New, Never Before Seen, Real-Face Images Of 6th U.S. President John Quincy Adams I Created From His Life Mask

ADVERTISEMENT

When we see daguerreotype photographs of John Quincy Adams, we see an old man with white hair and mutton chops (sideburns).

However, in 1825 during his presidency, his hair was brown and his face was clean-shaven. That same year, John Henri Isaac Browere cast a life mask of Adams at age 58.

Using Photoshop, we can now see the life mask of John Quincy Adams reconstructed showing us his true likeness when he was President and how he looked in period dress during the signing of the Treaty of Ghent.
