Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings. 183. https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/tsaconf/183 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Textile Society of America at DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. It has been accepted for inclusion in Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Cheney Brothers, the New York Connection Carol Dean Krute Wadsworth Atheneum The Cheney Brothers turned a failed venture in seri-culture into a multi-million dollar silk empire only to see it and the American textile industry decline into near oblivion one hundred years later. Because of time and space limitations this paper is limited to Cheney Brothers' activities in New York City which are, but a fraction, of a much larger story. Brothers and beginnings Like many other enterprising Americans in the 1830s, brothers Charles (1803-1874), Ward (1813-1876), Rush (1815-1882), and Frank (1817-1904), Cheney became engaged in the time consuming, difficul t business of raising silk worms until they discovered that speculation on the morus morticaulis, the white mulberry tree upon which the worms fed, might be far more profitable. As with all high profit operations the tree business was a high-risk venture, throwing many investors including the Cheney brothers, into bankruptcy.

  • When Visitors to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art Read A
    1 “For Paintings of Fine Quality” The Origins of the Sumner Fund at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art On August 16, 1927, Frank B. Gay, Director of the Wadsworth Atheneum, wrote to Edward W. Forbes, Director of the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard, that by the death last week of Mrs. Frank Sumner the Frank Sumner estate now comes to us. I learn from the Trust Company, his trustees and executor that the amount will be upwards of $2,000,000 ‘the income to be used in buying choice paintings.’ Of course we are quite excited here over the prospect for our future.1 The actual amount of the gift was closer to $1.1 million, making the Sumner bequest quite possibly the largest paintings purchase fund ever given to an American museum. Yet few know the curious details of its origins. Today, when visitors to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art read a label alongside a work of art, they will often see “The Ella Gallup Sumner and Mary Catlin Sumner Collection Fund.” These visitors may well visualize two women—perhaps sisters, perhaps mother and daughter—strolling arm in arm through the galleries of the museum in times past, admiring the art and wondering what they might do for the benefit of such a worthy institution. They would be incorrect. The two women were, in fact, sisters-in-law who died fifty-two years apart and never knew each other. Since 1927 the Sumner Fund has provided the Atheneum with the means to acquire an extraordinary number of “choice paintings.” As of July 2012, approximately 1,300 works of art have been purchased using this fund that binds the names of Ella Gallup Sumner and Mary Catlin Sumner together forever.

    Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum Washington University in St. Louis Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts Spotlight Essay: Thomas Cole, Aqueduct near Rome, 1832 February 2016 William L. Coleman Postdoctoral Fellow in American Art, Washington University in St. Louis When the Anglo-American landscape painter Thomas Cole made his first visit to Italy in the summer of 1831, he embarked on intensive study not only of paintings and sculptures, as so many visiting artists had before him, but also of ancient and modern Italian architecture. In so doing he launched a new phase of his career in which he entered into dialogue with a transatlantic lineage of “painter-architects” that includes Michelangelo, Raphael, and Rubens— artists whose ambitions were not confined to canvas and who were involved extensively with the design and construction of villas and churches, among other projects. Cole was similarly engaged with building projects in the latter decades of his short career, but a substantial body of surviving writings, drawings, and, indeed, buildings testifying to this fact has been largely overlooked by scholars, Thomas Cole, Aqueduct near Rome, 1832. Oil on canvas, 44 1/2 x 67 5/16".

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.
