Portrait of Nathaniel Appleton - A Glimpse into 18th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the esteemed Reverend Nathaniel Appleton, a prominent Congregational minister in the Massachusetts colony during the 18th century. Captured in exquisite detail, this portrait from 1740 offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and culture of colonial America. Nathaniel Appleton's commanding presence is enhanced by his distinguished attire, notably his iconic white wig with puffs at the sides. The engraving expertly captures every intricate detail of his clerical collar and jacket, reflecting both his status as a clergyman and the prevailing fashion trends of that era. With a direct gaze towards the camera, Mr. Appleton exudes confidence and authority. His expression reveals a man deeply committed to his religious calling and dedicated to serving his community in Massachusetts Bay Colony. This historical artifact comes from Elisabeth McClellan's renowned book "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" published by Tudor Publishing Company in New York back in 1937. It serves as an invaluable resource for those interested in exploring American history through its sartorial evolution. As we admire this remarkable portrait today, we are transported back to a time when religion played an integral role in shaping society. Through this image, we honor Reverend Nathaniel Appleton's contributions to Christianity while also celebrating our rich heritage as Americans.
