Fabulous piece a framed history. A beautiful glimpse of of yesterdays . Silhouettes were a popular and affordable type of portraiture in Europe and America during the late 18th and 19th centuries.
The art form involves cutting profiles from dark paper and mounting them on a lighter background, often with a gold or tan wash background as seen here.
The subject is depicted wearing a hat, a suit jacket, a collared shirt, a tie, and appears to be smoking a cigar.
The portrait is presented in a dark wooden frame and displayed on a decorative, ornate brass easel.
