Francis Bicknell Carpenter ( Early life Carpenter was born in the town of Homer, New York to Asaph and Almira Carpenter. Asaph Carpenter was a farmer. The family farm was located between the village of Homer and the hamlet of Little York, on what is now Education One years later after showing his father a painting of his mother that the former viewed as a success—Carpenter was allowed to go to Early career In 1852, Carpenter was commissioned to paint a portrait of President Reading of the Emancipation Proclamation of President Lincoln" According to his memoir, "Six Months at the White House", Carpenter was deeply moved by Carpenter began with many sketches of Cabinet members and of Lincoln himself, working from life, as Lincoln worked, and from photographs taken by Exhibition of "First Reading" and reception When Lincoln had the painting exhibited to the public in the East Room of the White House, Carpenter noted that the exhibition was thronged with visitors. An engraving of the painting was made by Purchase and donation to Congress Carpenter campaigned for Congress to purchase the painting, enlisting the help of fellow Homer native William O. Stoddard, Lincoln's private secretary. Congress did not appropriate the money. The painting remained in Carpenter’s possession until 1877, when he arranged for Elizabeth Thompson to purchase it for $25,000 and donate it to Congress. A joint session of Congress was held in 1878, on Lincoln’s birthday, to serve as a reception for the painting. The artist was present at this event. Later career and death Ca the latter’s assassination, Carpenter produced many portraits of Lincoln and his family; some based on memory, others on photographs provided by Lincoln’s widow. Carpenter’s skills were in decline by this time. One admirer of Carpenter’s early work wondered if a later portrait of Lincoln was a forgery. By the late 1870s, Carpenter became increasingly interested in religion and spirituality; art historian Mary Bartlett Cowdrey believed “that religious obsession somehow undermined Carpenter’s work”. Carpenter died in New York City—a brief obituary appearing in the "New York Times" misstated the title of his most famous work. His body was returned to Homer, and he was buried in Greenwood Cemetery in that village. Criticism and later exhibitions of Carpenter’s work Carpenter’s legacy has been decidedly mixed, according to a retrospective of Carpenter’s career written for the "American Art Journal". Cowdrey attempted a full-scale biography that might have helped his reputation, but became frustrated by lack of interest on the part of Carpenter’s family. Contemporary critic Henry T. Tuckerman acknowledged Carpenter’s “facility in capturing a likeness” but “criticized the artist’s lack of ‘grace’ and ‘vitality’”. The United States Senate "Catalogue of Fine Art" observes that "First Reading", as it hangs today in the Capitol, contains a much weaker portrait of Lincoln than the engraving made from it. This was due to Carpenter’s obsessive tinkering with the original painting while he had it in his possession. In 2006, an exhibition of portraits by Carpenter was shown at the Center for the Arts [http://www.center4art.org/] in Homer, New York. Portraits by Carpenter of several figures of local historical interest were exhibited. Loans of the works were obtained from community members, the Phillips Free Library [http://library.public-libraries.org/NewYork/Homer/PhillipsFreeLibrary.html] in Homer, and the Homer Central School District [http://www.homercentral.org/] .

Life
He graduated from the
New York State politics
Raymond was a member of the
Raymond had a prominent part in the formation of the Republican Party and drafted the Address to the People adopted by the Republican organizing convention which met in Pittsburgh on February 22 1856. In 1862, he was again Speaker of the New York Assembly.
National politics
During the Civil War, Raymond supported Lincoln's policies in general, but protested his delays in aggressively prosecuting the war.Fact|date=February 2007 He was among the first to urge the adoption of a broad and liberal post-war attitude toward the people of the South and opposed the Radical Republicans who wanted harsher measures against the South. In 1865, he was a delegate to the National Republican Convention, and was made Chairman of the
On December 22 1865, he attacked
He retired from public life in 1867 and devoted his time to newspaper work until his death in New York City in 1869.
Journalistic career
Raymond began his journalistic career on Greeley's "Tribune" and gained further experience in editing James Watson Webb's "Courier and Enquirer." Then, with the help of friends, Raymond raised one hundred thousand dollars capital (a hundred times what Greeley staked on the "Tribune" ten years earlier) and founded the "New York Times" on September 18 1851.
Editorially, Raymond sought a niche between Greeley's open partisanship and Bennett's party-neutrality. In the first issue of the "Times" Raymond announced his purpose to write in temperate and measured language and to get into a passion as rarely as possible. "There are few things in this world which it is worth while to get angry about; and they are just the things anger will not improve." In controversy he meant to avoid abusive language. His editorials were generally cautious, impersonal, and finished in form.
Works
Raymond was an able public speaker; one of his best known speeches was a greeting to Hungarian leader
In addition to his work with the "New York Times", he wrote several books, including:
* "A Life of Daniel Webster" (1853)
* "Political Lessons of the Revolution" (1854)
* "A History of the Administration of President Lincoln" (1864)
* "The Life and Public Services of Abraham Lincoln" (1865)
