A portrait of Daniel Huntington, whose name most likely refers to the American painter (1816–1906), though the caption card gives no date and this record does not independently confirm the sitter. Huntington rose to prominence in New York's art world and served as president of the National Academy of Design for much of the later 19th century. Studio portraits of artists and public figures like him circulated widely in that era as cartes de visite and mounted prints, offering a window onto how painters presented themselves to the public.
