[washington, George] Silhouette Portrait By Folwell, C. 1800-1810. Right profile, waist-length silhouette of Washington in uniform, 3¾ x 6 in. image on 6 x 7¼ in. paper, in original 10¼ x 11½ in. wood frame. Attributed to miniature painter, engraver, and silhouettist Samuel Folwell of Philadelphia (1765-1813). Some gold highlights are faintly visible on parts of the jacket--buttons, epaulettes, etc. and on his hair, which is tied back in a queue. Original frame shows wear and brass mat is tarnished but the silhouette is very sharp. Dr. Joseph Field Collection; Claude Harkins Collection.
