Christopher Pearse Cranch was a Unitarian minister, poet, author, artist, and member of the Transcendental Club.
At this time Cranch drew a number of inspired and amusing caricatures of Emerson, based upon passages in Emerson's works, that became famous and today are highly prized.

Christopher Pearse Cranch (1813-1892) attended the Harvard Divinity School, was a Unitarian minister, a Transcendentalist, painter, and poet.
Cranch's letters home describe his work on the court, including his later appointment by Jefferson as Chief Justice of the same body; articles written for the Federalist under the name Lucius Junius Brutus, and work on his project of reporting Supreme Court cases for publication with many of his letters describing recent Supreme Court action.

 Christopher Cranch
Christopher Pearse Cranch may well had the greatest range of interests of the Transcendentalists, yet perhaps was not a shallow dilettante as sometimes labeled.
In return, Cranch found Emerson's poetry lacking in "one essential element, the sensuous." As Buell says, he, like Ellery Channing and Dwight, were "closer to the purely artistic temperament than Emerson," and were troubled by Emerson's concept of poet as prophet.
Cranch's close friendship with John Sullivan Dwight, a pioneering music critic, led to many visits to Brook Farm, where he was appreciated for his music and entertainment for the children.

 Transcendental Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The club was established in the Boston, Massachusetts home of George Ripley, on September 8, 1836, by Frederick Henry Hedge, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Orestes Brownson, Bronson Alcott, James Freeman Clarke, and Convers Francis.
Other regular male members included William Henry Channing (whose uncle Dr. William Ellery Channing also attended once), Theodore Parker, Christopher Pearse Cranch, John Sullivan Dwight, Cyrus Bartol, and Caleb Stetson; the group's female members included Sophia Ripley, Margaret Fuller, and Elizabeth Peabody.
The club was a meeting-place for these young thinkers and an organizing ground for their idealist frustration with the general state of American culture and society at the time, and in particular, the state of intellectualism at Harvard and in the Unitarian church.
