John S. Porter
John S. Porter is a Romanticism painter. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
John S. Porter painted small watercolors on ivory, precise and full of quiet detail. He made portraits of little-known sitters like Stephen Danforth Hassam, rendered in soft washes of color that feel warmer than their tiny surface. The Hassam portrait dates to about 1820 to 1825.
