Nascido em Perth Amboy, United States of America
Born: February 19, 1766, in Perth Amboy, New Jersey.
Dunlap was the son of an army officer wounded at the Battle of Quebec in 1759.
He demonstrated artistic talent early on, producing a portrait of George Washington in 1783 while staying at Rockingham in Rocky Hill.
He later pursued formal art training under Benjamin West in London and briefly with Abraham Delanoy in New York.
Upon returning to America in 1787, Dunlap dedicated himself almost entirely to the theater for eighteen years.
He became a pivotal figure in the burgeoning American theatrical scene, managing two of New York City’s most prominent theaters: the John Street Theatre (1796–98) and the Park Theatre (1798–1805).
Dunlap was not only a manager but also a prolific playwright, producing over sixty plays, many adaptations or translations from French and German works.
Notable Plays: The Father (1789), André (1798), The Virgin of the Sun (1800).
Economic necessity prompted Dunlap to resume painting in 1805, eventually becoming a full-time painter by 1817.
His artistic style encompassed portraiture and landscape painting, often reflecting the elegance of Rococo and Neoclassical influences.
He focused on capturing the likenesses of prominent individuals and scenes of American life during the Federal period.
