PORTRAIT OF A LADY ATTRIBUTED TO MANLY NEHEMIAH WHIPPLE (OHIO 1814-1843). Pencil on paper unsigned. Bust-length portrait ca. 1840. Bust-length portrait executed in profile with wonderful detail typical of Whipple's portraits and the unusual inclusion of a bonnet and spectacles. Toning and some wrinkling. 10''h. 8''w. appears to retain its original molded poplar frame with its original black paint 11 3/4''h. 9 7/8''w. Whipple was born in Vermont and moved with his family to Granville Licking County Ohio when he was two. Trained as a stonecutter and sculptor the Old Colony Burying Ground in Granville has six stones signed by him and Whipple sketched a portrait of himself at work cutting stones in a log cabin (see Kern and Warwick ''Four Ohio Nineteenth-Century Folk Artists'' in The Magazine Antiques August 2007 figure 12). By the early 1840s he was working in Rossville in Butler County and advertised in the Hamilton Intelligencer ''Paint and Sculpture: M.N. Whipple would respectfully inform the citizens in Rossville and vicinity that he is prepared to execute Portrait or Bust likenesses in a style to please the people and prices to suit the times.'' His portraiture has only recently been ''discovered'' and while the the sitter is unidentified and the drawing unsigned the present portrait can be attributed to Whipple based on overall composition and style and in particular the rendering of the eyelid and eyebrow. See Kern and Warwick figures 1 and 15 as well as The Whipple Website (www.whipple.org). Toning some wrinkling NOT laid down retains its original poplar backboard held on by cut nails.
