Zustand: Fine condition. A portrait of George Farnham Balcom (1823-1879), the New York Baptist evangelist whose itinerant ministry eventually took him west to Kansas and Nevada. Balcom grew up in Oxford, New York, entered the Baptist ministry at about thirty, and became known particularly for evangelistic work in both speaking and singing. He conducted meetings and helped organize churches in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and the western states. Balcom moved west in 1870, settling near Cawker City, Kansas. Local accounts credit him with preaching among the earliest sermons in Osborne County and describe his continued work establishing churches on the frontier. His western career also included a brief period in federal service as special Indian agent at Nevada's Pyramid Lake Reservation in late 1871, making him the first Baptist preacher in the state.[1] The revenue stamp dates the portrait closely to the Civil War-era federal tax on photographs, while Balcom's handwritten identification as an "Evangelist" places the image squarely within the itinerant phase of his career. An well-documented portrait of a nineteenth-century Baptist revivalist whose ministry extended from rural New York to the developing communities of the American West. . Carte-de-visite photograph, 3 ½ x 2 ¼ inches on larger mount, with Gutekunst?s 704 & 706 Arch Street imprint and two-cent U.S. revenue stamp for playing cards on verso.

An attractive image of the good grey poet, inscribed in an unknown contemporary hand a line from Song of Myself (42): "And what is reason? and what is love? and what is life?"

Gutekunst purchased the rights to the Phototype (photogravure) process in 1878, hence our date attribution.…

No Binding. Zustand: Near Fine. Albumen print (13 x 7 ½ in.). Gutenkunst mount (worn with abrasion at foot). A very good print, signed by the photographer in the negative. This impressive full-length portrait of Grant in uniform was made at war's end to capture the triumphal hero at the height of his powers.

This portrait shows Grant emulating the pose of Napoleon in David's famous Napoleon in his Study (1812), a pose favored in military portraits of the time. Gutekunst was known as the "dean of American photographers," and only Gardner and Brady could equal the quality of his Civil War portraits. Leading politicians and generals flocked to his Philadelphia studio.…

Card a bit discolored on verso of photograph, with some pencil annotations, but with the image in good condition. Card a bit discolored on verso of photograph, with some pencil annotations, but with the image in good condition Ed Folsom writes of Gutekunst and Whitman's relationship with him: "Frederick Gutekunst [1831-1917], born and raised in Germantown, Pennsylvania. He was a well-known Philadelphia photographer and innovator in photoduplication techniques, mastering many of the early processes of photoengraving; his gallery had presses that allowed for large volume reproductions of photographs. His "Imperial Galleries" on Arch Street opened in 1856 and remained under his control until his death. Like Sarony in New York, Gutekunst focused his business on celebrities and compiled the world's largest collection of celebrity cabinet card portraits. His 1865 photo of Ulysses S. Grant is generally considered the best Grant image. Whitman often took advantage of Gutekunst's abilities to duplicate and print photos cheaply; he ordered thousands of copies from him and had photos of his parents duplicated by his gallery. Whitman rated Gutekunst "on top of the heap" of photographers and sent him complimentary copies of his publications as early as September 1876. When he received some photos from Gutekunst in 1888, Whitman said, "They are first-rate: they satisfy my sense of photographic righteousness. . . ." Still, Whitman had some reservations about Gutekunst's overall portraiture skills, and criticized some of his results." This appears to the same image of Whitman taken during a sitting at Gutekunst's Arch Street studio on September 22, 1880. …
