Mrs. Robert Lowden Henry Inman (American, 1801-1846). Mrs. Robert Lowden, ca. 1840. Oil on panel, 32 11/16 x 25 in. (83 x 63.5 cm). In this portrait, most likely commissioned to celebrate the sitters marriage to Robert Lowden, Henry Inman lavishly rendered Jane Lowden in a red velvet gown. Such flattering likenesses, captured with exuberant fluidity, made Inman one of the most popular midcentury portraitists. Despite his success, Inman felt somewhat stifled by the “rage for portraits” and wished he could devote more time to painting landscapes or genre scenes, subjects that he considered of “higher and purer taste.” American Art ca. 1840

Lady with a Dog 1786 Mather Brown American The first American artist to enroll in the Royal Academy, London, Brown also studied under his compatriots Gilbert Stuart and Benjamin West.

Mrs. John Wendt Attributed to Thomas Hudson (British, 1701-1779). Mrs. John Wendt, ca. 1745. Oil on canvas, 50 1/4 x 39 7/8 in. (127.6 x 101.3 cm). In the mid-eighteenth century, Thomas Hudson helped set the standard for fashionable portraiture in London with works such as this one. The sitter is posed elegantly, holding a basket of flowers and wearing a voluminous silk dress adorned with lace, bows, and pearl details. This style of dress was very common in portraits of this era; depending on the sitter, it may have been a stock dress kept in the artists studio and used repeatedly to convey gentility and wealth. Deep blue was among the most popular colors for mens and womens fancy dress in the eighteenth century; here it may be an attribute of Mrs. Wendts fidelity, along with the collared dog gazing up at her.

(113.35 x 83.82 x 6.35 cm) (outer frame), Oil on canvas, France, 18th century, Cleopatra was the last great pharaoh of Egypt. She was capable of intrigue, murder, military action, and all manner of power plays. Becoming first the lover of Julius Caesar and then of Mark Antony (Roman politician and general), she gave enduring meaning to the term 'foreign affairs.' Cleopatra and Mark Antony reportedly continued their playful flirtations even after marrying. The story goes that she bet Mark Antony that she could spend ten million sestertii, which amounts to about 55,000 pounds of silver or well over ten million dollars, on a single meal. She served very simple dishes, and he scoffed at her effort. Then she ordered a second course, a single cup of strong vinegar. Cleopatra took a huge, fabulously valuable pearl and dropped it in the cup. The pearl dissolved, and s
