SAMUEL F.B. MORSE, CDV by Fredricks

Samuel MorseSamuel Morse

Beside his invention of the telegraph, Morse was a significant painter. He was the first to bring Daguerre’s method of making daguerreotypes to the US. He taught the process to several of the major American practitioners.

This is a rich portrait, less common than those that show him with his medals. Prof. Morse is written in pencil on the bottom margin.
