Chief Justice John Marshall 1833

"Chief Justice John Marshall" is an engraving by Asher Brown Durand, one of the leading American landscape painters of the Hudson River School. The print, which depicts the fourth Chief Justice of the United States, John Marshall, is a striking example of portraiture and a testament to the skill of Durand, who used fine lines and stippling to render the sitter’s features and clothing with remarkable detail. The engraving is a rare example of Durand's early work in this genre. It is now part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
