MP.94.345Description
Framed black and white full length portrait of Walter Livingston and Richard Livingston (right to left). They are shown as young boys, wearing identical costumes. Walter sits on a carved marble low wall holding a white hat. The photograph is matted by a raised white mat which decends down to a golden border that frames the print. This recessed area is also framed by a thin gold line. The mat, backing, and front glass are being held together by black cloth tape which also acts to frame the piece. The backing is of cardboard and the print is hung by a metal cord fastened to metal rings.Made/Created
