Edward L. Pierce, Memoir and letters of Charles Sumner: volume 4, Note. (search)
by W. W. Story; made from sittings in 1851 at the request of the seventh Earl of Carlisle, with some final touches from Seth W. Cheney, as Story left for Europe before it was quite finished (ante, vol. III. p. 64; IV. p. 261). It has been kept at Castle Howard, Yorkshire; it is a good likeness, and represents Sumner at his best, in the fulness and strength of manhood. Prescott wrote to Sumner in January, 1852: You cannot expect a better likeness in every sense. It was lithographed by S. W. Chandler before it was sent to England. Epes Sargent wrote of the print, which was published in 1854, that it was a capital likeness, and that nothing could be better. The biographer has a copy of a photograph of the picture, taken at York since the senator's death. 4. Daguerreotype, by Southworth and Hawes, of Boston, in 1853; taken for, and owned by, the biographer, and engraved for this Memoir (vol. i.). 5. Daguerreotype, taken a few months later at Lowell; owned by Mrs. W. S. Robinso
