The best American miniatures were made by Edward Greene Malbone, who with precision of draftsmanship and a unique harmony of colors could portray the lofty assurance of Philanthropist Thomas Russell, wealthy New England merchant, or the visionary romanticism of Painter Washington Allston. Fine miniatures were also done by Sarah Goodridge, who painted...
