The bust was later used as a model for sculptures and paintings. HistoryCeracchi created a terracotta model of Hamilton, from life, about 1791–92.[2] This was then sent to Rome, where he created the marble version. As written to Hamilton in July 1792, Ceracchi was "impatient to receive the clay that I had the satisfaction of forming from your witty and significant physiognomy".[3] He returned to deliver the bust to Hamilton in 1794, but did not receive payment until later. On March 3, 1796, Hamilton wrote in his cash book: "for this sum through delicacy paid upon cherachi’s draft for making my bust on his own importunity & as a favour to him $620"[4] The Hamilton family kept the bust until 1896 when it was bequeathed to the New York Public Library along with the portrait painting of George Washington, The Constable-Hamilton Portrait, by Gilbert Stuart.[5] Both were sold together, as requested by the will, on November 30, 2005 to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art for over $8 million.[2] A copy of the bust is now housed at Hamilton Grange, in New York City. The original is displayed at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas.{{Citation needed|date=June 2017}} DescriptionCeracchi portrayed Hamilton in the style of a Roman Senator, with wavy hair and bare-chested, wearing a ribbon of the Order of the Cincinnati over his right shoulder.[1][2] InscriptionThe original work is inscribed on the back in Latin:[5]
This translates to "Executed in Philadelphia and copied in Florence, Executed by Joseph Ceracchi, 1794."[2] LegacyThe painter John Trumbull used the bust as model for a series of 1804–08 portraits of Hamilton.[6][7] The first U.S. Postal Service stamp to honor Hamilton was an 1870 30-cent stamp using this bust as a model.[8] In 1880, the bust owned by Hamilton's son, John C. Hamilton, was used as a model for the head of the granite statue by Carl Conrads.[9] At the Hamilton Grange National Memorial, the National Park Service has installed a touch-sceen display that features an avatar modeled after Ceracchi's bust.[10] While Ceracchi, born on July 4, 1751, created busts for several founding fathers, his life did not end well. After returning to Europe, he first celebrated Napoleon with a bust, but then turned against him. After an unsuccessful plot, Napoleon had him guillotined at the Place de Grève on January 30, 1801.[9][11] GalleryReferences1. ^1 {{cite web|title=Alexander Hamilton, (sculpture)|url=http://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&menu=search&aspect=Keyword&term=76008649&index=.NW|work=Inventory of American Sculpture, Smithsonian Institution Research Information System|publisher=Smithsonian American Art Museum}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Treasury's Hamilton Bust|url=http://www.treasury.gov/about/history/collections/Pages/Treasury%27s-Hamilton-Bust.aspx|publisher=U.S. Department of the Treasury}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Dearinger|first1=David Bernard|title=Paintings and Sculpture in the Collection of the National Academy of Design: 1826–1925|date=2004|publisher=Hudson Hills Press|isbn=1-55595-029-9|pages=90–91|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PHH45aYubp4C&pg=PA90|chapter=Giuseppe Ceracchi}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Hamilton|first1=Alexander|title=From Alexander Hamilton to Robert Troup, 25 July 1795|url=https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Hamilton/01-18-02-0312#ARHN-01-18-02-0312-fn-0006|publisher=National Archives|page=note 6|nopp=y|date=July 25, 1795}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|title=Property from the New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations |url=http://www.sothebys.com/en/auctions/ecatalogue/2005/american-paintings-drawings-sculpture-including-property-from-the-new-york-public-library-astor-lenox-and-tilden-foundations-n08134/lot.3.html |publisher=Sotheby's |date=November 30, 2005 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160807090947/http://www.sothebys.com/en/auctions/ecatalogue/2005/american-paintings-drawings-sculpture-including-property-from-the-new-york-public-library-astor-lenox-and-tilden-foundations-n08134/lot.3.html |archivedate=August 7, 2016 }} 6. ^{{cite book|last1=Sizer|first1=Theodore|author-link=Theodore Sizer (art historian)|title=The Works of Colonel John Trumbull, Artist of the American Revolution|date=1967|edition=Revised|publisher=Yale University Press|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1XzqAAAAMAAJ|others=with the assistance of Caroline Rollins|pages=37–8|chapter=Alexander Hamilton: Ceracchi Type}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Alexander Hamilton, (Replica) (painting)|url=http://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&menu=search&aspect=Keyword&term=80180089&index=.NW|work=Inventory of American Sculpture, Smithsonian Institution Research Information System|publisher=Smithsonian American Art Museum}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=30-cent Hamilton|url=http://arago.si.edu/index.asp?con=1&cmd=1&tid=2029287|publisher= National Postal Museum}} 9. ^1 {{cite news|title=The Hamilton Statue.
