Description |
This portrait, a gift to the New-York Historical Society from Poe's literary executor, was painted from life in 1845, the year Poe wrote "The Raven." In 1844 his wanderings from job to job had taken him to New York, where he became editor of the "Broadway Journal," and where Osgood painted his portrait. Poe knew Osgood's wife, Frances Sargent Osgood, with whom he exchanged romantic poems. |
