Title: Presidents of the United States Author: ** Place: [Philadelphia] Publisher: Published by F. Bouclet Date: 1861 Description: Chromolithograph, lithographed in color by Feusier. 27x21¼. Large image of Columbia holding a staff and a shield, standing before the U.S. Capitol dome. An eagle stands next to her, holding a ribbon which reads "E Pluribus Unum." Woven into an ornate frame around her, are oval portraits of the first 16 Presidents of the United States, starting with George Washington, and ending with a beardless Abraham Lincoln at the bottom. The 16 Presidents are listed at the bottom, along with the dates of their term. A lovely and patriotic composition, probably issued close to Lincoln's inauguration. Augustus Feusier is listed in the 1861 Philadelphia directory as an artist, the later, a lithorapher. This print is illustrated in color (p.187) in Jay Last's The Color Explositon: Nineteenth Century American Lithography. Lot Amendments Condition: Bit of edge wear, very small chip from bottom right corner, dampstain at right edge (extending inward ~1") and at the bottom left corner; otherwise very good. Item number: 204031
