Julianna Married Philip NIcklin on April 1793. "Featured in Koehler's "American Art Review" and in the Boston exhibition of 1881 was the portrait of Mrs. Philip Nicklin dated 1879, after a painting by Gilbert Stuart. It illustrated an article on historical portraiture by Charles Henry Hart, who commented that the etching was a 'beautiful portrait ... etched from the original. The lady represented was one of Philadelphia's beauties ... Julianna died on the eleventh of August 1845."[1]
