Painting Description
"Roger Sherman" is an oil on canvas portrait by the American painter Ralph Earl, completed in 1775. The painting depicts Roger Sherman (1721–1793), a prominent early American lawyer and statesman. Sherman is notable for being the only person to have signed all four great state papers of the United States: the Continental Association, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution.
In the portrait, Earl captures Sherman in a half-length pose, dressed in the formal attire of the period. The painting is characterized by its attention to detail and the dignified representation of Sherman, reflecting his status and contributions to the nascent United States. The artwork is a fine example of Earl's portraiture style, which often included a strong emphasis on the subject's facial features and expressions, as well as a meticulous rendering of clothing and accessories.
Ralph Earl (1751–1801) was a prominent portraitist in the late 18th century, known for his realistic style and his ability to capture the likeness and personality of his sitters. His portraits are valuable historical records of the appearance and fashion of America's founding generation. The "Roger Sherman" portrait is held in high regard for its historical significance and as a work of art that provides insight into the character of one of the United States' founding fathers.
The painting is part of the collection of the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, Connecticut. It serves not only as an important piece of American art history but also as a visual connection to one of the key figures in the establishment of the United States government and its guiding documents.
