I have handled a good number of lacquered papier-mache snuffboxes and have seen thousands more—this is the first example I have had of a fully painted miniature of a black man's face. The face occupies the full round—it is quite effective. The lacquer is of very good quality and it probably English or Continental of the Saundauer type.
