AUTHENTIC LIKENESSES OF JEAN JACQUES FOUGERE AUDUBON 



1. 1824. Oil portrait by himself; painted at "Beech 



Grove," William Garrett Johnson's planta- 

 tion, West Feliciana, Louisiana; presented by 

 Audubon to Mrs. Johnson; inherited by her 

 daughter and granddaughter, and now in pos- 

 session of Dr. D. G. Murrell, Paducah, Ken- 

 tucky. Size of original, 12 by 9 inches. Re- 

 produced in The Auk, vol. iii, 1886 (see Bibliog- 

 raphy, No. 184). 



2. 1826 ( ?). Oil portrait by himself ( ?), 18 by 32 inches, 



West Feliciana; presented by Audubon to Col. 



Edward Durrive's father, later acquired by 



Mr. E. Curtis, and now in the possession of 



Mr. Thomas P. Thompson, New Orleans. 



My information concerning this doubtful portrait has been 



derived entirely from Mr. Ruthven Deane, to whom its present 



owner recently wrote: "My Audubon, by himself, attracts 



much interest, and grows more real as time makes it familiar." 



8. 1886. Pencil sketch by himself; signed 



"Audubon at Green Bank 

 Almost, Happy!! Sep r 1826." 



Made at the home of Mr. William Rathbone, 

 Sr., and presented to Mrs. Rathbone; now in 

 possession of Mr. Richard R. Rathbone, Glen- 

 y-Menai, Anglesey; for reproduction see The
