These are the Soldiers and Sailors Monument (1882), the Lincoln, The Emancipator Monument (1902), the Red Jacket Monument (1890), and the McKinley Monument (1907). Each section contains historical context regarding the time period, critical events that influenced the monument, comparisons to similar monuments in the United States, and the narratives of the monument’s dedication and ceremonies. When grouped together, the historical context provided for each monument essentially plays into the motivations behind why each monument was erected. Lastly, the physical features described in each section demonstrates the ideas examined through the historical context of each section. In the past, Buffalo’s monuments have been individually studied. However, through this paper, the four monuments will be collectively studied and made relatable through what their patrons meant for them to symbolize. In doing so, this paper not only determines the motivations behind each monument, it also provides an insight to which groups of citizens controlled the commemoration of past events and historical figures in Buffalo between 1882 and 1907. iii State University of New York College at Buffalo Department of History and Social Studies Education Public Art and Patronage: A Collective Study of Four of Buffalo, New York’s Early Monuments, 1882-1907 A Thesis in Museum Studies by Drew Boyle Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts August 2018 Approved by: Cynthia A.

............................................................................................... 120 1 Chapter 1 Introduction In an article from the Buffalo Courier- Express dated from December 22, 1946, the city of Buffalo, New York wondered why World War II soldiers were not being honored with any monuments.1 The answer to that question was simple as the author of the article stated, “being cast in bronze isn’t the honor it used to be.”2 Dr. Andrew C. Ritchie, head of the then Albright Art Gallery, went as far as to calling some of Buffalo’s monuments “downright hideous” and credited the “living memorial” such as a hospital or playground as being the more popular form of commemoration.3 Furthermore, critics of the time period even went as far as regarding Buffalo’s monuments as “mediocre.”4 However, the deeper meaning behind this article is in the opening sentence: “Buffalo’s history and spirit is reflected in its monuments.”5 As seen by this article, by the 1940s, pubic monuments had seemingly fallen out of favor in the City of Buffalo. However, a digression back to the late nineteenth and early twentieth reveals a strikingly different sentiment regarding the city of Buffalo and public monuments. As a form of public art, public monuments such as statues, sculptures, and architectural works became prominent in the period after the American Civil War. Monuments during this time period began with memorials to Civil War soldiers but eventually stemmed off to commemorate other heroic

  • Xavier F. Salomon Appointed Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator of the Frick Collection
    XAVIER F. SALOMON APPOINTED PETER JAY SHARP CHIEF CURATOR OF THE FRICK COLLECTION Xavier F. Salomon has been appointed to the position of Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator of The Frick Collection, taking up the post in January of 2014. Dr. Salomon―who has organized exhibitions and published most particularly in the areas of Italian and Spanish art of the sixteenth through eighteenth century―comes to The Frick Collection from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, where he is a curator in the Department of European Paintings. Previously, he was the Arturo and Holly Melosi Chief Curator of Dulwich Picture Gallery, London. Salomon’s two overall fields of expertise are the painter Paolo Veronese (1528–1588) and the collecting and patronage of cardinals in Rome during the early seventeenth century. Born in Rome, and raised in Italy and the United Kingdom, Salomon received his Ph.D. from the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London. A widely published author, essayist, and reviewer, Salomon sits on the Consultative Committee of The Burlington Magazine and is a member of the International Scientific Committee of Storia dell’Arte. Comments Frick Director Ian Wardropper, “We are thrilled to welcome Salomon to the post of Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator. He is a remarkable scholar of great breadth and vitality, evidenced by his résumé, on which you will find names as far ranging as Veronese, Titian, Carracci, Guido Reni, Van Dyck, Claude Lorrain, Poussin, Tiepolo, Lucian Freud, Cy Twombly, and David Hockney. At the same time, he brings to us significant depth in the schools of painting at the core of our Old Master holdings, and he will complement superbly the esteemed members of our curatorial team.

  • 3.1901 Buffalo Endurance Run.2.Pdf
    The Morrisania Court fined David W. Bishop Jr. $10 after he was arrested for exceeding the 15 miles per hour speed limit. This was the very reason that the endurance run committee created a maximum 15 miles per hour speed as most municipalities at that time posted 15 miles per hour speed limits, or less! Photo from the September 18, 1901 issue of Horseless Age magazine. Stage One was dusty with deep and bumpy sandy ruts once the contestants departed New York City. The route was difficult to follow. In one village the speed limit was 4 miles per hour. Some hills were difficult to climb and then the downhill run the cars “frequently exceeded 25 miles per hour!” At the closing of the Poughkeepsie control at 9:30 PM seventy-five of the eighty starters had arrived. For stage Two the weather was good but the roads “varying from good to bad and treacherous.” Sixty-five vehicles arrived in Albany within the time limit. Wednesday September 11 the automobiles had to “slacken their speed” due to wet roads in the morning and heavy rain in the afternoon. All the vehicles “skidded to the point of danger.” 51 vehicles reached Herkimer before 9:40, the time of closing the control. Stage Four on Thursday September 12th was another day of rain. The “roads were mostly miserable in the morning with only a few fair stretches.” Tire and axle failure at this point of the endurance run was high. 48 vehicles arrived at the Syracuse closing of the control at 9:30 PM.

    Imprisoned Art, Complex Patronage www.sarpress.sarweb.org Copyrighted Material Figure 4. “The young men, Prisoners, taken to Florida,” Saint Augustine, Florida, 1875. Yale Collection of Western Americana, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, 1004474. 2 ❖ Copyrighted Material ❖ CHAPTER ONE ❖ The Southern Plains Wars, Fort Marion, and Representational Art Drawings by Zotom and Howling Wolf, the one a Kiowa Indian and the other a South- ern Cheyenne, are histories of a place and time of creation—Fort Marion, Florida, in the 1870s. These two men were among seventy-two Southern Plains Indian warriors and chiefs selected for incarceration at Fort Marion, in Saint Augustine, at the end of the Southern Plains wars. Among the Cheyenne prisoners was a woman who had fought as a warrior; the wife and young daughter of one of the Comanche men also went to Florida, but not as prisoners. During their three years in exile, Zotom, Howling Wolf, and many of the other younger men made pictures narrating incidents of life on the Great Plains, their journey to Florida, and life at Fort Marion. The drawings explored in this book also have a history subsequent to their creation, a history connected to the patron of the drawings and her ownership of them. Other audiences who have seen and studied Zotom’s and Howling Wolf’s drawings are part of the works’ continuing histories, too. Plains Indian drawings and paintings, including works created by men imprisoned at Fort Marion, were visual narratives, intended to tell stories. Those stories still live, for history is, simply put, composed of stories about the past.
