This miniature, watercolor-on-ivory portrait of Benjamin Franklin is a copy after Duplessis’ 1778 "fur collar" portrait of the diplomat. Contained within a small oval, Franklin faces the viewer’s right. He is presented as a bust-length portrait and wears a ruffled white shirt, a red waistcoat, and a red coat with a (fox?) fur collar and brass buttons. Franklin was in his seventies when he sat for Duplessis, and his advanced age is evident in this miniature: his gray hair recedes, his brow is wrinkled, his eyes appear tired and baggy, and he sports a prominent double chin. While the maker of this object is presently unidentified, the deftly rendered likeness (see especially Franklin’s mouth and eyes) and meticulous attention to detail may indicate that this object originated in Duplessis’s studio after 1780. The miniature is housed on an elaborate stand. The substructure of the stand appears to be wood; the stand itself is covered in leather with gold-leaf tooled decoration. The front surface of the stand (on which the miniature is mounted) is covered in crimson silk. On the reverse of the stand a wax seal with a wreath, stars, and monogram has been attached. Attached to the underside of the stand is a printed label, "Vu & certifié véritable par / nous Membres du Jury des Arts" with the inscribed signatures "Mellot J. Minot. C. Guillemes."

Franklin is presented as a bust-length portrait with his body turned slightly right. He wears a ruffled white shirt, a red waistcoat, and a red coat with a fur collar and brass buttons. After portrait by Joseph Siffred Duplessis or copy of original. Unsigned and undated.
