EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Daniel Crommelin Verplanck, 1771" showcases the remarkable talent of American artist John Singleton Copley. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 125.7x101.6 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The subject of this painting is Daniel Crommelin Verplanck (1762-1834), a prominent figure from colonial America who represented Dutchess County in Congress from 1803 to 1809. In this portrait, a young and playful Verplanck is depicted seated outdoors against a stunning backdrop that has been identified as the view from his family's country house at Fishkill, overlooking Mount Gulian. As we observe this enchanting scene, our attention is immediately drawn to the charming presence of a squirrel perched on Verplanck's shoulder. This delightful detail adds an element of liveliness and whimsy to the composition while also reflecting the close relationship between humans and nature during that era. Copley skillfully captures not only Verplanck's youthful innocence but also his confident demeanor as he engages with both his surroundings and the adorable creature beside him. The artist's meticulous brushwork brings depth and realism to every aspect of this portrait, making it an exquisite representation of colonial American art. "Daniel Crommelin Verplanck, 1771" stands as a testament to Copley's artistic prowess and serves as a window into early American history
