James Thomas Poindexter (American, 1832-1891). Oil on canvas. Housed in a gilt frame; 29.25 x 24.5 in. (sight).
Though unsigned, this portrait bears a striking resemblance to Poindexter portraits of the Noble children currently curated at the Filson Historical Society, in Louisville, Kentucky (See E. C. Pennington (2010) Lessons in Likeness: Portrait Painters in Kentucky and the Ohio River Valley, 1802-1920).
Provenance: Property from the Collection of Dr. M. Donald Hayes. To Be Sold Without Reserve.
Craquelure. Cleaned twice, before and in 1997. The cleaning in 1997 involved the removal of surface dirt and discolored old varnish. Previous in-painting removed and new coat of varnish applied. The in-painting executed in 1997is over the new protecting varnish layer and is reversible. Finish of gloss then matte varnish applied.
