  George 
  Romney's 
  picture 
  of 
  Joseph 
  Brant, 
  painted 
  in 
  England 
  in 
  1776, 
  for 
  

   the 
  Earl 
  of 
  Warwick. 
  In 
  that 
  year 
  other 
  pictures 
  were 
  made. 
  Ten 
  years 
  

   later 
  his 
  picture 
  was 
  painted 
  in 
  England 
  for 
  the 
  Duke 
  of 
  Northumberland, 
  

   and 
  in 
  1805 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  best 
  was 
  made 
  by 
  Mr 
  Ezra 
  Ames 
  of 
  Albany, 
  and 
  

   copied 
  by 
  Catlin 
  for 
  Stone's 
  Life 
  of 
  Brant. 
  It 
  is 
  the 
  frontispiece 
  of 
  the 
  

   second 
  volume. 
  There 
  is 
  a 
  fine 
  statue 
  of 
  the 
  Mohawk 
  chief 
  in 
  Brantford, 
  

   Canada. 
  Of 
  his 
  portraits 
  Romney's 
  is 
  the 
  finest 
  known.
