Silhouette of MissAlsop. Artist: Unknown

Cameo of a Gentleman ca. 1850 Erastus Dow Palmer American During the early years of his career, Palmer is estimated to have produced over a hundred miniature cameos. These small low-relief portraits were cut in shell and were often duplicated in plaster by means of a wax mold. Twelve plaster casts (1983.519.1-.12), all of men, are mounted in an oval in a shadow box. Only three of the sitters have been identified: Mason Fitch Cogwsell (1807-1865), an Albany physician; John J. Francis (ca. 1810-1877) of Utica; and John Nichols Wilder (1813-1858), one of the founders of the University of Rochester. Three are the same portrait, although the identity of the sitter is unknown. The sculptors signature appears on two of the unidentified portraits. Studied together, these cameos reveal Palmer's special talent for rendering a gallery of Americans with a surprising variety of expression and character considering their intimate format..

Paper Silhouette Portrait of a Woman. Artist: Unknown (American); After T. P. Jones (American). Dimensions: Image: 8.3 x 7 cm (3 1/4 x 2 3/4 in.). Date: 1840s-50s.Silhouettes and photographs share a similar origin in the cast shadow. Tracing a person's shadow created a silhouette portrait that served as an enduring reminder of a fleeting presence-an elegy based on the simple principles of light and dark-while fixing a shadow chemically resulted in some of the earliest known photographs, which were themselves silhouettes of leaves placed directly on sensitized paper. However, the first photographic process, unveiled in 1839, was the daguerreotype, which produced a unique image on a highly polished sheet of copper. The daguerreotype quickly became popular for portraiture and began to encroach upon the territory of talented miniature painters and silhouettists such as T. P. Jones, the maker of the silhouette reproduced in this daguerreotype. This object is essentially a portrait of a p
