CATALOGUE OF THE THIRD ART EXHIBITION, AT THE ROOMS OF THE YOUNG MEN'S
ASSOCIATION, IN THE ATHENAEUM, TROY.
Troy; D.H. Jones: 1860.
A list of 7 marble statues, 179 paintings and 15 drawings; the title and
artist, and in many cases the current owner of the work, are also supplied.
The artists appear to have been mainly East-Coasty Americans, and included
Albert Bierstadt, Eastman Johnson, J.F. Kensett, A.B. Durand, Homer Martin,
W.T. Richards, Jasper Cropsey, Frederick E. Church, and many other
lesser-lights. The Troy Young Men's Association was formed in 1834/5. They
held their first annual art exhibition in 1858; the final exhibition was in
1862 at which point the young men of Troy probably had other stuff to worry
about. Softcover. 6.25"x8", 11 pages; original plain brick-red covers; some
soil and scuffs, a very minor gouge affects the last several pages along
the outer margin, not affecting text; spine cracking and very, very tender;
a very fragile piece. [08572] $150.00
