Jonathan Harvey Hurst is a 1798 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This tiny print shows a man in a dark coat, facing left. His sharp collar catches the light. The paper is small—just over two inches square. Means it was made for private collectors, not big walls. The style fits early U.S. portraits where people wanted European polish. It feels close to Gilbert Stuart’s bold brushwork but in black and white. Check out the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
