Joseph Brant

Looked for this online - wanted it on my War of 1812 website and eventually tracked it down to good old Wikipedia commons! It's by William Berczy and it's from 1807. The subject Joseph Brant was a famous Mohawk Freemason and Loyalist or not depending on your take on the complicated man. Lovely image. We used to have a dog who looked just like that.
