I'm looking for a portrait or likeness of Nathaniel Gow, and have had little 
luck with the net or in the books I own. I know that one was painted of him 
by John Syme of Edinburgh (who also painted a rather famous portrait of John 
James Audobon, when the latter was in Britain trying to raise funds for 
publication of his collection of North American bird paintings). It evidently 
ended up in the possession of his daughter Jessie (Gow) Luke after 
Nathaniel's death.  Does anyone know where this portrait is now, or if there 
are any other paintings of him?

Regards,
