Portrait of Cornelius S. Bushnell (early)
1850s
Oil Paint, Canvas
Large oil portrait of Cornelius S. Bushnell, on canvas in gold colored wooden frame. Cornelius is shown as a well groomed man in his late 30’s (?). Has receding hairline but bushy hair and close cropped beard. Looks slightly to his left. Painting has minor losses but is dark - possibly needs cleaning. Frame is ornate and in very good condition. Undated and unsigned but the canvas has a indecipherable printed stamp. Two nearly indecipherable diamond shaped stamps on frame appear as "T.A. Wilmur & Son". Canvas is 27” x 31”. Frame is 33 1/2” x 40 1/2” x 3 3/4”.
