Label TextGeorge T. Maxwell balanced his mild caricature of Frank E. Schoonover’s physique with a convincing likeness, as the artist appeals to the Wilmington community to contribute to a 1935 building fund in support of a museum to house the Bancroft collection of Pre-Raphaelite art and the Howard Pyle illustration collection.
