  • The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 1 Editorial
    Nineteenth Ce ntury The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 1 Editorial The Artist’s Shadow The Winter Show at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City is always a feast for the eyes. Dazzling works of art, decorative arts, and sculpture appear that we might never see again. During a tour of this pop-up museum in January I paused at the booth of the Alexander Gallery where a painting caught my eye. It was an 1812 portrait of two endearing native-New Yorkers Schuyler Ogden and his sister, the grand-nephew and grand-niece of General Stephen Van Rensselaer. I am always sure that exhibitors at such shows can distinguish the buyers from the voyeurs in a few seconds but that did not prevent the gallery owner from engaging with me in a lively conversation about Fresh Raspberries . It was clear he had considerable affection for the piece. Were I a buyer, I would have very happily bought this little confection then and there. The boy, with his plate of fresh picked berries, reminds me of myself at that very age. These are not something purchased at a market. These are berries he and his sister have freshly picked just as they were when my sisters and I used to bring bowls of raspberries back to our grandmother from her berry patch, which she would then make into jam. I have no doubt Master Ogden and his beribboned sister are on their way to present their harvest to welcoming hands. As I walked away, I turned one last time to bid them adieu and that is when I saw its painter, George Harvey.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission April 12, 1983 Designation List 164 LP-1226 PUCK BUILDING, 295-309 Lafayette Street, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1885-86; addition 1892-93; architect Albert Wagner. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 510, Lot 45. On November 18, 1980, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landuark of the Puck Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.l2). The hearing was continued to Februrary 10, 1981 (Item No.5). Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Five witnesses. spoke in favor of designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Puck Building, originally the horne of Puck magazine, is one of the great surviving buildings from New York's old publishing and printing district. The red-brick round-arched structure occupies the entire block bounded by East Houston, Lafayette, Mulberry and Jersey Streets, and has been one of the most prominent architectural presences in the area since its construction one hundred years ago. The building is further distinguished by the large statue of Puck at the building's East Houston and Mulberry Street corner; this is among the city's most conspicuous pieces of architectural sculpture. Puck was, from its founding in 1876 until its demise in 1918, the city's and one of the country's best-kno;vn humor magazines. Published in both English­ and German-language editions, Puck satirized most of the public events of the day. The magazine featured color lithographic cartoons produced by the J.
