🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Mystery Man

[jhamner]

Does anyone recognize this gentleman? I bought the little miniature because I thought it may be John Wilkes Booth but after comparing it to photos of Booth, I'm afraid I messed up!
The miniature is had painted on thick paper-I assume it's a watercolor- and is encased in a gold frame., Dimensions are approximately 2 1/2" tall 1 3/4"wide and 1/4' thick. I know it's a long shot, but I would LOVE to know the identity of this man! Thanks!

This may have been asked and or answered already, but where did you get it? More specifically, where in the Country did you get it? A geographical location may help to narrow down the search.

It was bought from a collector here in Central Virginia, although I'm not sure where she got it. Probably still here in Va, though.

I believe it is a portrait of Oliver Hopkinson 1812-1905, by Pensylvania artist John Henry Brown 1818-1891.
