Located in Fort Washington, PA
Chef in the kitchen cooking.
William Reusswig was a fine illustrator, and married to an equally fine one, Martha Sawyers.

They worked out of a New York apartment with two studios, where each could pursue their individual assignments.
William was born in Somerville, New Jersey; he studied at Amherst College and the Art Students League in New York. He was only twenty-three when he made his first illustrations for Collier’s, and then illustrated for most national fiction magazines, including Cosmopolitan, True, Redbook, The Saturday Evening Post, McCall’s, The Country Gentleman...

These recently re-united paintings are the most ambitious surviving baroque ceiling sketches made in Britain in the early eighteenth century. From the Restoration until the rise of Palladianism in the 1720s decorative history painting formed the preeminent artistic discipline in Britain. It was a field dominated by Continental artists including the Italian Antonio Verrio and the Frenchmen Louis Laguerre and Louis Chéron...

18th century allegorical painting of The Triumph of Beauty

London, Royal Academy, 1800, no. 93
What was happening in British history painting in around 1800? In recent discussions of the emergence of a British School of history painting following the foundation of the Royal Academy in 1768, this is a question which is rarely posed and one which is not easily answered. Examination of surviving Royal Academy exhibition catalogues reveals a profusion of artists’ names and titles, few of which remain immediately recognizable, whilst endeavours to explain the impact of exhibition culture on painting - such as the 2001 Courtauld show Art on the Line - have tended to focus on the first and second generation of Royal Academician, rather than young or aspiring artists in the early nineteenth century. This makes the discovery and identification of the work under discussion of exceptional importance in making sense of currents in English painting around 1800. Executed by Edward Dayes...
