Abstract:

William J. Weaver was an Anglo-American portrait artist in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Until now, little was known about him due to confusion over his correct full name. New documents uncovered by the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts in Winston-Salem, North Carolina resolve this matter, and shed light to Weaver’s contribution to Neoclassical portraiture.
