Reminiscences of a portrait painter

Healy, G. P. A. (George Peter Alexander), 1813-1894 · 1894 · Chicago : A.C. McClurg and Company · 21 pictures

Memoirs of the American portrait painter George P. A. Healy, published in Chicago by A. C. McClurg in 1894 for general readers interested in artists and the statesmen he painted. The plates are halftone reproductions of his oil portraits—seated and half-length figures in dark coats against soft brown grounds—useful for period likenesses, vignetted dark-on-light framing, and soft-focus tonal backdrops.
