“Dear PoPville,
I have a mystery for the residents of D.C.
Currently, The now closed Latham Hotel and its adjoining restaurant, Michel Richard’s Citronelle, are liquidating all of their assets (they will be doing so for the next 3 weeks).
The location is in Georgetown and I think people will find the sale interesting. As they unload a hotel’s worth of items, some curious things are going up for sale. Amongst the silverware, artwork, furniture, and statuary there was this:
A 300 pound bronze-cast plaque.
It is being sold-off…One of the ladies suggested purchasing it for its scrap value…Still no one knows who the image depicts.
Aside from what is seen here, there are no maker’s marks at all on the front or the back. Can anyone identify this person?”
Ed. Note: Obviously, free PoPville t-shirt for the first one to get the identity right.
Latham Hotel at 3000 M Street, NW
