After Gilbert Stuart (American
After Gilbert Stuart (American 1755-1828) "George Washington" early-to-mid 19th c. after the Athenaeum portrait miniature watercolor on ivory signed "G.S." and dated "1799" lower left sight 4 1/8 in. x 3 1/8 in. in a brass frame. Note: This is a simplified copy of the great portrait that Stuart began painting from life in the spring of 1796 and left unfinished in its lower parts. In terms of the costume and style the miniature is closest to the "Edward Pennington portrait" of the same design of 1796-1803 now in the Senate Collection in the U.S. Capitol building. This inscription seems probably to be contemporaneous though the handling lacks the vitality and forcefulness which would qualify the miniature as an autograph work of Stuart's (he was far less likely to have painted one of the numerous replicas of this design in miniature format in any case). The coloring is restrained and sober in keeping with the General's reputation; the fine case suggests that it may have been framed contemporaneously.
