Would that be the same chair as seen in most other Brady portraits? Not the one with the frills, but the ones that most people are sitting on, I've usually colorized chairs as green when I can see they're cushioned, and not leather.For future reference, here is a color photograph of the actual chair shown in the above image.View attachment 9668
This is THE chair. I believe it's now in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington.Would that be the same chair as seen in most other Brady portraits?

Is it the same that can be seen in a lot of portraits that I've been doing green? I'm a bit confused, as I've seen different chairs in the photographs I've seen.This is THE chair. I believe it's now in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington.

This colorization is months old, and it's unfortunately a pretty bad one by todays standards, and I'll have to go back and re-do it when I get my tablet tomorrow or on monday to make it look appropriate, you can expect a lot of environmental portraits if the tablet-thing works out quite like I hope.Noticing how their foreheads are pale, and their faces have some sign of color (or sun tan). That's what I would expect from guys who spend time outdoors wearing hats.
If this portrait was taken during the summer months, I would say the facial color is very accurate (taking in account suntan, and wind burn - stuff like that). I like it!This colorization is months old, and it's unfortunately a pretty bad one by todays standards, and I'll have to go back and re-do it when I get my tablet tomorrow or on monday to make it look appropriate, you can expect a lot of environmental portraits if the tablet-thing works out quite like I hope.
It's still one of your best works....Tks Zuzah
This one was a real pain to finish, it took so long, and I'm sure you'll find mistakes, either way enjoy - feel free to criticize.
