Coloring: Black and white engraving.

Comments: A portrait of the artist that puts a human face on a collection. Though probably somewhat idealized as compared to known photos of Roberts, this portrait is particularly interesting as it was drawn directly on the lithographic stone from life by C. Baugniet in 1844.
