"Francis William Edmonds" is an oil on canvas portrait by the prominent American painter Asher Brown Durand, completed in 1846. The painting depicts Francis William Edmonds (1806–1863), a notable American banker and genre painter, who was a contemporary and friend of Durand. This work is significant as it captures the likeness of Edmonds during a period when he was actively contributing to the development of American art, both through his own paintings and his involvement with art institutions.

Asher Brown Durand (1796–1886) was a central figure in the Hudson River School, a mid-19th century American art movement characterized by its realistic and often idealized portrayals of the American landscape. Durand's adeptness at portraiture was well-regarded, and his representation of Edmonds is a testament to his skill in capturing both the physical likeness and the character of his subjects.

The portrait is executed with Durand's characteristic attention to detail and subtle use of light and shadow, which imbues the work with a sense of depth and realism. Edmonds is portrayed in a thoughtful pose, suggesting his intellectual and artistic pursuits. The painting not only serves as a historical record of an influential figure in American art but also reflects the cultural and artistic milieu of the time.

"Francis William Edmonds" by Asher Brown Durand is an important work within the canon of American portraiture, offering insight into the personal connections and mutual respect among artists of the Hudson River School. The painting is a valuable piece for both its artistic merit and its contribution to the documentation of American art history.
