Description / Descriptions :
This young man (?-1813)is said to be the son of Col. William and Catherine Claus. Notes that accompany the locket state that he died December 10, 1813 from wounds suffered during the War of 1812. He is shown here in military dress and black cravat. He is encased in an unusual double-sided locket with a miniature said to be Warren Claus, his brother. /
Ce jeune homme serait le fils du colonel William Claus et de son épouse Catherine. D’après les notes qui accompagnent le médaillon, il est décédé le 10 décembre 1813 des suites de blessures subies pendant la guerre de 1812. Il porte l’uniforme militaire et un cache-col noir. Le portrait est enchâssé dans un médaillon à deux faces, ce qui est rare, avec une autre miniature qui serait celle de son frère Warren.
