Henry S. Foote Sketch

 

Henry S. Foote, the only questionable character who ever pulled a gun during a dispute on the Senate floor. I kind of like the way this one came out. This is part of my Triptych History project that will have all the pertinent details when it is completed. Just a teaser, for now.
