing office in New Jersey was opened by James Parker in Woodbridge in 1754. At Parker's death in 1770, Quaker Isaac Collins moved from Philadelphia to Burlington and established the colony's second press. At the conclusion of his military service, Shepard Kollock set up the third press at Chatham in early 1779. With the return to peace in the early 1780s, printing expanded rapidly, and by 1790 New Jerseyans had seen the establishment, and in some cases rapid demise, of almost a dozen printing offices. In the decade of the 1790s, printing spread throughout the state, from Sussex County to Cumberland County, and by the end of the century, forty individuals had either been proprietors or partners in New Jersey printing offices. This bibliography records the books, pamphlets, magazines, newspapers, and broadsides issued from each of these presses. Part One treats all printing known with certainty to have come from an eighteenth-century New Jersey press. Each entry provides the full title, format, collation, pagination, expanded contents, paper and watermarks, type size, binding, references, inventory of copies located, and copy-specific notes describing each located copy.

  • The-Life-Of-Catherine-Schuyler
    WOMEN OF COLONIAL AND REVOLUTIONARY TZMESSsss CATHERINE SCHUYLER BY MARY GAY HUMPHREYS WITH PORTRAIT CHARLES SCRIBNER S SONS NEW YORK MDCCCCI PREFACE The period embraced within the years of Catherine Schuyler s life is the most exciting in American history. In its military aspect it comprehends the French and Indian War and the He volution. In its political aspect it includes the life of the Colony and the beginnings of the Nation. Through the position of her own family and as the wife of Greneral Philip Schuyler, she is a representative figure among the women of the Dutch Colony and the matrons of the Revolution. At the same time, in her own character she was so domestic, retiring, and unobtrusive that many of the details of her life can only be discovered indi rectly and with difficulty. The impression which a study extending over a considerable period of all the authorities has left will be discovered in this volume. 100321 PREFACE The authorities mainly responsible are the records of the Van Rensselaer family ; Lossing s Biography of Greneral Philip Schuyler and Field Book of the Revolution; Schuyler s Colo- nidi New York ; MunseWs Annals of Albany ; the Correspondence of John Jay ; the Letters of Abigail Adams ; the Diary of Tench Tilghman ; the Rutherford Papers; The Story of an Old Farm ; Mrs. LamUs History of the City of New York; the Life of Sir William Johnson, by William L.

When Howe victorious our weak armies chased, And, sure of conquest, laid Cesarea waste, . " Philip Freneau, An Address The original "Battles and Skirmishes" map was researched and drawn in 1945 by John D. Alden, then Historian of the New Jersey Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. In 1965 D. Stanton Hammond made additions and revisions for the society. It was Hammond who brought the map to the attention of the Bureau of Geology and Topography and the Bureau of Archives and History with the suggestion that it be produced for the Bicen- tennial. The Bureau of Archives and History provided the research, using Alden's original files as a starting point. The Bureau of Geol- ogy and Topography provided the draftsman and the technical car- topographic assistance. The intention of the map is to suggest the approximate sites of the various battles and skirmishes that occurred during the Revo- lutionary War rather than to pinpoint the exact locations. Along the same lines, this pamphlet will provide only brief descriptions of the actions, adding bibliographic references for more detailed information. The actual number of violent events that occurred in New Jersey during the Revolutionary War years can never be determined.
