"Picturing Emerson" reproduces and explores the background of all known images of
Ralph Waldo Emerson created from life, including drawings, paintings, silhouettes,
sculptures, and photographs. The book provides dates for these images; information
about their makers and Emerson?s sittings; as well as commentary by family members
and contemporaries. The resulting work makes it possible for the first time to trace
Emerson?s visage over seven decades. Dating and correctly identifying images of Emerson
has long challenged scholars, collectors, and the general public. By examining over
fifty years of archival and published research - including web resources, library
catalogs, and correspondence with international collections - the authors have been
able to locate nearly 140 images dating from 1829 to immediately before Emerson's
death in 1882
