"Portrait of a Boy Holding a Book" is a notable work by the American folk artist John Brewster Jr., who is recognized for his contributions to early American portraiture. Brewster, born in 1766 in Hampton, Connecticut, was a prolific deaf artist whose works are celebrated for their distinctive style and emotional depth. This particular painting exemplifies Brewster's ability to capture the innocence and introspection of his young subjects.

The portrait depicts a young boy, dressed in period attire, holding a book, which suggests a sense of education and literacy. The boy's direct gaze and the serene expression on his face are characteristic of Brewster's portraits, which often convey a sense of calm and introspection. The background is typically plain, drawing the viewer's attention to the subject's face and the book he holds, emphasizing the importance of the individual and his intellectual pursuits.

Brewster's technique involves a meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of facial features and clothing. His use of light and shadow adds a three-dimensional quality to the portrait, enhancing the lifelike presence of the boy. The artist's deafness is often noted as influencing his unique perspective and sensitivity to visual details, which is evident in the careful composition and expressive quality of his works.

"Portrait of a Boy Holding a Book" is part of Brewster's larger body of work that includes numerous portraits of children and families from New England. His paintings are valuable historical records that provide insight into the fashion, culture, and social values of early American life. Brewster's work is held in high regard and can be found in various museums and private collections, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic and historical significance.
