Excerpt from A Summer's Tour in Europe, in 1851: In a Series of Letters, Addressed to the Editors of the Charleston Courier We have also, in our list of passengers, the Hon. S. G. Goodrich, recently appointed Consul of the United States, to succeed Mr. Walsh at Paris. This latter gentleman has done much, during a long residence in France, both in a private and public capacity, to elevate and vindicate the American character and its institutions: and we doubt not that his suc cessor, carrying with him, as he does, a world-wide literary reputation, founded in some degree upon his writings under the well known name of Peter Parley, will be enabled to do like good service to our country. There is also among our passengers, the Hon. G. W. Wright one of the members of Congress from California, a gentleman of indomitable energy and perseverance, who is said to have traversed, within the last two years, more of the mineral re gions of that newly acquired territory, than perhaps any other American citizen. He has with him, it is understood, a most extensive cabinet of specimens of the rich minerals of that region, with which he expects to tempt the capitalists of Eng land to unite more extensively in furnishing the necessary means for advantageously developing them.

Featuring essays by Paul Manoguerra, curator of American Art at the Georgia Museum of Art, and Janice Simon, professor of art history at the Lamar Dodd School of Art, Classic Ground: Mid-Nineteenth-Century Painting and the Italian Encounter accompanies the exhibition of the same title. The exhibition brings together a group of paintings by American artists as a result of their mid-nineteenth-century Italian travels on the "Grand Tour." Thomas Cole, Martin Johnson Heade, Albert Bierstadt, Jasper Francis Cropsey, and other American painters created a body of work featuring Italian landscapes, people, buildings, and life. Classic Ground situates American paintings, with Italian subject matter, in the context of mid-nineteenth-century politics, gender, ideology, religion, and popular culture.
