John Vanderlyn, who was born in 1776 at Kingston, New York, like QuintinMatsys began life as a blacksmith. His talents were noticed by Colonel Burr, whogave him a start in life at New York. In 1803, Vanderlyn went to Europe, and wasin Paris and Rome the friend and companion of Allston. In Rome he painted, in1807, his famous Marius sitting on the Ruins of Carthage, to which Napoleon person-ally awarded the prize medal in the Salon of 1808, and which the emperor tried tobuy; but Vanderlyn wished to take it to America, and it was subsequently purchasedby Bishop Kip, in whose possession it still remains at San Francisco.
