Summary[edit]

Description The image of author, essayist, poet, Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), "head-and-shoulders portrait, facing right".
  • Most likely a "drawing by Sam W. Rowse in the possession of Charles Eliot Norton, Esq.",
  • but—perhaps—a work "engraved and published by S.A. Schoff, 1878", from that drawing.[1]

(Schloff's "portrait of Ralph Waldo Emerson after a sketch by Samuel W. Rowse was considered one of his best."—Wikipedia:Stephen Alonzo Schoff)
