About Artwork: (ca. 1830) "John A. Sidell (1794–1850) was a friend of Vanderlyn and his agent in New York from 1830 to 1840. Little is known of Sidell's career except that he was a master in chancery and an attorney at law. Their friendship ended when Sidell worsened Vanderlyn's financial difficulties by failing to repay a loan. The portrait was probably painted shortly before it was first exhibited at the National Academy of Design in New York in 1830. It demonstrates a loosening of Vanderlyn's once crisp neoclassicism, as the artist adapted to the popular style of New York painters Samuel L. Waldo and William Jewett." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
