190.William Bradford (American, 1823-1892)

Portrait of the Whaleship Young Hector off Clark’s Point, New Bedford. Unsigned, the ship identified on a fragment of paper affixed tothe stretcher. Oil on canvas, 20 x 30 in., in the original molded giltwood frame. Condition: Relined, scattered retouch, primarily to sky andwater.

Provenance: According to the consignor, her mother purchased this painting in the early 1970s from Otto Zenke, a leading 20th-centurydesigner from Greensboro, North Carolina.

Note: According to a note affixed to the stretcher the “Young Hector was built by William Howland at Padanaram near New Bedford,Massachusetts, in 1850 at the expense of $50,000.”

William Bradford was born and raised in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, across the harbor from New Bedford, the home to the nation’s largestwhaling fleet. In 1852, after a failed clothing retail venture, a demise caused by his own admission because he “painted too much,” he tookup painting ship portraits as a profession. In 1854 he set up a studio in Fairhaven, where he collaborated with the Dutch artist Albert VanBeest, who became a mentor and teacher until his death in 1860. Bradford accepted commissions from local mariners, and, following astandard formula of port painters of the time, he accurately and painstakingly depicted the whaleships of New Bedford and Fairhaven andeventually the clipper ships of Boston. In the 1860s, Bradford’s interests shifted northward, and he began traveling to Labrador, Nova Scotiaand Greenland to paint and photograph the arctic regions. He published a book about these travels in London and in 1882 received a royalcommission from Queen Victoria. Bradford eventually set up a studio in San Francisco to paint the natural wonders of the American West.He later returned east to New York City, where he died in 1892.

This painting of the Young Hector, from early in Bradford’s career, most closely resembles that of the Whaleship Jireh Perry off Clark’s Point,New Bedford, which is illustrated in the exhibition catalogue William Bradford: Sailing Ships and Arctic Scenes by Richard C. Kugler, NewBedford Whaling Museum in association with The University of Washington Press, Seattle, 2003, p. 89, fig. 1.

Another paper label attached to the stretcher reads, “Property of Willard Straight.” Willard Straight was born in 1880 in Oswego, New York.Early in his life, both his parents contracted tuberculosis and died, and the young boy was adopted by family friends. After graduating fromCornell University in 1901, Straight began a career with the Chinese Imperial Maritime Customs Service. This position gave him entrance tothe diplomatic world of the Far East. After the Russo-Japanese War, during which he served as a Reuters correspondent, he held diplomaticpositions in Korea, Cuba and China. His work caught the attention of leaders at J.P. Morgan, who hired him as their Far East analyst. In1911 he married American heiress Dorothy Payne Whitney. With her financing, she, Straight, and their close friend Herbert Croly foundedthe progressive magazine The New Republic in 1914. When the United States entered the First World War, he became active in thePreparedness Movement and joined the army. He was sent to France, where he died in the influenza outbreak in 1918. His widow thencarried out his request to carry on his support of Cornell, overseeing the construction of Willard Straight Hall.

Walter Hamor Piston Jr. (1894-1976) was born in Rockland, Maine,and was a Pulitzer Prize-winning composer and music theorist.Shortly after graduating from Harvard University, he joined the facultythere and taught numerous influential composers including LeonardBernstein. In 1937 Piston wrote his Symphony No. 1, and conductedits premiere with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1938. In 1943,Columbia University commissioned Piston’s Symphony No. 2, whichwas premiered by the National Symphony Orchestra and wasawarded a prize by the New York Music Critics’ Circle. His nextsymphony, the Third, earned a Pulitzer Prize, as did his SymphonyNo. 7.

Piston wrote four books on the technical aspects of music theorywhich are considered to be classics in their respective fields:Principles of Harmonic Analysis, Counterpoint, Orchestration, andHarmony. The last of these went through four editions in the author’slifetime, was translated into several languages, and is still widely usedby teachers and students of harmony.

Mr. Piston gifted two Steinways, his Pulitzer Medal, and many of hismusical scores, manuscripts, and books to the Boston Public Libraryaround 1976.
