Description:Oval of a young man in a dark blue silk tie and vest and black formal coat. He has a thin moustache and straight brown hair that falls to just above his collar.
History:Inscription on the back of the painting: "Likeness of Franklin H. Morgan (1835-1856) son of Samuel D. Morgan Esq." It is possible this was a posthumous copy of a photograph, based on the pose and background treatment.
