Description

Portrait of Chris Keldsen set in a decorative mat and large oval frame with curved glass front. The portrait is B/W but the mat is colored; background is mottled blue with a bald eagle at the top, the American flag on the right, and the Statue of Liberty at the lower left. The printed portrait frame reads "Victors" at the bottom, making it likely that this portrait was created around the time of Keldsen's discharge in 1919. He is in a military uniform for the portrait. The frame is wood with a painted brown bristle/sunburst(?) pattern and golden inner circle. Cardboard backing has "Chris Keldsen, World War I" written on it.
