Watercolor and Ink Family Record
Catalogue Of The Family Of Mr. Jacob Tyler
By William Batchelder
1791
This family register records both marriages of Jacob Tyler. It is somewhat unusual in that both of his wife's and the children produced by each marriage are recorded together. The work is neatly compartmentalized and colorful with ink and watercolor borders and drawings ornamenting the piece. The paper has folds and some separations within the creases; evenly toned with colors remaining quite bright. The work is archival mounted and was framed by Perry Hopf. (Frame: 14.75 x 25.25 inches; view: 12.25 x 22.75 inches.)
