The initials of this gentleman are WT. I knew that. <BR/><BR/>My usual 'lectures' include both Hoban and your man as they concern the city I live near. (My reference to the AOC should have given the clue.) <BR/><BR/>Obviously, I don't want to give more away. But this portrait can be found facing both directions online and is a copy from the 1930's.<BR/><BR/>if I can get a prize as big as the one he got, I'd be happy.The Tour Marmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701469966951623627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20993778.post-61788221667401689352007-04-11T23:31:00.000-04:002007-04-11T23:31:00.000-04:00He reminds me of King George of Germany? durring M...He reminds me of King George of Germany? durring Mozarts time.

Tour Marm, you are thinking about James Hoban perhaps when I wrote about the missing Wyeth print. This painting is not James Hoban.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for all of the comments and guesses.
