Remarkable Oil Portrait by Hartshorn in Cheyenne
Newton T. Hallshorn, a celebrated portrait artist, arrived in Cheyenne with his wife and two daughters to paint a full length life sized portrait of Phelpe Johnston, the two year old son of Dr. G. P. Johnston. The piece shows Phelpe with a gray squirrel on a cottonwood limb, set against a tailored landscape. The painter’s bold brushwork and exact color placement yield a striking likeness and graceful composition. Dr. Johnston praised Hartshorn for achieving remarkable results and likeness in daily life. The child wears a blue Russian blouse and knickerbockers with low shoes and white stockings typical of the period.
