After securing a reputation as one of the finest genre painters of the late 19th century, Eastman Johnson concentrated increasingly on portrait painting in his later years. It was a more lucrative subject matter in which he had considerable experience, and after 1880 his distinguished roster of sitters included industrialists, financiers, and politicians. Among them were two U.S. presidents, Grover Cleveland (1891) and Benjamin Harrison (1895), whom the federal government commissioned Johnson to paint. The bust-length portrait of Senator Justin Morrill is arguably superior to these larger presidential portraits, both in the White House collection. Broadly painted and securely modeled, Morrill’s head is depicted against a backdrop of mottled, modulated grays, a refreshing change from the preponderantly dark and murky backgrounds of so many late-Victorian portraits. The several grays in Morrill’s hair, as well as his softly painted muttonchops, play subtly against this lively background.
In Johnson, Morrill found a painter whose temperament was well suited to his own. A New Englander like the senator, Johnson evidenced empathy for the admirable legislator’s character in this sober portrait. Firmness of character is conveyed through firmness of structure in the closely observed features. Morrill’s gaze follows the turn of his head, looking away from the viewer and creating a thoughtful mood.
We (supernumeraries and chorus) were encouraged to grow muttonchops for Lucia di Lammermoor. It was decided to remove the mustaches, so here is a before losing the stash picture.

Here is the booth highlighting René and Pierre's maritime literary museum. Pierre, (left) in addition to possessing a fine set of muttonchops, has authored a beautiful book on oceanographic vessels as well as having sailed around the world in an incredibly tiny boat that was moored down in the harbor.
The squirrels at the University of Portland are fascinating to watch. Some jump around, others "stealth crawl" along the ground, and all of them act a bit neurotic. In addition to the regular, "red" squirrels, there are also some (like the one above) that are speckled. On a couple of occasions, I noticed this very distinguished squirrel with "muttonchops," and finally snapped a decent picture outside of Buckley Center Auditorium.
