Contact seller5-star sellerZwickau: b.d. Geb. Schumann, 1822. Platemark: 7¼ x 4?? inches. Sheet size: 9¾ x 7?? inches. Scattered foxing; old annotations in pencil to verso. Stipple octagon-shaped engraving signed "N. Cochen del. F. Bolt Sc. 1822" and showing Benjamin Franklin with his iconic glasses and coon skin hat; based on Charles Nicolas Cochin's 177…7 portrait. "This was probably the first likeness of Franklin taken after his arrival in France. It was certainly by far the most popular. The Canadian fur cap is worn in sturdy independence of fashionable usage, and the Doctor's mouth, and the glance through his spectacles, carry out the idea."
