AMERICAN SCHOOL c.1850 PORTRAIT BOY WITH WHIP

This charming American School portrait, circa 1850, depicts a well-dressed little boy standing at attention, holding a whip. On canvas laid down on board in an antique gilt frame, the dimensions are 17-3/4 x 14-3/4 inches, sight size, and 23 x 19-3/4 inches framed. The little boy's expression indicates that he would rather be somewhere else. His placement in the center of the canvas makes it appear as if he is almost on a stage or in the front hall of a large home, waiting for his next move.
