Text Appearing Before Image:
222 AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS June, 1913
Text Appearing After Image:
A Silhouette portrait of J. Miers of Leeds. The advertisement on the back of this is here shown. The Silhouette to the left is on plaster and was made by Miers and Field files laid down on white paper or ex-tremely delicately tinted backgrounds. It is, of course, erroneous to supposethat the Silhouette proper always con-sisted of a cut-out profile. As we haveseen, some were painted in black onwhite paper, while in 1770 ChristopherSharp, of Cambridge, etched his por-traits on copper and ran off as manycopies as his clients desired. Thesewere called Silhouettes and in twentyyears this enterprising artist turned outtens of thousands of portraits. Thatthey were not very highly valued isshown by the fact that very few havebeen preserved. Distinct from the portrait of 1750,is that of forty or fifty years later.Like its fore-runner the profile waspainted in black, but in addition it hadvery wonderful and elaborate acces-sories. Beautiful as a miniature,
