John Vanderlyn
John Vanderlyn is represented in this archive by a single oil on canvas, the portrait Egbert Benson. His work belongs to the portraiture tradition of the late eighteenth century, and the painting here dates from 1794. The collection thus offers one example of his handling of the oil medium during that year, a modest but focused glimpse of his practice rather than a broad survey of his output.
