John Mayo II

Charles B. J. Févret de Saint-Mémin

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a vintage portrait of a man in profile, facing left. The man has distinguished facial features, wavy hair styled back, and is wearing a high-collared shirt and dark coat. A portion of his necktie is visible, neatly tied at the neck. The background is a plain circle with texturing, set against aged-looking paper. Below the circle, there is handwritten script that reads "Col John Mayo."
