About the painting

Andrew Talcott is shown at the age of twenty-five, not long after he graduated second in his class from West Point. He was known for devising procedures and instruments for surveying. Talcott became a captain in the Army Corps of Engineers and developed many early railroad routes before leaving the Corps in 1836 to work as a civil engineer.
