    Exceptional Antique African American Gentleman's Portrait, circa 1880s-1920s
    Beautiful Hand-Coloring
    Oval Convex Glass and Frame
    Size: 22" Height x 16" Width
    There are small tears in the photograph, which is to be expected with its age (see photos). However, it is still a magnificent piece of history and not to be passed up!
    The original paper backing is long gone, but the original mounting backing is still intact and undisturbed.
    There are no hallmarks on the frame, but it is in fantastic condition.
    As best as we can tell, the writing on the photo mounting says:
    "H7287
    Dennis Lete
    20 ol"
    We wish this handsome gentleman could tell us his history. Where has he been? Where did he go in his life? This is a very special portrait and so important to preserving African American and Black History. Our hope is someone will appreciate and cherish his portrait as much as he deserves to be cherished.
