Conservation Efforts: Early American Maps and Portraits

This map hand drawn by a young woman is unusual and interesting for its early date. Emily will also present her research for the conservation treatment of a primitive Portrait of a Young Boy which was possibly painted by 18th-century American Portrait Artist, William Williams.
