description

Summary

Full-length silhouette portrait shows James Madison, the first bishop of Virginia facing right outdoors next to a tree.

Purchase; 1915; (DLC/PP-1915:44874).

Cutting portraits, generally in profile, from black card became popular in the mid-18th century, though the term silhouette was seldom used until the early decades of the 19th century, and the tradition has continued under this name into the 21st century.

Nothing Found.
