<b>CW¥Prints</b><hr><b>1868 Print, 'GENL. GRANT & HIS FAMILY,' Engraving by William Sartain, published by Bradley & Co., Philadelphia, PA, Very Fine or better.</b>
18' x 24.5,' framed to an overall size of 28' x 34.' A large, uncolored steel engraving of a standing, uniformed General Grant, outside with his wife and four children. Engraved by Sartrain from a painting taken from life by William Cogswell of Washington, DC. First weÕve seen of this type, a bit less formal than the more common indoor scenes that weÕve offered before. Large, impressive and ready for display. The frame appears to be of the period, although the paper backing and hanging wire are new.
