FDR the Naval Art Collector

Franklin Roosevelt was an avid, lifelong collector of prints, engravings, and paintings illustrating the history of the United States Navy. He purchased this Emanuel Leutze painting of the privateer brig General Armstrong at an American Art Association auction in January 1926. It was a major addition to his large collection of American naval art.

Emanuel Leutze is best known for his famous painting of Washington Crossing the Delaware at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. His painting of the General Armstrong depicts the American ship in a battle with British naval forces in the Azores on September 26, 1814.

Roosevelt saw the painting listed in the auction catalogue and noted in pencil the maximum price, $150 ($2000 in 2016 dollars), that he was willing to pay for it. He then gave the catalogue to his secretary, Louis Howe, who attended the sale in New York City to bid for him. Howe often performed this task for FDR. Roosevelt purchased a number of naval prints and paintings at the sale.

After his election as president, FDR displayed this painting in the White House. In 1940, he lent it to the United States Naval Academy for a naval history exhibition.

[quotesfrommyreading]

One cannot escape the question by hand-waving at the past, disavowing the acts of one’s ancestors, nor by citing a recent date of ancestral immigration. The last slaveholder has been dead for a very long time. The last soldier to endure Valley Forge has been dead much longer. To proudly claim the veteran and disown the slaveholder is patriotism à la carte. A nation outlives its generations.

We were not there when Washington crossed the Delaware, but Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze’s rendering has meaning to us. We were not there when Woodrow Wilson took us into World War I, but we are still paying out the pensions. If Thomas Jefferson’s genius matters, then so does his taking of Sally Hemings’s body. If George Washington crossing the Delaware matters, so must his ruthless pursuit of the runagate Oney Judge.

al things considered — when i post my masterpiece #1151

first posted in facebook january 28, 2023

thérèse schwartze -- "portrait of lizzy ansingh" (1902)

"of crucial importance were the upbringing and training she received from her father, johan george schwartze [...] he had studied painting with no less a master than emanuel leutze before moving to düsseldorf for further study. like a modern 'tennis father,' johan began drilling thérèse from the age of five" ... cora hollema

"i will apply myself more to everything so as, with god’s blessing, to be able to earn by living by … painting, and i also hope i will not irritate you any more with foolish things, but will try to become a worthy daughter and to please you with my art" ... thérèse schwartze

"she exhibited a lot, received multiple awards and was a member of many artists’ associations and committees. one of them was amsterdamse joffers, women painters who met weekly to paint and show and discuss their works together. the meetings took place in thérèse schwartze’s house and she was a star of the group. llzzy ansingh, the artist’s niece and student, was a member as well" ... europeana

"yet no matter how favourable the reviews of her work were, there was often an undercurrent of condescension, particularly from male critics (as most critics were). this often took the form of extravagantly high praise, followed immediately by an expression of head-shaking amazement that such high-quality work could actually have been created by a mere woman" ... philip mccouat

"it was lizzy [ansingh] who has done everything she could to honor her aunt’s name and art after her aunt’s death in 1918. she initiated an idea for a commemoration exhibition at the stedelijk museum in amsterdam in 1919, made sure a street in amsterdam was named after thérèse schwartze and she founded the thérèse schwartze foundation, commemorating the painter, supporting dutch visual artists and preserving the dutch portrait art" ... europeana

"you make me dizzy, miss lizzy" ... larry williams

"the more i learn about art history, the more despicable i find HIStory" ... al janik

Hi! I love your blog. I’ve always been a fan of this meme, but I’m so curious about who drew the artwork at the bottom. It’s L and Light from Death Note, if that helps!

Thank you for your service! 🫡🫡🫡
