Framed and matted under glass. 14" x 16", overall 21-1/2" x 23". Very good condition. The second piece is of a family silhouette portrait group of Mary Johnston McLean with her daughter Mary McLean and John McLean as a toddler seated on his mother's lap. There is a diagonal surface scratch lower right facing, most notable in the girl's dress, otherwise good.
