Can you find a picture (any likeness will do) of historian Charles
Rollin whose bio appears at
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/13119b.htm?

I already tried AP Multimedia Archive, World Book, Amazon.com, and
Google images.

Find it and YOU ARE AUTHORITATIVELY THE MASTER.

thanks

I have found a full length sculpture circa 1789. Image is 724 x 480
pixels.
However, the artist would not have met the subject and may have been
working from drawings or paintings.
Does this meet your requirements?
