Portrait of a Man Attributed to Gaspare Traversi Italian At some point in its history, this portrait of an unknown man acquired the signature and date that appear across the right background: "Goya 1780." The unflinching, not altogether flattering, approach to the sitter might evoke the Spanish painter Francisco Goya (1746-1828), but this portraits firmly contoured outlines and slightly bulbous features are more convincingly the work of Traversi, an artist best known for his slightly ribald genre scenes, such as The Mets Teasing a Sleeping Girl (ca. 1760), in which the figures often veer toward caricature..

Artist: John Brewster, Jr., American, 1766-1854, Subject: Comfort Starr Mygatt, American, 1763-1823, Subject: Lucy Mygatt, American, 1794-1885, Comfort Starr Mygatt (1763-1823) and Lucy Mygatt(1794-1885), Oil on canvas, 54 × 39 1/2 in. (137.16 × 100.33 cm), The portraits by the itinerant deaf artist John Brewster open a window into the lives of New England’s merchant class. Here, the prosperous Danbury, Connecticut, shopkeeper, silversmith, and watchmaker Comfort Starr Mygatt poses with his five-year-old daughter, Lucy. The heart of the painting lies in their barely touching fingers. Stripping the scene of inessential detail, Brewster focuses attention on the unspoken bond between the relaxed father and the solemn little girl raising her hand to touch him. The emotion inherent in the gesture transcends the specifics of time andplace. , Made in Danbury, Connecticut, American, 18thcentury, Paintings
