He traveled around the world in 1904 and then lived in Paris until 1914, when he began his teaching career at the Art Academy of Cincinnati (1914-1920). He was known for a series of paintings of the Cumberland Mountain people of eastern Kentucky. Sources: Ran Gallery, Cincinnati, Ohio.

DENNIS LYALL (B. 1946) "JOHNS HOPKINS" ORIGINALDennis Lyall (American, B. 1946) "Johns Hopkins" Signed lower left. Original Oil painting on Canvasboard.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting is the original painting which was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. $1 Johns Hopkins stamp issued June 7, 1989.
Even though he had little education, Johns Hopkins managed to become a successful entrepreneur. Hopkins, known to his friends as Johnsie, began his lucrative career working for his uncle as a humble grocery merchant. During the recession of 1819, he recognized the advantages of taking whiskey as payment for groceries from people who otherwise could not afford to eat. Both sides benefited from this arrangement -- his grateful patrons turned whiskey into food and he turned whiskey into profit, reselling it under the brand name, "Hopkins' Best."Hopkins uncle disapproved of this business practice. The two men parted ways and Hopkins' business success continued. He feathered his nest with wise investments, and became the largest private stockholder in the fledgling Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. Upon his death in 1873, Hopkins was able to provide generously for his relatives and still bequeath a sizable sum to create The Johns Hopkins University and The Johns Hopkins Hospital. The University, a foundation for research and advanced studies, opened formally in 1876. The medical facility began to operate in 1883, and the Hospital and School of Nursing opened its doors in 1889. The School of Medicine, from the beginning closely linked with the Hospital, opened in 1893. All this thanks to Johns Hopkins, who, though lacking in education himself, left his riches to be used in founding a prestigious institution for higher education.

- RARE DOUBLE PORTRAIT OF ALFRED
RARE DOUBLE PORTRAIT OF ALFRED AND JAMES J. COLLINS BY MILTON W. HOPKINS (CONNECTICUT/NEW YORK/OHIO 1789-1844). Oil on canvas signed on the back. The two sons of the Collins family identified on the back with their ages of six and four in 1842. The boys hold a small whip and the pet dog. Conservation report available. 25 1/4''h. 30''w. in its original gilt frame 29 1/2''h. 35 1/2''w. Ex Sumpter Priddy III (Virginia). Milton W. Hopkins and the Collins Family The Connecticut-born artist Milton W. Hopkins (1789-1844) spent most of his life in Connecticut and New York. He began his career as a portraitist in earnest when he advertised himself as a portrait painter and instructor in Albion New York in 1833. In 1836 Hopkins packed up his wife and ten children and headed west to Ohio settling in Clermont County. Though he never sold the Clermont County farm (he would die there in 1844) he would later set up a studio in Columbus (1840-1843) and then in Cincinnati (1843-1844). Based on identified portraits Hopkins clearly traveled throughout the region for commissions. Hopkins was a fervent anti-Mason and temperance advocate and according to research by Jacquelyn Oak it may have been his growing abolitionist sentiment that drove him to Ohio. She further postulates that it is through his anti-slavery efforts that Hopkins met fellow abolitionist and lawyer James Collins Jr. while in Clermont County. Collins (b. 1802 or 1803) a lawyer married Angelina (apparently sometimes called Margaret) in 1830 and had four children. Documenting their location(s) is somewhat challenging but Oak's research places them in Clermont County during Hopkins's residency and later in Illinois (always as an active member of the abolition movement). As an attorney Collins may well have spent time in Columbus (perhaps visiting Hopkins in his studio which was very near the Ohio Statehouse). The 1850 Federal Census locates the Collins family in New Albany Indiana along the Ohio River (and in their household was an African-American girl named Anne Robertson). Hopkins painted portraits Mr. and Mrs. Collins and of their sons Alfred and James in 1842. The portrait of the younger child was painted by another artist after Hopkins's death. All of the present portraits remained together and were ''discovered'' in a Missouri attic years ago. These portraits are among the few identified examples from Hopkins's Midwestern period a fact made more important because of the shared abolitionist efforts of both artist and sitter. Additionally the double portrait of James and Alfred is the only known double portrait by Hopkins. In short this family group of portraits should be considered among the most significant Midwestern portraits of the 1840s period. References: Face to Face: M.W.
