    Extractions: Morris K. Jesup Fund, 1931 (31.109) Copley portrayed Hannah Winthrop's face, clothing, and setting with great care and skill, but the most telling objects in the picture seem to be the nectarine branch she holds in her left hand and the piece of fruit in her right. The vivid focus on the nectarine, a recently improved variety, suggests that it bears a symbolic relationship to the sitter's quest for self-improvement. In John Locke's theories of education, one's moral self was thought to be a clean slate awaiting inscription by life's education. Here, Mrs. Winthrop holds the sprig like a writing instrument on the surface of the empty table that bears her reflection, an allusion to her own life as an act of self-creation.

Revere, 1930 30.781 The silversmith Paul Revere was just one of the many patriots and loyalists painted by Copley in the years preceding the American Revolution, when Boston was a hotbed of political activity and Copley was its leading painter. The many portraits by this artist at the MFA offer an opportunity to explore Copley's ability both to capture personality and to render fine lace and fabric, polished wood and shining metal with extraordinary realism.

    Extractions: Copley was America's foremost painter of the 18th century. This portrait, painted just before he left Boston for England, represents Copley at the height of his power and exhibits the intensive realism that was the principal characteristic of his work at that time. Hannah Fayerweather Winthrop was an articulate and intelligent colonist, the wife of America's first prominent astronomer, a professor at Harvard University. Copley has rendered the varying textures of her muslin cap, silk dress, and lace cuffs with remarkable precision; in painting the table surface upon which she rests her hands, he demonstrated a degree of technical competence equalled by few of his contemporaries.

    Extractions: Pronunciation Key Copley, John Singleton , American portrait painter, b. Boston. Copley is considered the greatest of the American old masters. He studied with his stepfather, Peter Pelham , and undoubtedly frequented the studios of Smibert and Feke . At 20 he was already a successful portrait painter with a mature style remarkable for its brilliance, clarity, and forthright characterization. In 1766 his Boy with the Squirrel was exhibited in London and won the admiration of Benjamin West , who urged him to come to England. However, he remained in America for eight years longer and worked in New York City and Philadelphia as well as in Boston. In 1774 Copley visited Italy and then settled in London, where he spent the remainder of his life, enjoying many honors and the patronage of a distinguished clientele. In England his style gained in subtlety and polish but lost most of the vigor and individuality of his early work. He continued to paint portraits but enlarged his repertoire to include the enormous historical paintings that constituted the chief basis of his fame abroad. His large historical painting The Death of Lord Chatham (Tate Gall., London) gained him admittance to the Royal Academy. His rendering of a contemporary disaster

Educated in England, he was called to the bar in 1804. He attained notice by his successful defense of Arthur Thistlewood and James Watson (1817). He entered (1818) Parliament, became solicitor general (1819), attorney general (1824), and master of the rolls (1826). Between 1827 and 1846 he was three times lord chancellor. Although he defended radicals earlier in his career, in political life he was a Tory and a leader of his party in the House of Lords. See biography by Sir Theodore Martin (1883).

    http://earlyamerica.com/review/summer97/copley.html
    
    Extractions: C opley America's First Great Portrait Artist By the mid-1700's the portrait was virtually the only art form available to the American painter. Portraiture was in great demand in the colonies and was sufficient to support a small number of artists. WATSON AND THE SHARK Foremost among these was John Singleton Copley. Born in Boston in 1738, Copley was influenced by the mezzotints of his stepfather, Peter Pelham, and the portraits of local portrait painter John Smibert. Copley painted both the young and the aged but emphasized setting to convey the desired mood. Ladies posed before fine furniture and textured draperies; men were surrounded by books and tools, hunting dogs and guns. His style was straightforward and realistic, creating portraits of great strength. Among his many 'subjects' were portraits of John Hancock, Samuel Adams, John Adams and countless lords and ladies of his era, both in America and in London. Eventually, Copley wearied of Boston where, he felt, painting was valued only as a useful craft. The public was "entirely destitute of all just ideas of the arts," so he left for London in 1774. After the painter's obligatory tour of Italy and then settling down in London, Copley turned to historical and religious paintings on a grand scale. THE DEATH OF MAJOR PIERSON In London he exhibited his famous Watson and the Shark, depicting a real-life event that occurred in Havana harbor. The painting portrays Brook Watson, a friend of the painter, who, as a boy, lost his leg to a shark while his friends struggle to rescue him in the water. Today, this work is considered to be an early landmark of romanticized contemporary history painting.

    Extractions: You are in: Museum of Art Hall of American Art John Singleton Copley COPLEY, John Singleton , painter, born in Boston, Massachusetts., 3 July, 1737; died in London, 9 September, 1815. I le is commonly called self-taught, but he probably received some instruction from his stepfather, Peter Pelham, who died in 1751. Boston was then a small provincial town where art was almost unknown and good instruction unattainable. Young Copley began at an early age to see visions of lovely forms and faces, which nature impelled him to reproduce with such materials as he could procure or make for himself. In the uncongenial atmosphere of colonial Boston such talent was phenomenal, and, as he was really successful in producing likenesses, he soon gained local celebrity by executing portraits of many members of the leading families, as is still attested by almost every notable collection in the city. In 1760 he sent to Benjamin West, in England, without name or address, a portrait, which at once gave him a place among artists of recognized merit. This painting is known as "The Boy and the Flying Squirrel,"

    http://euro-art-gallery.net/history/copley.htm
    
    Extractions: Copley, John Singleton (b. July 3, 1738, Boston [Mass., U.S.]d. Sept. 9, 1815, London, Eng.) Generally considered the finest painter of colonial America, John Singleton Copley painted portraits and historical subjects. His Boston portraits show a thorough knowledge of his New England models, and his talent as a draftsman and colorist produced pictures of aristocratic elegance and grace (emigrated to London in 1775). Copley was born on July 3, 1738, in Boston, Mass., to immigrants recently arrived from Ireland. He began to paint in about 1753. His earliest works show the influence of his stepfather, an engraver, and the Boston artist John Smibert. In about 1755 Copley met the English artist Joseph Blackburn, whose use of rococo lightness and coloring he quickly adopted. He also made use of the rococo device called portrait d'apparatportraying the subject with objects associated with his daily lifethat gave his work a distinction not usually found in 18th-century American painting.
