Answer 1

Wow !!!  I am going to guess this is a drawn representation of Benjamin.  It is still very "crisp" has it been treated to preserve it?  Very, very nice.  thank you for sharing this Pete.

It is one of three oil paintings. I will be posting his Mom and Dad soon. They are originals. My grandmother had them very professionally restored. I think the restoration was back in the 1980s.

I look forward to seeing "Mom and Dad".  And wow to your grandmother for having them restored.

Answer 2

Magnificent photo thank you for sharing

Answer 3

Amazing oil painting of the Judge. Hint of red hair, with brilliant blue eyes. You can tell that he was a fair man by looking at him, but also that you would not get away with anything in his court.

I love this picture and I thank you for sharing this with your WikiTree family.

Answer 4

This is such a wonderful photo.  Thank you for taking time to share it.
