Antique round painting featuring a spread wing eagle with ribbon in his beak and two American flags in its claws. Federal shield below the eagle. Script around the circular painting detailing the date and the 1876 Centennial. I purchased this painting as is about ten years ago. Has not been opened up. Very impressive. If you like patriotic symbols and Americana this is a very rare find.
