c. 1800-1820, President George Washington Hand-Crafted Folk Art Style Bust Profile Silhouette, Original Oval Period Frame, Fine.
This scarce early American Federal Period Hand-Crafted Bust Profile Silhouette is shaped from heavy black cardstock placed on a white background, no maker, date, or place, housed in a period oval frame under glass, measuring overall 4.25” x 5.75” and includes the brass suspension loop at top. The underlying tan color backing card has a minor outer edge chip at 7:00 lower left not affecting the historic silhouette as shown. A creative design with the image carefully cut to expose details of George Washington’s clothing at his neck and breast, plus to show nice detail to his hair. |
