    Set in the pier between the two rooms beyond is one of two Boston bombé chests of drawers in the collection. This chest was the first of the two purchased and was located by Jess Pavey when the couple lived in Michigan. It descended in the Crowninshield family of Salem, Mass. In the mid-eighteenth century, the form was among the most extravagant because of the skill necessary for its production and for the amount of expensive imported mahogany that was planed away in forming the kettle-shaped sides. A small box set on top shares the swelled sides of the chest. Although purchased prior to their move to this house, the eighteenth-century looking glass perfectly fits the space. It descended in the family of General Nathaniel Greene of Rhode Island, one of three generals to serve the entire length of the Revolutionary War, the others being Washington and Henry Knox. 202 www.antiquesandfineart.com 9th Anniversary lifestyle A Sense of Place by Johanna McBrien photography by J. David Bohl deep respect for the history of this country and the material associated with its past is evident in the collections within A this private residence. The owners have spent over three decades acquiring exemplary forms and objects with impeccable docu- mentation and provenance. To help guide their collecting they have attended seminars and shows, gaining knowledge from both curators and leading dealers, and formed a large collection of reference books on American antiques. Over the years, they have acquired pieces from major dealers and through New York auctions. Two dealers were partic- ularly important in helping to build their collection, Jess Pavey and Wayne Pratt.

Ohio Sttite University Press $6.50 America, IXuaata, S>emp, anb Napoleon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 BY ALFRED W. CROSBY, JR. On the twelfth of June, 1783, a ship of 500 tons sailed into the Russian harbor of Riga and dropped anchor. As the tide pivoted her around her mooring, the Russians on the waterfront could see clearly the banner that she flew — a strange device of white stars on a blue ground and horizontal red and white stripes. Russo-American trade had irrevocably begun. Merchants — Muscovite and Yankee — had met and politely sounded the depths of each other's purses. And they had agreed to do business. In the years that followed, until 1812, the young American nation became economically tied to Russia to a degree that has not, perhaps, been realized to date. The United States desperately needed Russian hemp and linen; the American sailor of the early nineteenth century — who was possibly the most important individual in the American economy — thought twice before he took any craft not equipped with Russian rigging, cables, and sails beyond the harbor mouth. To an appreciable extent, the Amer­ ican economy survived and prospered because it had access to the unending labor and rough skill of the Russian peasant. The United States found, when it emerged as a free (Continued on back flap) America, Hossia, fiemp, and Bapolcon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 America, llussia, iicmp, and Bapolton American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1811 BY ALFRED W.

    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Salem Maritime National Historic Site Salem, Massachusetts Pickled Fish and Salted Provisions Historical Musings from Salem Maritime NHS Brookhouse Volume VII, number 5 October 2005 On the Cover: The Brookhouse home as it looked in the early twentieth century, from a postcard in the collections of the Brookhouse Home. 2 Pickled Fish and Salted Provisions Just across Orange Street from the Custom House stands a three- story Federal period brick structure on the corner of Orange and Derby Streets in Salem, Massachusetts. A well-patinated plaque attached to the front fence indicates it is a “Home for Aged Women.” Though curious, the description accurately represents the building’s present function, which it has actively maintained since 1861. Samuel McIntire and the Crowninshield Family But there is a much more of a story here than meets the eye. Listed in the Na- tional Register of Historic Places as the Benjamin W. Crowninshield House, it is a component of the Derby Street Historic District. The building’s design is at- tributed to Salem’s premier architect, Samuel McIntire (1757-1811).1 The building’s forward section was built between 1810 and 1812 for Benjamin W. Crowninshield (1777-1851) of the prominent Salem merchant family. Mr. Crowninshield was a member of the Massachusetts State Legislature, and the first President of the Merchants Bank of Salem (1811-1814). He served as Secre- tary of the Navy during the Madison and Monroe administrations (1815 -1818) and in 1823 began the first of his four terms in the United States Congress.

  • Index to the Proceedings by Ruth Canedy Cross
    Index to the Proceedings by Ruth Canedy Cross FOREWORD As might be expected, the forty-four volumes of Proceedings (1905-1979) covered by this index provide a solid background of history: the landing at and settlement of "Newtown[e]"; the allotment of land and establishment—and later alteration—of town boundaries; the organization and division of churches; the effects of war, from the early Indian struggles and the Revolutionary War to the Vietnam conflict; the growth of and changes in population; the rise and decline and subsequent revival of industry. Along with this, from almost the very beginning, runs the history of Harvard; "town and gown" have shared many of the same problems, and each has profoundly affected the other. All this is enlivened by first-hand accounts from diaries and letters and recollections by people who were there while it was happening. For example: In the 1630s, Governor Winthrop reprimands Lieutenant-Governor Dudley for "extravagance" in wainscoting his new house, to which Dudley replies that it was done "for warmth...and the charge was little." We hear of a "student rebellion" at Harvard in the 1660s, apparently over religious matters; 300 years later the issues are different but the sentiments are the same. An exchange of correspondence between General Heath and General Burgoyne in 1777 reflects their frustrations in attempting to provide decent accommodations for the "Convention Troops" held prisoner in Cambridge. Written in 1827 to her son Stephen, Louisa Storrow Higginson's letters (read by a younger son, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, in 1906 at the sixth meeting of the newly formed Society) paint a vivid picture of family life--with ten children of her own and two stepdaughters, she says of a neighbor's sick child, "he is a dear little boy and I longed to have him for my own to take care of." Four companies of Harvard students guard the Arsenal in 1861, this task being taken over by the Washington Home Guard during the draft riots of 1863.

Photography by Kathy Tarantola This May, the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) debuts In American Waters, a painting exhibition that reframes and expands our understanding of American culture and environment by looking at the sea. For over 200 years, American artists have been inspired to capture the beauty, violence, poetry, and transformative power of the sea. The exhibition, on view at PEM in Salem, Massachusetts, from May 29 through October 3, 2021, features a diverse range of modern and historical artists, including Georgia O’Keee, Amy Sherald, Kay WalkingStick, Norman Rockwell, Hale Woodru, Paul Cadmus, Thomas Hart Benton, Jacob Lawrence, Valerie Hegarty, Stuart Davis, and many others. In American Waters is co-organized by PEM and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. “As this exhibition vigorously asserts, marine painting is so much more than ship portraits. Through more than 90 works, we can trace changing attitudes about the symbolic and emotional resonance of the sea in America and see how contemporary perspectives are informed by marine traditions,” said Dan Finamore, PEM’s Associate Director — Exhibitions and the Russell W. Knight Curator of Maritime Art and History. “No matter where we live, the sea shapes all of our lives and continues to inspire some of the most exciting artists working today.” Collaborative and interdisciplinary, In American Waters combines art history, marine history, and even neuroscience to encompass greater geographical breadth, a George Ropes Jr.
