notes
Judge Thomas Ewing, born in West Virginia in 1789, began his career as a schoolteacher in Ohio. He went on to practice law and in 1830 was elected to the U.S. Senate. This portrait shows Ewing at around fifty-five years old, about the time he became secretary of the treasury for President Tyler.

notes
There are several men by the name of William Lippincott who may have sat for this portrait. The sitter probably posed for Daniel Dickinson in Philadelphia, and there is evidence to suggest that this portrait was commissioned on the occasion of his wedding.
