Christman, 404 Pearl Street, New York City, circa 1846. Cover illustration designed by lith…ographer Eliphalet M.

VERY GOOD CONDITION: former owner's contemporary penned name on front cover, one front edge tear to the middle leaf, and some light wear from age and use, otherwise bright, clean and unmarked. A later printing of this title is in Emily Dickinson's personal volume of collected sheet music at Harvard. In the 1840s minstrel shows were a major craze in the United States. A distinctly American form of popular culture imbued with controversial cultural dynamics. Minstrel performances worked to reinforce the racial ideology of white superiority. Blackface performers relied on crude, stereotypical depictions of Blacks to entertain white audiences. The performers' ragged costumes, blackened faces, and exaggerated dialectical diction created a negative image and the shows depictions of the plantation as a benign, happy place ignored the brutality of slavery. William Whitlock (1813-1878) early pioneer of American blackface minstrelsy, blackface performer best known for his role in forming the original minstrel troupe, the Virginia Minstrels. Eliphalet M. Brown, Jr. (1816-1886) American artist, daguerreotypist, lithographer, and photographer. Eliphalet M. Brown, Jr. (illustrator).

A pair of views drawn on the spot, " From nature" by Wilhel…m Heine, with figures after daguerrotypes by Eliphalet Brown, prepared for Commodore Perry's "Narrative of the Expedition of an American Squadron to the China Seas and Japan.". Heine and Brown, the artists, may be seen conferring in the middle ground of one view.The expedition visited the then independent kingdom of Lew Chew (Ryukyu) in 1854, where famously Perry signed a trade agreement on July 11th. In 1875 Japan posted a military garrison in Lew Chew, annexing the Islands in 1879. Perry's Narrative goes into considerable detail about these views: ?Picturesque crags studded the hillside?Over it towered a tall crag, rent through the centre and surmounted with a square rock, like a ruined tower [and] on a spot commanding a fine view of the bay, [we] found a handsome Cunq-qua, in an enclosure planted with trees. A dignitary of some kind welcomed us, and we were plied with small cups of excellent tea?.
