John Adams & James Monroe Founding Fathers c. 1790-1830's Engraved Portraits

The Honorable John Adams, Ambassador from the United States of America - James Monroe.

(Old Prints, 18th Century Prints, Engraved Portraits, Americana, Founding Fathers, James Monroe, John Adams).

Issued c. 1790's-1830's (?), Philadelphia & U.K. by anonymous & Duval.

Two early presidential portraits mounted on scrap book album paper long ago. Munroe is lithographed by Duval, Ambassador John Adams unsigned but almost certainly prior to his presidency in 1796, so 18th century.

Nice looking examples, pleasing age patina, the Adams print is affixed along the top edge (tiny piece missing at top right blank margin corner), any minor age flaws easy to overlook or forgive.

On the reverse is a c.1840 engraving of six presidents which includes these two men among them.

Sheet measures c. 11 3/4" H x 13 1/4" W.

Largest print measures c. "10 H x 7" W.
