Frederick & Nelson account statement, December 1908
No full textThe founders of premiere Seattle department store Frederick & Nelson began selling used furniture during the rebuilding of Seattle after the Great Fire of 1889. The business expanded to include home delivery of goods, a tea room, and ready-to-wear men's and women's fashions. The owners built a reputation for elegance and customer service. Although the company went out of business in 1992, it is fondly remembered for such innovations as having the first elevator for customers in Seattle, and for the popular Frango brand of chocolate mint truffles.
The account statement seen here was sent from Frederick & Nelson to Mrs. G. G. Altnow, and shows her purchases and credits during the month of December 1908. Mrs. Altnow seems to have purchased mostly kitchen supplies and furnishings that month, paying 0.10 for an eggbeater.Caption information source: "Frederick & Nelson Department Store," by David Wilma, HistoryLink.org Essay 2939.1 receipt; 7.25 x 11 in

"'Painting of a Sorrow': Visual Culture and the Performance of Stasis in David Garrick's Hamlet"
No full textThis article spotlights the acclaimed Shakespearean actor David Garrick's notorious habit of striking dramatic "attitudes" or sustained poses on stage. While some critics derided them as unnatural caesuras in Shakespeare's verse, these moments of silent stasis generated thunderous applause from audiences as well as numerous tributes from artists, who found these frozen moments an ideal subject for their brush. This essay reads Garrick's fondness for tableaux-vivants as a response to the explosion of visual culture in eighteenth-century England. Garrick developed this style at a time when Shakespearean-themed paintings came into vogue and prints of actors, including Garrick himself, had become popular collectibles. The article then explores the surprising parallels between Garrick's acting and Japanese Kabuki, in which performers also adopt dramatic postures (mie) at moments of tension or revelation. Visual artists in Japan, like their English counterparts, sought to capture these extravagant attitudes, and woodblock prints of actors (known as yakusha-e) were extremely popular. Insofar as these frozen moments and prints externalize the actor's or character's psyche as spectacle, images of Garrick's Hamlet clash with the notion of an interior realm beyond representation-a within that passeth show. Ironically, however, the performance of stasis in Garrick's Hamlet and the ubiquity of prints may have underwritten nineteenth-century theories of the Prince's "paralysis" and Romantic conceptions of subjectivity in which the inside overwhelms or arrests the outside
