Editor's note: Resource Library readers may also enjoy from the
Web:
- website by Don
Shelton: Mr. Shelton wrote to TFAO: "I collect miniature portraits,
especially American ones. The overall collection is titled "Artists
and Ancestors". There are over 300 American miniature portraits in
the American section of the collection and they are illustrated
and "published" on my website which has a home page at www.portrait-miniature.blogspot.com
together with comprehensive research notes. I believe it to be one
of the larger private collections of American miniatures in existence."
TFAO also suggests these DVD or VHS videos:
- Seth Eastman: Painting the Dakota showcases the unique body
of work of one of the most significant American artists to the nineteenth
century. This
hour-long documentary takes viewers back
vividly to the period and explore Eastman's complex relationship with his
subjects.
