A List of Portraits Painted byEthan Allen Greenwood

ETHAN ALLEN GREENWOOD is one of the mostcurious and more obscure figures in the history of

American art. Born at Hubbardston, Massachusetts, onMay 27, 1779, a son of Major Moses Greenwood, he showedto a marked degree the versatility and cleverness withoutgenius which was such a marked characteristic of theYankees of his generation. From his first recorded portrait,that of his brother Aaron, done in 1801, through his years asa school-teacher, an under-graduate at Dartmouth, a lawstudent, a practicing lawyer, and a museum manager, hepainted an incredible number of portraits which were, tojudge by the four in our collection, really creditable art. Thebest surviving account of his career is contained in the fol-lowing notes extracted from his diary by his "grand-daughter" (probably a daughter of a stepchild) Mrs. John(Marianne R.) Bartholomew of Barre, Massachusetts :

Went to New Salem Academy in 1798. Taught school in Athol fortwo months in 1799 at Í3.00 a month. In Aug. 1799 went to Princetonto study with Rev. Mr. Russell.

After the death of his father in 1827 he returned to Hub-bardston where he became in time selectman, representative,and State senator. He died on May 3 or 6, 1856.

Had Greenwood's diary survived, it would have been oneof the important documents for the history of art in America.In it he recorded many small things which illustrated thepractices of the artists of his day. This diary passed into thehands of Mrs. Bartholomew who copied out the list of por-raits which follows but, despite the pleas and visits of theofficers of this Society, destroyed the original in 1943. Shedied in 1945.
