Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition but dustjacket is quite worn.. Gilbert Stuart, painter of George Washington and other founding fathers of the United States, at one time regarded in England as the probable successor of Sir Joshua Reynolds, once shuddered away from a self-portrait he had started to please his bride. Here is the portrait the artist himself could not face, made as he would have made it, frank, without flattery, profound, and soul-stirring. Includes an Index. ¶ 205 pages.
