About this work

This image shows a black-and-white drawing of nine men's faces. They are arranged in three rows of three, with each man facing forward. The men have short hair and beards, and they are all wearing suits and bow ties. The men's expressions are serious, and they seem to be looking directly at the viewer. The background of the image is a light gray color, which helps the men's faces stand out. The Seceding South Carolina Delegation is a portrait that showcases the style of Realism.
