Английская Википедия:Allan Marquand
Allan Marquand (Шаблон:IPAc-en; December 10, 1853 – September 24, 1924) was an art historian at Princeton University and a curator of the Princeton University Art Museum.
Early life
Marquand was born on December 10, 1853, in New York City. He was a son of Elizabeth Love (née Allen) Marquand (1826–1895) and Henry Gurdon Marquand, a prominent philanthropist and art collector who served as the second president of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1] The Marquand Family gained prominence in the silver trade, having established Marquand and Co.[2] Marquand's uncle, Frederick Marquand, as well as cousin Virginia Marquand Monroe, founded Southport's Pequot Library Association.[3]
After graduating from Princeton in 1874, Allan obtained his Ph.D. in Philosophy at the Johns Hopkins University in 1880. His thesis, supervised by Charles Sanders Peirce, was on the logic of Philodemus.[1]
Career
After obtaining his Ph.D., he returned to Princeton in 1881 to teach Latin and logic.[1]
During the 1881–1882 academic year, Marquand built a mechanical logical machine that is still extant; he was inspired by related efforts of William S. Jevons in the UK. In 1887, following a suggestion of Peirce's, he outlined a machine to do logic using electric circuits. This necessitated his development of Marquand diagrams.[4]
McCosh, the President of Princeton, deemed Marquand's relatively mathematical approach to teaching logic "unorthodox and uncalvinistic",[5] an approach he had learned at Peirce's feet. Hence in 1883, Marquand was offered a position teaching art history, a position he held until his death and at which he excelled. He was elected chairman of the Department of Art and Archaeology in 1905. He also served as the first director of the Princeton University Art Museum, a position he held until his 1922 retirement.[6]
Personal life
On June 18, 1896, he married Eleanor Cross in the Church of the Holy Communion in South Orange, New Jersey.[7] Eleanor, a daughter of English born railroad official and banker Richard James Cross and Matilda (née Redmond) Cross, was a niece of Goold H. Redmond and Frances Redmond Livingston. Her brothers, John Walter and Eliot Buchanan Cross, were prominent architects. Together, Eleanor and Allan were the parents of four children:[1]
- Eleanor Marquand (1897–1988),[8] who married George Howard Forsyth Jr., a Guggenheim Fellow, in 1927.[9][10] They divorced and in 1948 she married widower Douglas Delanoy, a member of the research staff of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Beane.[11]
- Mary Marquand (1900–1974), who married industrialist Harold K. Hochschild,[12] the president of the American Metal Company in 1941.[13]
- Sarnia Marquand (1902–1984), who never married.[14]
- Allan Marquand Jr. (1912–1938), who married Gertrude Palmer before his death at age 26 in 1938.[15]
Marquand died at the Presbyterian Hospital in New York on September 24, 1924, and was buried at Princeton Cemetery.[1] His widow, an authority on the representation and symbolism of flowers and trees in art, died in February 1950.[16]
