Tried to do in new york was to leverage shared Regional Service providers to try to ensure that districts were able to get the students the services they needed in a sustainable way.

Military medicine, one exhibit display focused on the advancements in surgical kits. We see a surgical kit from the time of the revolutionary war n and the war of 1812, compared 18 and contrasted with kits from rq afghanistan. One thing to notice in the surgical kit from the war of 1812 is that the knives may look to us today very much like kitchen knives or butcher knives, but these were the precise tools of that era. So its interesting to note that those knives are alongside the tools used to extract bullets from injuries and one can imagine the pain that might have been caused by even the tools themselves. Another object kit of note is the kit used to do a postmortem examination, an autopsy on the remains of the father of the United States navy, john paul jones, jones had died and was buried in france at the end of the 18th century, but in 1905 a surgeon named joseph corniel had jones remains exhumed and core kneel used this kit that we have on display to positively identify jones r
Are sitting on the desk. His wifes painting is a classic. Its Gilbert Stuart at his very best, i think. Lets walk along this wall. This was another stuart portrait painted while he was new york before he ever went to philadelphia to paint washington. This is henrietta. So many times these were done as a pair. Her husband was a newly appointed ambassador to the u. S. And they were newlyweds. This was painted right before they returned to england.

Its amazing that paint draws so slowly in this country. Many people noted that. Stuart sometimes came through very quickly, but other times he just didnt even finish a work. He was very mercurial. This is such a beautifully done portrait with the color harmonies that stuart used for her. The beautiful linings and the peach and the way her bonnet is lined and the bow and the bo
He made 12 or 13 copies and then he got tired of doing that. And we have a van portrait not on view. We have one downstairs, which is another replica of that. For a while the gallery thought our van portrait might have been the original that stuart painted, but it is probably a very early copy because stuart wrote that he had rubbed that one out. In the midst of making replicas of the van portrait, he got another commission from Martha Washington for the portrait, x became the one that was used on the dollar bill and is the one that is modelled after. This one was a replica of the ahea athenium. This is the portrait of washington by stuart for that commission. Theyre not all exactly the same depending on stuart felt when he was doing the replica. Stuart said that washington was difficult to paint because he was so taciturn. Washington was not one to suffer that glib kind of conversation that stuart liked to partake in, so it was difficult to get washington. They said washington, when h
