| Here are three of the drawings that MT singled out for especial praise. In a letter to Beard, 28 August 1889, he referred to the first two: "You have expressed the King as I wanted him expressed; both face & figure are noble & gracious & set forth the man's character with satisfying eloquence. . . . I like the Yankee every time, and you have got him down fine where he is naked in the dungeon." And according to Beard, when MT saw the drawing at the right, he was "particularly pleased with this hut -- wanted to know how I knew what was in his mind. (It's a sod house from a sketch made out West.)" |
