Description

Greetings!

 Please see the attached photo's to determine whether this piece of art has any value and whether I should proceed with an appraisal. I believe this may be a portrait of Washington Irving being sworn into office.



"Entered according in the Act of Congress in the year of 1860 by O.H. Bailey and in the Clerks Office of the District Court of the United States of the Southern District of New York."
