Notes | Lawrence Sully was known to be the lesser artist of the two Sully brothers. His portrait figures show stiff upper bodies, little modeling, and pale skin rendered in light colors. The Huguenots had fled religious and political persecution in France and settled in the United States, where their knowledge of science and industry and their skills as artisans and craftsmen were highly prized. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
