NOAH NORTH (1809-1880)*
Est: $50,000 - $80,000
Family Group Portrait oil on canvas 441/2 x 48in NOTES Born in June of 1809 in Alexander, New York, Noah North was the third of eight children. He began painting in the early 1830s and was a relatively unknown portraitist whose career lasted about a decade. He is known to have painted in the areas of Alexander, Holley and Rochester, New York as well as in Cleveland and Cincinnati, Ohio, and into Kentucky. His work, executed in simple linear painting style associated with earlier New England limners, shows a remarkable similarity to that of Milton William Hopkins. Hopkins was most likely North's painting instructor. The two men lived in close proximity to each other in Genesee and Orleans counties and as Jacquelyn Oak has proposed, census records suggest North may have boarded in the Hopkins household during his training (see Oak, et al. Face to Face: M.W. Hopkins and Noah North (Lexington, MA, 1988), p.23). The first dated portrait by North is inscribed 1833 and is numbered 11, which suggests that 10 others preceded it. While no signed portraits are extant from the 1840s, North continued to advertise as a "Carriage, Sign, House and Ornamental painter" in that decade. He continued to create likenesses, and in September 1845 in the Livingston County Whig (Genesee, New York, September 9, 1845), he promoted his skill for Daguerreotype portraits. This family group represents one of the most fully developed works by North. It shows great confidence in composition and places the family within a highly decorated interior. While we do not know who the sitters are, the book open on the shelf is Common Sense, suggesting that this family was linked to the American Revolution. Their elaborate dress and the large scale picture suggest that this family held a prominent social position.

NOAH NORTH (1809-1880)*
Est: $5,000 - $8,000
Portrait of a Lady in Elaborate Lace Bonnet oil on board 241/2x21in. NOTES Noah North began painting in upstate New York in the early 1830s. His work, executed in the simple linear painting style associated with earlier New England limners, shows a remarkable similarity to that of Milton William Hopkins, who was most likely North's painting instructor. The two men lived not far from each other, in Genesee and Orleans Counties, and, as Jacquelyn Oak has suggested, census evidence indicates North may have boarded in the Hopkins household during his training (see Oak, et al. Face to Face: M.W. Hopkins and Noah North (Lexington, MA, 1988), p. 23). In style and attention to detail, the portrait illustrated here is similar to that of Gracie Beardsley Jefferson Jackman, also completed on panel circa 1835 (see Oak, p. 93). See also Groce and Wallace, Dictionary of Artists in America (New Haven, 1957), p.474.
