Here, Benjamin Eakins (1818–1899) has copied a document in an old-fashioned “copperplate” script. The father’s wise financial investments allowed Eakins to focus on his art exclusive of sales. This serious and affectionate portrayal of an aging craftsman reveals the painter’s skills of observation and description. The portrait was among ten paintings exhibited at the Chicago fair by Eakins, one of the few American artists accorded such an honor by a jury of peers.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/10828\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - The Writing Master\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Eakins","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49888217104627,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (30\" x 34 1\/4\")","offer_id":49888217137395,"sku":null,"price":1695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (16 3\/4\" x 19 1\/8\")","offer_id":49888217170163,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (20 1\/2\" x 23 3\/8\")","offer_id":49888217202931,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (25 1\/8\" x 28 3\/4\")","offer_id":49888217235699,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (32 3\/8\" x 36 7\/8\")","offer_id":49888217268467,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (38 7\/8\" x 44 1\/2\")","offer_id":49888217301235,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (45 7\/8\" x 52 1\/4\")","offer_id":49888217334003,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (55\" x 63\")","offer_id":49888217366771,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/TheWritingMaster.jpg?v=1790466354","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/the-writing-master","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
