The Arlington Plantation American Gothic Carved Oak Bench, mid-19th c., by the “Stanton Hall Maker”, probably New Orleans, the triple back with crocketed spires, pierce carved trefoil crest, square pierced stiles, foliate arms with pierced uprights, conforming molded seat rail on square molded tapered legs, height 78 1/2 in., width 83 in., depth 26 in. $15000/25000 Provenance: Arlington Plantation, Franklin, St. Mary Parish, LA. Built c. 1830 by Honoré Carlin, and originally known as Eagle Plantation, it was remodeled by Euphraise Carlin in 1844 and renamed Arlington. Neal Auction Company is grateful to St. Mary Parish historians Paul Fitch and Steve Stirling for their assistance. Note: On August 30, 1986, Neal Auction Company conducted an on-site sale of the contents of the Sisters of Mercy Convent in Vicksburg, Mississippi featuring four American Gothic oak hall chairs, two matching sofas and a hallstand. The chairs and hallstand were identical to those original to Frederick Stanton’s grand antebellum mansion, Stanton Hall, in Natchez, Mississippi. This was the first time furniture matching the Stanton Hall pieces had ever been offered publicly for sale. Two additional chairs by the “Stanton Hall Maker” were sold in these rooms May 28, 1988. One of the chairs from the 1986 Sisters of Mercy sale is now part of the High Museum in Atlanta, Georgia; another is now in the Bybee Collection at the Dallas Museum of Art. Other pieces by the “Stanton Hall Maker” include a couch found in New Orleans conserved by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a couch at New Orleans Museum of Art, a chair in the Winterthur collection, a chair at Grace Episcopal Church, St. Francisville, Louisiana, and a sofa from a New Orleans collector sold in these salesrooms as lot 261 on April 5, 2003. This distinctive bench, exhibiting construction without traditional joinery for the construction of the back, three dimensional reticulation of square supports, and a low pointed arch forming the padded back, is certainly from the same workshop as the “Stanton Hall Maker” examples discussed above.
