Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Portraits of My Married Friends: Or, a Peep Into Hymen´s Kingdom "Uncle Ben is a bachelor and how dares he attempt Portraits of his Married Friends?" may be asked by more than one of my fair originals. It is a presumption, I admit; but it appeared to me, when I could not engage in the interesting life of the married world, (for reasons better known to Providence than to myself,) that the next best thing I could do was to go around among those more fortunate, and see how much I might gain by studying their lives. It became a passion with me. I drew sketches of life and character until I had material for a large gallery of Portraits, with which I was amused and instructed. I often sat hours in deep contemplation over the weary struggles of one, or the heroic triumphs, or vain follies of another.
