PREFACE
This catalogue describes the paintings in the Gallery of Art of The New
York Historical Society, with two hundred and eighty-six miniatures,
comprising the Marié Collection and seventy-six objects of Sculpture.
The New York Gallery of Fine Arts, presented to the Society in 1858,
with paintings donated to the Society at various times, are numbered
1 to 488 inclusive. Any notice of this collection would be deficient
which should fail to commemorate the name of Luman Reed, Patron of
American Art. In this connection the Society was chiefly indebted to the
liberality and cordial coöperation of one of their most valued members,
who was himself the chief promoter of the original design of the New
York Gallery of Fine Arts, Mr. Jonathan Sturges.
The Bryan Collection, presented to the Society in 1867 by the late
Thomas J. Bryan, numbers three hundred and eighty-one paintings and are
designated by the letter B. before each number.
The Durr Collection, presented to the Society in 1882 by the executors
of the late Louis Durr, numbers, with subsequent additions, one hundred
and eighty-one paintings, which are designated by the letter D. before
each number.
Short biographical sketches of deceased artists represented in the above
collections have been added, together with indexes to Artists, portraits
and donors.
The Marié Collection of miniatures is arranged alphabetically by
subjects and is not included in the index of portraits.

LUMAN REED
Luman Reed was born in Green River, Columbia County, N. Y., in 1785,
and died in 1836. He removed when a boy to Coxsackie, N. Y., where he
was educated in an ordinary school at the expense of an uncle. Later he
was employed in a country store and subsequently became the partner and
brother-in-law of his employer.
He made frequent trips to New York City on a sloop called the
"Shakespeare," belonging to the firm, selling produce of the farms
around Coxsackie and purchasing goods in New York for his country store.
Later he became a merchant in New York and between the years 1815 and
1832 he gained a fortune. It was then that he began to gratify other
instincts and art attracted his attention. He became the patron of
American Art and sought the acquaintance of artists, interesting himself
in their labors, giving them many commissions for work.
Mr. Reed lived at 13 Greenwich Street, this city, the third story of
which building he used as a picture gallery, to which visitors were
admitted one day each week. This room was also a meeting place for the
artists and literary men of the time. The paintings after Mr. Reed's
death were purchased by his friends and subsequently constituted the
New York Gallery of Fine Arts which, after an uncertain existence of
about twelve years, was forced to close its affairs. Eighty of these
paintings, presented in 1858, are now in the possession of this Society
and known as the New York Gallery of Fine Arts.
The death of Mr. Reed was greatly lamented by the artists of his time
and his name has come down to this generation as the Patron of American
Art.

GALLERY OF ART
NO. SUBJECTS OF PAINTINGS. ARTISTS.
1-5. The Course of Empire. _Thomas Cole._
A series of five pictures, illustrating a nation's rise,
progress, greatness, decline, and fall, and the consequent changes
in the same landscape.
NOTE.--The isolated rock, crowning a precipitous hill, in the
distance, identifies the scenes in each of the series; but the
observer's position varies in the several pictures.
"First freedom, and then glory, when that fails,
Wealth, vice, corruption."
(_Reed Collection._)
(_New York Gallery of Fine Arts._)
[FIRST OF THE SERIES.]
1. The "Savage State," or "Commencement of Empire." (61½X39.)
The sun is rising from the sea, over a wild scene of rocks,
forests, and mountains, dissipating the clouds and darkness of
night. Man, attired in skins, is seen engaged in the wild dance
and the chase--the characteristic occupations of the savage life.
In the picture, we have the first rudiments of society. Men have
banded together for mutual aid. The useful arts have commenced in
the construction of the canoe, the weapon, and the hut; and we may
imagine the germs of two of the fine arts, music and poetry, in the
singing usually accompanying the dance of the savage. The empire
is asserted, to a limited extent, over sea, land, and the animal
kingdom. It is the season of Spring--the morning of the nation's
existence.
[SECOND OF THE SERIES.]
2. "The Arcadian," or "Pastoral State." (62½X39.)
Ages have passed; a change has been wrought in the scene--man
has subjugated "the untracked and rude." We now see the shepherd
and his flocks; the ploughman upturning the soil, and the wafting
sail; by the shore a village, and on the hill the ascending smoke
of sacrifice. In this picture we have agriculture, commerce, and
religion. In the aged man describing the mathematical figure, the
rude attempt of the boy in drawing; in the female figure with the
distaff, the vessel on the stocks; in the primitive temple, and the
dance of the peasants to the music of the pipe, we have evidence of
the advance made in science, in the useful and the fine arts.
It is early Summer, and the sun has ascended midway to the
meridian.
[THIRD OF THE SERIES.]
3. "The Consummation of Empire." (75X50½.)
The rude village has become a magnificent city. From the
bay--now a capacious harbor, with _phari_ at the entrance, and
thronged with war-galleys, and barks with silken sails--ascend
piles of architecture, temples, domes, and colonnades. The massive
bridge, the streets and squares, lined with palaces and adorned
with statuary, clustered columns, and sparkling fountains, are
crowded with gorgeous pageants and triumphal processions. It
is a day of triumph--man has conquered man--nations have been
subjugated. By wealth and power, knowledge, art, and taste, man has
achieved the summit of human grandeur.
The sun is near the meridian.
[FOURTH OF THE SERIES.]
4. "Destruction." (62½X38½.)
Ages have passed away since the scene of glory. Luxury has
enervated, vice has debased, and the strength of the mighty nation
has consumed away. A barbarous enemy sacks the city. The heavens
are darkened by a tempest, and the storm of war rages beneath, amid
falling walls and colonnades, and the flames of temples and palaces.
[FIFTH OF THE SERIES.]
5. "Desolation." (61X39½.)
The moon ascends the twilight sky, near where the sun rose in
the first picture. The last rays of the departed sun illumine a
lonely column of the once proud city, on whose capital the heron
has built her nest. The shades of evening steal over shattered and
ivy-grown ruins. The steep promontory, with its insulated rock,
still rears against the sky, unmoved, unchanged; but violence and
time have crumbled the works of man, and art is again resolving
into elemental nature. The gorgeous pageant has passed; the roar of
battle has ceased; the multitude has sunk in the dust; the empire
is extinct.

Dighton and Forrest whom I did suborn
To do this piece of ruthless butchery,
Albeit they were flesh'd villains, bloody dogs,
Melting with tenderness and mild compassion,
Wept like two children in their death's sad story.
_O thus_, quoth Dighton, _lay the gentle babes_,
_Which once_, quoth Forrest, _girdling one another_
_Within their alabaster innocent arms;_
_Their lips were four red roses on a stalk,_
_Which in their summer beauty, kiss'd each other._
_A book of prayers on their pillow lay:_
_Which once_, quoth Forrest, _almost changed my mind:_
_But O, the Devil_,--there the villain stopp'd."

Goosen._
Steenwyck was prominent in the early annals of New York as
Burgomaster, etc., under the Dutch, and Member of the Assembly,
Alderman, Member of the Council, and Mayor under the English rule.
This picture is supposed to have been painted at Haarlem, Holland,
1667-1668, at which time Steenwyck was visiting his sister,
the wife of the artist Van Goosen. It remained for more than a
century in the family of Colonel Anthony White, from one of whose
descendants--Miss Isabella J. Evans, of New Brunswick, N. J.--it
came into the possession of the Society in December, 1882.
The portrait is surmounted by the arms of Steenwyck, and below
it is a view of the city of New Amsterdam, from a sketch made about
1656. The head of Steenwyck, No. 265 of this Catalogue, seems to
have been copied from this picture.

THE BRYAN COLLECTION
THOMAS J. BRYAN
Thomas Jefferson Bryan was the son of Guy Bryan and Martha Matlock, his
wife. He was born at "Spring Hill," Philadelphia, Pa., about 1800, and
died at sea, May 14, 1870, on board the French steamship "Lafayette,"
while on his way to New York, four days out from Havre, France.
Mr. Bryan graduated at Harvard University in 1823 and studied law, but
he never practiced his profession, as he had an adequate inheritance.
Much of his time was given to foreign travels in forming a valuable
collection of paintings. For a time this collection, known as the Bryan
Gallery of Christian Art, was displayed on the walls of a spacious room
in a house on the corner of Broadway and Thirteenth Street, where an
admission fee of twenty-five cents was charged to view the paintings,
Mr. Bryan himself being the custodian in charge. He next deposited them
in the Cooper Union, and in 1867 he deeded the entire collection to the
New York Historical Society, which he catalogued, arranged and added to
from time to time until his death in 1870.

NO. SUBJECTS OF PAINTINGS. ARTISTS.
B-1. Virgin and Child. (15X13.)
The Virgin, clothed in a rich crimson drapery which covers
the head, holds the infant CHRIST on her right arm. The child
has a gilt globe in his hand. Over his head is seen the date of
the picture, MXC. It was brought from the East by the celebrated
artist, PAPETI, who was sent to Greece by the French Government.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-2. Triptique. (8X20½.)
A very remarkable and elaborate work; and of the highest
interest in the history of art.

B-3. A Virgin and Child, with four Saints. (77½X39½.) _Guido of Siena._
This picture is in perfect condition, and is from the renowned
collection of M. Artaud de Montor, in the account of which it was
engraved. It is described in the work of Gault de St. Germain (p.
51).

B-5. Knights at a Tournament. (24X24.) Round. _Giotto di Bondone._
The frame is as ancient as the picture itself, of which it
forms a part. It bears the arms of the Medici family. From the De
Montor collection--engraved.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-6. Virgin and Child. (12½X8½.) _Simone Memmi._
The head of the Virgin presents the same type as that
exhibited in the portrait of PETRARCH'S LAURA, painted by MEMMI,
which is in the Library of the Vatican. From the De Montor
collection--engraved.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-7. The Last Judgment. (12½X8½.) _Simone Memmi._
"CHRIST, with the cruciform halo, and the elliptical aureola,
bordered with cherubim, appears in the heavens. Above, two angels,
strangely enough colored entirely blue, sound the trumpet; below,
the Virgin and ST. JOHN kneel upon the ground, from which rises the
cross, on which two angels are looking. On the left, the elect,
wearing crowns of gold, mount towards the sky, under the protection
of a pitying spirit; on the right, the damned, covered with blood,
are delivered to the demons by a minister of divine vengeance.
JESUS himself wears a terrible expression. MICHAEL ANGELO is,
therefore, not the first to have given him this menacing aspect.
The general color of the picture pleases the eye by its extreme
fineness: the Virgin and ST. JOHN by the beauty of their types."
To this just and graphic description from the pen of M. Michiels,
which appeared in the _Gazette de France_, it is needless to add
anything more. From the De Montor collection.

ANCIENT VENETIAN SCHOOL
B-17. Virgin adoring the Infant Jesus. (18½X11.)
The Virgin kneels before her Divine Son. Around are angels,
and behind her is JOSEPH. Above is a company of angels; and, in the
distant sky, one is seen appearing to the shepherds. The infant
has a crimson, cruciform aureola. In this rudely-drawn picture the
future glory of the Venetian School, its gorgeous color, is plainly
indicated.

(_Bryan Collection._)
B-22. Adoration of the Infant Christ. (79½X5½.) _Perugino._ [_Macrino
d'Alba._]
The Virgin MARY, ST. JOHN the Baptist, ST. JEROME, ST. JOSEPH,
ST. MICHAEL, and the Pope JULIUS II., are kneeling before the
divine infant. Three small Angels, also kneeling, carry the nails
and the Cross, emblems of the torture which the new-born should
suffer. The CHRIST bears a striking resemblance to that of the
little JESUS, so much admired, in a painting of the same artist,
now placed in the Louvre, after having decorated the gallery of the
King of Holland. ST. MICHAEL strikes the beholder by his noble air
and his martial type. The head is evidently the portrait of GASTON
DE FOIX, the model of the chivalry of the day. ST. JOHN is the
lean prophet of the desert, the ascetic, and the eater of locusts
and wild honey. At the top of the picture, three Angels play upon
different instruments. In the background are seen the Capitol, the
image of Roman power, and the vast ruins of the Coliseum. The head
of JOSEPH, who stands behind ST. JOHN, must strike the considerate
observer by its close resemblance to the type of JOSEPH which we
find in the Holy Families of RAPHAEL. In the Cherub who holds
the Cross, we also find great similarity to the little Angel who
occupies so prominent a position in the famous Madonna of Foglino,
from the same divine pencil. From the collection ERRARD. Signed and
dated 1509.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-23. St. John, Weeping. (20½X16½.) _Leonardo da Vinci._
For the authenticity of this picture, we have the high
authority of Mr. Woodburn.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-24. St. John. (13½X10½.) Oval. _Leonardo da Vinci._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-25. The Birth and Resurrection of Christ. (11X19½.) _Raphael._
In the centre of the upper compartment, CHRIST, draped in
red, and bearing the emblematic banner of the Cross, rises from
an open tomb. His hand is raised with an expression of command.
On each side are two soldiers sleeping, and two starting away in
fright. A slender tree also is seen upon each side of the tomb; in
the distance is a large hill. In the lower compartment are eight
figures, besides the infant CHRIST. Six kneel in a semicircle about
the new-born Saviour, who lies in the middle of the foreground.
Three of these, on the left, are shepherds. On the right are the
Virgin mother and two Angels. Next to MARY sits JOSEPH; and on the
extreme left, a fourth shepherd approaches. Two slender trees here
also appear on each side of the composition. In the distance are
heavily undulating hills.
[Illustration: B-5. KNIGHTS AT A TOURNAMENT.
_GIOTTO DI BONDONE._
(BRYAN COLLECTION)]
Very few Raphaels of this period exist. Those which are in
the Vatican and the Louvre, show, in style and handling, an exact
similarity to these pictures, which is absolutely conclusive. The
donor wishes it to be understood, that, in his opinion, and in that
of some of the accomplished and practised experts in Europe, there
is not the slightest doubt of the authenticity of these pictures.
Only the inexperienced and the uncultivated fail to trace in them
the pencil of the divine RAPHAEL.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-26. Madonna and Child. (28X21½.) _Copy from Raphael._
An old and admirably executed copy of the Bridgewater Madonna.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-27. Dance of Cupids. (7X10.) _Copy from Raphael._
Nine Cupids dance in a ring. On the left, one plays upon
double pipes; on the right, another sits upon the ground. This
copy is very fine, as it may well be, having been made by no less
distinguished an artist than SASSOFERRATO himself.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-28. St. George, and St. Anthony of Padua. (47X22½.) _Gaudenzio
Ferrari._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-29. Martyrdom of St. Bartholomew. (17X28.) _Fra Bartolomeo._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-30. The Repose in Egypt. (29½X35.) _Giorgione._
No. B-17 is a specimen of the ancient Venetian style, which
should be examined in connection with these productions of the
glorious days of that school.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-31. Prince of Palermo--in Disguise. (22X17½.) _Giorgione._
Similar to that in the Royal Gallery of Naples, it is
distinguished by the Prince holding a flute, and not a staff,
a ring on his finger and an amulet in his fur cap. From the
collection of the Marquis Sommariva.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-32. A Concert. (31X37½.) _Copy from Giorgione, by Watteau._
Two men and a naked female sit in the open air, diverting
themselves with music. Another female figure peers at the group
from the shrubbery, which is not in the original, but found only in
Watteau's Pastiche, No. B-247.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-33. The Repose in Egypt. (32½X41½.) _Titian._
This composition was repeated many times by TITIAN, and
without great variation. This repetition is distinguished by the
absence of some figures in the background, and the introduction
of a rivulet in the foreground, and a butterfly upon a flower in
the right corner. It has twice been found necessary to remove the
picture from its canvas: the drapery of the Virgin has suffered
somewhat from this and other causes; the other parts of the picture
are somewhat injured.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-34. Portrait of a Lady. (43X40.) _Style of Titian._
From the collection of R. W. Meade, of Philadelphia.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-35. St. Jerome, in his Study. (39X29.) _School of Titian._
Probably a copy by ODVARDO FIALETTI, scholar of TINTORETTO.
This is a large copy of a print by ALBRECHT DÜRER. Its color shows
it evidently to be of the Venetian School.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-36. Virgin and Child. (43X36.) Oval. _School of Titian._
This picture came from the Gallery of Louis Philippe, and on
the back was written "_Dans la Chambre du Prince._"
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-37. Portrait of a Presbyter. (20½X16½.) _Tintoretto._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-38. St. Benedict. (91X54.) Oval Top. _Francesco Zucco._
The Saint is prostrate before an altar, receiving the black
stole from the Virgin: the head of the Saint is worthy the palette
of Titian. Signed and dated. Found in New York, by the donor.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-39. Abraham discarding Hagar and Ishmael. (24½X19½.) _Paul Veronese._

B-40. Portrait of Charles, Constable de Bourbon. (23½X19.) _Ludovico

B-41. Christ Shown to the Multitude. (45X40.) _Sebastiano del Piombo._
This picture, which is in very fine condition, and the
principal figure in which much resembles that in the famous picture
of _Christ looking into Hell_, in the Royal Gallery of Madrid, was
purchased by the donor in Rome.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-42. Virgin and Child, with Angels. (44X34½.) _Andrea del Sarto._
(_Bryan Collection._)
EARLY FLORENTINE SCHOOL
B-43. Virgin and Child, with St. John. (10X81.)
It will be noticed that gold is used freely in the halos, and
upon the draperies, which fall in somewhat stiff but ample and
not unpleasing folds. This picture is from the collection of the
Abbé GENOUDE, known as the translator of the Bible, by which he
accumulated a fortune.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-44. Adoration of the Shepherds. (35½X34.)
This picture is from the collection of the Sylvestre family,
and was once improperly attributed to RAPHAEL. It bears many of the
marks of GAROFALO'S pencil.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-45. The Crucifixion. (33X23.) _Andrea Mantegna._
Mr. Michiels, the distinguished critic employed by the Belgian
Government to prepare a history of Flemish Art, says of this work:
"The CHRIST has a nobility in his attitude which few painters
have been able to give him; the expression of the good robber is
also grave and dignified. The whole picture bears the impress of
a serene imagination; the coloring is sombre; the attitudes are
distinguished by an air of majesty. We feel that the artist had, at
the commencement of his career, severely studied the ancients. Two
cuirasses, and some of the draperies, are gilded; gold is mingled
with the other costumes, in the form of _traits,_ designating the
folds. We are particular about these details, because they indicate
the primitive epoch in which the picture was painted, and the
manner in which they passed from the use of gold grounds to the
entire abandonment of that metal."
It should be observed that the Jewish type is preserved in the
heads of many of the figures, which is the case of the works of
very few other masters. It will be observed that there are in this
crowded canvas no two pieces of offensive or defensive armor alike.
This is worthy of particular remark, as SQUARCIONI, the master of
MAN TEGNA, had the largest and most varied collection of ancient
arms which existed in his day.
Aside from its intrinsic merit, this picture is of the
greatest interest when considered in connection with the _St.
Jerome_ (B-47) by CORREGGIO, the disciple of MANTEGNA. In the
peculiar mode of introducing gold in the lights of that noble
painting, we notice an unmistakable similarity to MANTEGNA'S use of
the same material in the work before us; thus showing the direct
connection between the manner of the two painters.
It is impossible to overrate the historical importance of the
juxtaposition of this work of MANTEGNA with that of CORREGGIO.
There is afforded in no other gallery, public or private, in the
world, a similar opportunity to study the master and scholar side
by side in works of unquestionable authenticity and the highest
intrinsic merit.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-46. Adoration of the Kings. (19X14.) _Andrea Mantegna._
Found in Venice, 1859.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-47. The Virgin and Child, Mary Magdalen, and St. Jerome (known as the
St. Jerome). (19X14.) _Correggio._
Of this sketch M. Michiels remarks, that in it "burns in all
its grace the talent of _Correggio_. Never has the Ecstasy of
piety, or the fervor of religious affection, been better expressed."
This picture differs from the large one at Parma, in the
absence of the emblematic lion which stands in that by the side
of ST. JEROME; and also in the color of some of the draperies,
particularly in that of the canopy, which in this is striped,
while in that it is of one color. In this, too, we find gold
used in the halos and in the draperies, which is not the case in
the other; a fact which points to the earlier production of this
picture, and which also connects it in a remarkable manner with the
_Crucifixion_ by _Mantegna_ (No. B-45).
There can be no doubt that this picture is the finished sketch
for the well-known _St. Jerome_, at Parma. The marked differences
already alluded to in minor points, prove incontestably that it
could not be the work of a copyist, who would, of course, reproduce
his original with all possible fidelity. It is from the collection
of Marshal Sebastiani, it having been nailed firmly to the wall in
his bed-chamber.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-48. Virgin and Child. (34X27.) _Correggio._
In support of the authenticity of this picture, we have the
first authority in England,--that of Mr. Woodburn. The donor thinks
it may be SCHIDONE.

B-57. St. Paul borne to Heaven by Angels. (19½X15.) _Domenichino._
"Three angels bear aloft the interpreter of the divine will:
one has the form of infancy, another of youth, the third of
adolescence. The minister of our Lord raises his hands to heaven,
on which he gazes with an expression of burning hope. How he seeks
to discover the first rays of the eternal light! How he longs for
the moment in which he shall appear before the Almighty! What
enthusiasm animates his countenance! I doubt if the ardor of faith
could be better shown. The little angel has those brilliant eyes,
and that expressive visage, which this master knew so well how to
paint; it is certainly not inferior to those which we admire in the
grand salon of the Louvre. The angel of the second age charms the
eye by a grace and an easiness of attitude extremely remarkable;
upon his countenance burn the veneration and the love with which
the Apostle inspires him. The entire group seems actually to mount
in the air. Mr. Bryan had the good taste to purchase it at the sale
of M. Forbin-Janson."
To this just and graphic description, from the pen of M.
Michiels, which appeared in the _Gazette de France_, it is needless
to add anything more.
This picture was formerly in the gallery of the Cardinal
Lambruschini, and afterwards in the collection of M. Forbin-Janson,
Director of the Louvre, at whose sale it was purchased by the donor.

B-106. Portraits of the Burgomaster d'Eyselyhn of Rotterdam, and his
family. (41X59.) _Jacob G. Cuyp._
The landscape is probably not by CUYP.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-107. Landscape, with Figures. (24X20½.) _Guillam Dubois._
The similarity of many parts of this picture to the works of
RUYSDAEL is so great, that some dealer, more keen than honest, had
placed his signature over that of the actual painter. Upon cleaning
the picture, the fictitious signature, of course, disappeared, and
that of DUBOIS, with the date, 1652, was brought to light; and
hence results the unmerited obscurity of a landscape painter of no
mean powers who preceded RUYSDAEL, and whose works are important in
the history of art, as showing the origin of that Master's style of
treating foliage.

B-108. Landscape. (15½X21.) _John Renier de Vries._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-109. The Presentation at the Temple. (31X25½.) _Christian W. E.
Dietrich._
This is the first picture bought by the donor, in Europe.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-110. Abraham discarding Hagar. (28½X24.) _Christian W. E. Dietrich._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-111. The Crucifixion. (31½X20½.) _Anthony van Dyck._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-112. Portrait of a Lady. (42½X35½.) _Anthony van Dyck._
This picture belonged to General D'Espinoy's large and famous
collection of portraits. It was covered with the dust of time; and
the Cupid, which the donor found in perfect preservation, had been
painted out by some sacrilegious hand.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-113. Portrait of Charles I. (30½X39.) _Anthony van Dyck._
The monarch is represented on the same canvas in front,
profile, and three-quarter view. The object in presenting such a
picture was, as the reader will remember, to enable the Italian
sculptor, BERNINI, who had not seen Charles, to model a bust.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-114. The Artist in his Atelier. (12X15.) _Gerard Douw._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-115. The Continence of Scipio. (52X67.) _Gerbrandt vanden Eeckhout._
This is the most celebrated of the Master's compositions, and
is cited by Descamps as his _chef d'oeuvre_. His pictures having
been frequently changed into REMBRANDTS by picture-dealers, this
specimen is the finest and purest which the donor has met with.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-116. The Crucifixion. (15X14½.) _Jan van Eyck._
The cross upon which the dead CHRIST is suspended occupies
the middle of the composition. On the left, ST. JOHN sustains the
fainting Virgin, behind whom kneels the churchman for whom the
picture was painted. His name, _Fr(ater) Aurelius de Emael_, is
written in German-text across his figure. Behind him is a weeping
female figure; on the left is a group of dignitaries and soldiers.
A landscape, in which the towers of a distant city appear, closes
the scene. Underneath the left arm of the cross appears the legend,
_Vere Filius Dei erat iste_, in Roman characters of the epoch,
which ceased to be used after the time when the painting in oil
commenced. The forms in the CHRIST are somewhat meagre, but the
anatomy is remarkably correct and particular. The expression in the
faces of the several figures is marked. Modern art rarely shows us
finer expression. The picture is slightly but admirably restored in
the left arm of the cross, and a portion of the legend. It is of
unquestionable authenticity and the extremest rarity.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-117. Landscape, with Figures. (22X36.) _Jacques Fouquières._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-118. Landscape. (26X39½.) _Jan Glauber._
It is unrivalled by any production of the Master known to the
donor, and is worthy of CLAUDE, to whom it has been attributed by
some of the most distinguished experts of Europe. The figures are
by GERARD DE LAIRESSE.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-119. Castle and Seaport. (14X23.) _John van Goyen._
Bought in New York city.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-120. Dogs and Game. (16X21.) _Anthony Griff._
This little picture is a fair specimen of the Master.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-121. The Marriage of St. Catherine. (36X27½.) Oval Top. _Jan Memling._
The picture is in remarkably fine condition, and, aside from
its intrinsic merit, is important in the history of Art. When
purchased by the donor, its beauties were hidden beneath the
accumulated blackness of ages; otherwise a private American fortune
would have failed to obtain it, as the Director of the National
Academy of Brussels, partly suspecting its value, was a competitor
for its possession. It was purchased at the sale of the well-known
_Collection Quedeville_.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-122. The Annunciation. (17X17.) _Copy from Jan Memling._
This picture, as well as the preceding, is from the
_Collection Quedeville_, and was supposed, for a long time, by
some, to be an original; but a comparison of it with the "Marriage
of St. Catherine," just noticed, will soon convince even the least
practised eye of the error of this belief.

B-123. View of an old City on the Rhine. (18½X25.) _Jan van der Heyden._

[Illustration: B-116. THE CRUCIFIXION.
_JAN VAN EYCK._
(BRYAN COLLECTION)]
B-125. Landscape. (25½X30.) _Cornelius Huysmans, of Mechlin._
This is the finest easel-picture of this Master known to the
donor. One inferior to it in every respect was placed by the side
of a HOBBEMA at the exhibition of the British Institution, 1851,
and sustained itself.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-126. Portrait. (25X20.) _Karl du Jardin._
Portraits by this Master are very rare.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-127. Landscape, with Figures. (24X21.) _Karl du Jardin._
The signature is in script, _K. du Jardin_; an unusual one for
the Master, who almost always signed in Roman letters.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-128. Landscape: Cattle and Figures. (14X21.) _Jan Kobell._
Purchased in New York city.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-129. Portrait. (48½X39½.) _Sir Peter Lely._
This is the portrait of a sister to the Duke whose portrait,
representing him holding an orange, is in the Louvre, and which
was long attributed to VANDYKE; and the donor, with due deference,
declares both portraits to be painted by the same artist--Sir PETER
LELY. It is from the collection of DROLLING, artist.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-130. Portrait. (17X13.) _Nicholas Maas._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-131. Virgin and Child, with Cherubs. (13½X10.) Oval Top. _Jan de
Mabuse._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-132. Virgin and Child. (27½X22.) _Jan de Mabuse._
This picture in its composition and expression shows the
influence of the painter's study in Italy.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-133. A Triptique. (28X39½.) _Quintin Matsys._
Bodily rather than mental suffering is portrayed in this
picture by a painter who sought expression alone. His Misers, in
the English Queen's collection, is the connecting link between the
early and the more modern Flemish art.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-134. Boors regaling. (12½X9½.) _Jan Molenaer._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-135. Winter Scene. (31X44½.) _Nicholas Molenaer._

Bought in New York City.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-138. Portrait. (12X11.) _Jan van Neck._
This picture is from the gallery of Cardinal Fesch, at the
sale of which it was purchased,--but not by the donor,--as by
NETSCHER, the true signature being covered by the false one of
NETSCHER.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-139. Landscape by Moonlight. (24½X35.) _Arnold van der Neer._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-140. The Interior of a Cathedral. (14X18.) _Peter Neefs._
The figures are by Franck and the picture is signed by both
masters.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-141. Portrait of Madame de Montespan. (19½X15.) _Caspar Netscher._
The Duchess sits near a small table, playing upon the harp; at
her feet sits her son, the Duc de Maine. The artist has intended
to represent the lady as St. Cecilia. The anvil, hammers, and
balance, introduced into the painter's design, are allusions to the
discovery of the musical octave by Pythagoras, and also her sitting
upon a celestial globe typical of the music of the spheres.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-142. A Carnival Scene. Twelfth Night. (66½X92.) _Jacob van Oost._

Potter._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-151. Battle-Piece. (20X23.) _Augustus Querfurt._
The group of Hercules and the Lion standing upon a Pedestal
near the middle of the picture will remind one of RUBENS. (No.
B-161).
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-152. Portrait. (27X21.) _Paul Rembrandt._
This portrait is signed with the R., the early signature of
the Master. It was bought at the sale of the celebrated miniature
painter SAINT, to whom it belonged, by Mr. Roehn, the celebrated
connoisseur, and was sold by him as REMBRANDT'S to Mr. Jecker,
the same who left his important collection of prints to the
_Bibliothèque National_ at Paris.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-153. Tobit and the Angel. (18X13.) _Copy from Paul Rembrandt._
Copied by SCHUERMAN from the original in the Louvre.

The copy is also by SCHUERMAN, who died in 1847.

B-155. Portrait of an Abbé. (20X17.) _School of Paul Rembrandt._
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-156. St. John preaching. (29½X42.) _Theodore Rombouts._
In a former catalogue this picture was classed among unknown
artists. The donor has since discovered it to be by ROMBOUTS. From
the collection of General Desport.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-157. View of a Windmill on a Canal. (10½X12½.) _Theodore Rombouts._
Signed by the artist. Bought in New York city.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-158. St. Catherine. (38½X28½.) _Peter Paul Rubens._
There are but six pictures of this quality of color by
RUBENS, known to the donor. Three are in the Louvre, one is
over the painter's tomb, one is the famous _Chapeau de Paille_,
and the other is before us. It was brought from a church in the
neighborhood of Brussels, by NIEUWEN-HUYSEN, the elder, and sold to
the Count Perregeau.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-159. Christ bearing the Cross. (59X24½.) _Peter Paul Rubens._
This picture is especially valuable for historical
considerations, as being the only one which RUBENS is known to have
painted on cedar panel. It formed one compartment of a triptique in
the Cathedral of Antwerp. The centre compartment represented the
Flagellation of Christ.
The donor has the authority of Mr. HERIS for the authenticity
of this picture, and the locality from which it was stolen.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-160. Portrait of a Knight of the Order of the Golden Fleece. (44X33.)
_Peter Paul Rubens._
This picture is from the collection of Louis Philippe, King of
the French, and was supposed to be by VANDYKE.
(_Bryan Collection._)
[Illustration: B-160. PORTRAIT OF A KNIGHT OF THE ORDER OF THE GOLDEN
FLEECE.
_PETER PAUL RUBENS._
(BRYAN COLLECTION)]
B-161. Hercules strangling the Nemean Lion. (80X67.) _Peter Paul Rubens._
Several persons, whose opinions the donor highly respects,
have denied the authenticity of this picture; but he thinks that,
on a careful examination, its wonderful energy and muscular
movement can be attributed to no other hand, no other head, than
that of RUBENS. It is the Belvidere Torso--that only acknowledged
Master of MICHAEL ANGELO--put into action, and was doubtless
painted in Italy. It is known that _Rubens_ attempted to draw the
lion from nature, when he was irritated by his keeper. He made but
a hasty sketch.

From an old chateau in Normandy.

added, and to whom the picture belonged. From the collection of
DROLLING, the artist.

Collection of Marshal Oudinot.

B-173. Interior: Family Scene. (29X37.) _Jan Steen._
The patient is the painter's own wife; on the right are the
VAN GOYENS, (her father and mother,) and JAN STEEN himself stands
on her left, regarding the operation with interest.
This picture, which is superior to the only specimen of the
Master in the Louvre, was purchased from the Gallery of the Count
De Turenne, the last of the family of the celebrated Marshal.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-174. Landscape and Figures. (11½X14½.) _Jan Steen._
Signed by the artist, and bought in New York city.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-175. Incantation Scene. (14½X20.) _David Teniers the Younger._
This picture is unsurpassed by any other of the Master; and
if ever equalled, it is only by one in the Gallery of Madrid,
representing TENIERS himself, painting the portrait of the Grand
Duke Leopold and his family; a picture which makes painters wonder
and despair. Collection Sylvestre.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-176. Village Fête. (18½X28½.) _David Teniers the Younger._
Collection Marshal Sebastiani.

B-177. Village Fête. (17½X20.) _David Teniers the Younger._

preceding; probably executed in old age.

B-179. Charles V. leaving the town of Dort. (23X39.) _David Teniers the
Younger._
The Emperor, in full armor, is about to descend the steps of
a large building. The Archbishop gives him his blessing. Persons
of dignity, in church and state, are grouped on all sides. In the
background is the ship in which the Emperor is about to embark.
This composition is filled with portraits; among which, in the
figure bearing the standard on the extreme right, we recognize that
of the Painter himself. Collection D'Espinoy.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-180. Parable of the Laborer who received a Penny. (22X17.) _David
Teniers the Younger._
In which is introduced the portrait of RUBENS in his medal
chain, also the portraits of REMBRANDT and other artists and two
children of TENIERS. From the collection of Louis Philippe.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-181. Landscape and Figures. (9½X13½.) _David Teniers the Younger._
A wonderful effect, and familiarly styled by painters as the
"après déjeuner" manner. Bought in New York city.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-182. Portrait of William, Prince of Orange, (William III.) (30½X23.)
_Gerard Terburg._
This was supposed to be the portrait cited by Descamp as the
one which William insisted that the artist should paint; he being
a burgomaster devoted to the Prince's cause. It is signed "G.
TERBORCH," the only genuine signature of the Master.
(_Bryan Collection._)

Bought in Philadelphia.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-186. Landscape, with Animals. (9X11½.) _Adrian van de Velde._
This picture, though small, gives a just idea of the power
of the Master, from whose pencil the donor has never seen a
feeble work; though ADRIAN may have adorned with his figures the
compositions of inferior masters. This picture, together with the
small landscape by RUBENS (No. B-162), is from an old chateau in
Normandy.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-187. Landscape, with Figures. (25X33.) _Abraham Verboom._
So fine a specimen of the Master is rarely to be found. The
group of figures, by LINGELBACH, is almost worthy of WOUWERMANS.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-188. The Three Graces. (19X15½.) _Chevalier van der Werf._
From Hunter's collection, New York.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-189. Ruins, with Figures. (22X17½.) _Jan Baptist Weenix._
In the opinion of the donor, this picture, though striking at
first, is extremely false in everything, like most others of this
painter's works. It is from the collection of Cardinal Fesch.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-190. Travellers, by a River-side. (12X16.) _Philip Wouwermans._
This picture has, unfortunately, been much injured in many
places; but in the head and shoulders of the white horse may
be found a specimen of the Master's style of painting; and the
signature is unquestionably genuine.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-191. Departure of a Hawking Party of Nobles from a Baronial Castle.
(43X51½.) _Philip Wouwermans._
The largest picture in size and manner which the donor has
seen by this Master. From the Meert collection, sold in New York,
Dec., 1865.

[Illustration: B-199. ST. GEORGE AND THE DRAGON.
_ALBRECHT DÜRER._
(BRYAN COLLECTION)]
B-192. The Burning and Sacking of a Town. (21X19.) _Philip Wouwermans._
If not a copy, it is an early picture of the Master, and
though meritorious, gives no idea of the fullness of his powers.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-193. Landscape. (8X10½.) _Jan Wynants._
The equestrians and beggar in the foreground are by BARENT
GAAL. It is a fair specimen of the Master. Collection Giroud, Paris.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-194. Still Life. (7¾X10¼.) _Henry Martin Rokes._
It, as well as the "Sorcery Scene," by TENIERS, ornamented
the collection of Mons. Sylvestre, whose ancestors have been
either artists or connected with art since the year 1490. A noble
pedigree. This artist inherited the name of _Zorg_ (careful) from
his father.

On the right will be seen a Priest, holding a book, and
supposed, by General D'Espinoy, from whose collection it came, to
be a portrait of Luther, in his youth.

known as the earliest landscapes painted otherwise than as a mere
accessory to some historical, religious, or other subject. Both of
them are from the collection Quedeville.

B-220. Head of Christ. (15X11.)
It is upon leather, which was stamped and gilded so as to
form around it a strange quadrangular halo, in which _fleur de
lis_ is prominent. Upon the edge is an inscription, of which only
ADORO--REDENTOR, I. H. S., is legible. It is probably not older
than the latter part of the fourteenth century, and was, doubtless,
an object of adoration to some devout Catholic.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-221. Diana of Poictiers, as Judith with the Head of Holofernes.
(39X27.) _Martin Freminet._
The ornaments in gold, and precious stones, are from the
compositions of the celebrated BENVENUTO CELLINI, and have been
copied by modern jewelers.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-222. The Repose in Egypt. (36½X30.) _Nicholas Poussin._
The attitude of the Virgin is remarkable, not only for its
graceful dignity, but for its perfect expression of the fact that
she is listening calmly but intently to the narrative which Joseph
is evidently relating. The landscape, though not highly finished,
is grandly composed; and upon it the twilight of dawn is made to
fall with sweet solemnity.
(_Bryan Collection._)
B-223. The Daughter of Pharaoh about to bathe in the Nile. (25½X29.)
_Nicholas Poussin._
Two attendants are about to disrobe the Princess; a third
kneels at her feet with a vase of anointing oil. Before her is
a figure emblematic of the river. The group is finely composed,
and the forms and attitudes are simple and chaste almost to
statuesqueness.
Both these pictures display the knowledge of form, the
classical taste, and the color which are characteristic of this
Master, recognized as the _Peintre des Gens d'Esprit_. This
sketch is in the best manner of POUSSIN, and was formerly in the
collection of M. de St. Aubin.

The peasants in the foreground are designed after DOMENICHINO;
but the figure who leans against a tree, in the shadow on the left,
and plays upon a pipe, is like CLAUDE. CLAUDE was so conscious of
the want of merit in his pictures, he used to say that he sold his
landscapes and gave away the people in them. Collection of Marshal
Sebastiani.

The following described Pictures were STOLEN from the BRYAN COLLECTION
before it was received by the Society.
Cupid discharging an Arrow. _In the style of Correggio._
Cupid after the discharge of the Arrow--with finger raised constraining
silence. _In the style of Correggio._
Adoration of the Magi. _Leonard Bramer._
The Virgin, with the infant Christ and Joseph, sits in
front of a ruined building. Around them the Magi are grouped in
adoration. The distribution of the light in this little picture is
truly grand, and the color is rich and harmonious. The influence of
Rembrandt is apparent in every touch.
Vision of St. Louis. _Anthony van Dyck._
The sainted King starts from a canopied couch to gaze upon
the apparition of Pope GREGORY IV., who appears before him,
cloud-borne, and surrounded by angels. In the background is a
sentinel. This little picture is noble in style and harmonious in
color. The action of the figures is remarkably free and vigorous.
A Lace-Worker. _Peter De Hooghe._
A young woman sits by an open window, with her hands
resting upon the cushion on which is her work. The light falls
in a broad mass upon one side of her face and figure, while the
other is in the half-shadow of reflected light. This little
sketch, so unobtrusive in subject and treatment, will impress
the close observer with a sense of great power and thorough
knowledge--knowledge which is content to know without seeming
learned.
Miniature Portrait. _Balthazar Denner._
An old man, wearing a cap, and a breastplate over a rich
doublet. This head is painted with an elaborateness of detail
worthy of Gerard Douw, while at the same time it is modelled with a
free and learned hand.
(_Collection of General Count Turenne._)
THE DURR COLLECTION
WITH ADDITIONS PURCHASED BY THE
DURR GALLERY FUND
LOUIS DURR
Louis Durr was born in Carlsruhe, Germany, in 1821, and died in New
York City, March 31, 1880. His father was the Treasurer of the Duke of
Baden-Baden, and was a watch-maker by trade, as well as a dealer in
works of art.
Mr. Durr graduated from the Lyceum in his native city, and after
visiting Geneva and Paris, came to this country with his brother in
1848 and for a time was connected with Balbach's gold smelting works in
Newark, N. J. In 1853-54 he was established at 111 Nassau Street, this
city, as a refiner of gold and silver. In 1856 he removed to 51 Ann
Street and the following year to 53 Ann Street, where he carried on his
business as an assayer and refiner for many years with his brother.
He accumulated a fortune and spent all his spare time studying and
collecting works of art. He lived at No. 30 East 4th Street, where he
kept his paintings.
He was a member of the Liederkranz Club, then near his home, and became
a member of this Society in 1873.
By will Mr. Durr directed that the most meritorious works of art were to
be selected from his gallery of paintings and placed by his executors in
some public art gallery, to be known as the "Durr Gallery of Paintings,"
the residue of his paintings to be sold and the proceeds invested for
the purchase of suitable additions for the "Durr Gallery of Paintings."
In 1880 the executors of his estate under the terms of his will offered
the collection of paintings to The New York Historical Society, and in
1882 they were transferred to the Society, together with the proceeds of
the above-mentioned sale, which the Society designated the "Durr Gallery
Fund" and from which the Gallery is added to.

72. The Indian. _In marble._ _Thomas Crawford._
This sculpture is a repetition of the well known figure in
_The Progress of Civilization in America_, a group executed by
order of the Government for the Capitol extension at Washington.
"Resting on a low mound is seated the Indian chief, a
nude figure excellently modeled. His head, crowned with tufted
feathers, rests sadly upon his hand, the weary chase of life is
over, he is dying--the Great Spirit waits to conduct him to the
far off hunting-grounds, that dreamy land where souls repose in
boundless prairies. His tribe has disappeared, he is left alone,
the solitary offshoot of a mighty race; already the axe of the
backwoodsman disturbs his last hours; civilization, and art, and
agriculture--all mysteries to him incomprehensible--have desecrated
his home, and the dark shadows of the past gather him into their
bosom!"--_London Art Journal._
Purchased from the family of the Artist, and presented by
Frederic de Peyster, President of the Society, April 6, 1875.
73. Primitive Marksman. _In bronze._ _Fernando Miranda._
Presented by the Artist, February 22, 1911.
74. Ruth. _In marble._ _Henry K. Brown._
"The artist has chosen the moment in which Ruth is addressed
by Boaz as she stands among the gleaners. He quoted the lines of
Keats in the song of the Nightingale--
'Perchance the self-same song hath found a path
To the sad heart of Ruth, when, sick for home,
She stood in tears amid the alien corn.'
She is not in tears; but her aspect is that of one who listens
in sadness; her eyes are cast down, and her thoughts are of the
home of her youth in the land of Moab. Over her left arm hangs
a handful of the ears of wheat which she has gathered from the
ground, and her right rests on the drapery about her bosom. Nothing
can be more graceful than her attitude, or more expressive of
melancholy sweetness and modesty than her physiognomy."--_Extract
of a letter by Mr. W. C. Bryant, dated Rome, 1845._
This statue was purchased by Miss Hicks, of New York, and
presented to the New York Gallery of Fine Arts.
75. Group of a Boy and Dog; or, _Chi Vinci, mangia._ _In marble._ _Henry
K. Brown._
This playful group was presented to the New York Gallery, by
C. M. Leupp, Esq. The boy has left his bowl of milk upon the floor,
and the dog is endeavoring to take advantage of his negligence,
by appropriating the contents to himself, against which the boy
stoutly protests. They are so equally matched in strength, that the
struggle is of doubtful issue, and therefore the artist calls it,
"_Chi Vinci, mangia_," or, who wins, eats.
(_New York Gallery of Fine Arts, 1858._)
76. Bacchus. _In marble._
Presented by Mrs. Howard Townsend Martin, March 13, 1909.

Transcriber's Notes:
Obvious typos, spelling and grammar errors were corrected.
P. 218 changed Rembrandt, Van Ryn to Rembrandt, Paul as the
forename Paul was used throughout the text. The index should agree
with the text. However, it is apparent that the artist referred to
is actually the Rembrandt Van Ryn.
