DENNIS LYALL (B. 1946) "JOHNS
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.
