CW 19th Century Union Soldier Charcoal Portrait - This evocative charcoal portrait captures a 19th-century Union soldier wearing a forage cap adorned with crossed infantry hunting horn insignia, rendered entirely in classic black, white, and grayscale tones. Housed behind glass within an ornate molded plaster-over-wood frame, the piece exemplifies period heritage portraiture with a striking presence. The frame exhibits heavy loss and chipping to the molded plaster ornamentation along the base and edges, while the drawing itself shows age-toned paper and minor spotting beneath the glass. H 25.25”, W 22.5”, D 2”. Post-Auction.
