John Tyler. President of the United States.
Painted by J.R. Lambdin. Engraved by J. Sartain.
Published by William Smith, No 702. So. 3.d St. Phil:a. Copyright Secured.
Mezzotint with facsimile signature. 620 x 430mm (24½ x 17"), with wide margins. Scuff in left border, nicks and spotting in edges.
A full length portrait of Tenth President John Tyler (1790-1862), painted while in office 1841-5. A Virginian slave-owner, he retired after his term of office, but re-entered politics in 1861, attempting to defuse the situation in the lead-up to the Civil War. However he felt his peace-efforts were being abused by the Federalists and eventually voted for the secession. In November 1861 he was elected to the Confederate House of Representatives but he died of a stroke before the first session. Originally a frame maker, William Smith ran a print shop in Philadelphia from c.1860 to c.1891, specialising in lithographic portraits and historical scenes. He moved to 702 South Third Street in 1863.
