The Real Face of Thomas Jefferson Postcard Based upon his Life Mask Presidents

Description: The Real Face of Thomas Jefferson 4x6 Postcard Based Upon His Life Mask See the real face of Thomas Jefferson. A Photoshop reconstruction of John Henri Isaac Browere's 1825 life mask of Thomas Jefferson postcard. Actual card contains NO watermark. Thomas Jefferson endorsed his life mask bust, as did James and Dolley Madison when they saw it several days later. James Madison said of his own life mask, "Per request of Mr. Browere, busts of myself and of my wife, regarded as exact likenesses, have been executed by him in plaister, being casts made from the moulds formed on our persons, of which this certificate is given under my hand at Montpelier, 19, October, 1825." About Digital Yarbs: I'm Cheryl A. Daniel (Digital Yarbs) a Photoshop composition artist who enjoys history. I reconstruct life masks, statues and busts of famous early Americans and historic figures. Using life masks, I completed a forensic/academic study of how the subjects most likely appeared using Adobe Photoshop to add flesh, hair, and other details. My site, yarbs.net features reconstructions and animations of these life masks along with a little history and how the subjects might have looked in daguerreotypes and photographs. About Life Masks: To understand what these historic figures really looked like we cannot rely on paintings as they suffer from “artistic license” and “sympathetic treatment” commonly employed by many contemporary portrait artists. Before photography, the art form of the life mask was the best way to create an exact likeness of an individual. Basically, plaster would be applied to the head and sometimes upper torso to create a mold from which a life mask or bust of the person could be cast. This would result in a three-dimensional, faithful transfer capturing in minute detail the true likeness of the subject. Sculptors John Henri Isaac Browere and Jean-Antioine Houdon cast life masks of George, Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and many other historical figures. Thomas Jefferson endorsed his life mask bust, as did James and Dolley Madison when they saw it several days later. James Madison said of his own life mask, "Per request of Mr. Browere, busts of myself and of my wife, regarded as exact likenesses, have been executed by him in plaister, being casts made from the moulds formed on our persons, of which this certificate is given under my hand at Montpelier, 19, October, 1825." Browere’s casting process utilized a proprietary plaster mixture that due to its lightweight nature did not distort the facial features of his subject’s face as the common plaster utilized by his contemporaries did. This by all accounts resulted in what was considered an extremely accurate likenesses. J. I. Browere’s “work achieved a stark realism uncommon in that day. His plaster busts showed the age-lined brow, the pock-marked face; his subjects appeared as they were, not as artists generally portrayed them. His life masks were, and remain, the most authentic likenesses of some historic figures who lived in a day before photography provided more easily obtained but similarly uncompromising portraits."
