Look at the second photo and upper-left for the portrait:
from the May 1938 HH Hervey article :
Mambrino King lived almost to his twenty-eighth birthday, not dying until in December, 1899. His last public appearance was made in 1896. As previously remarked, Mr. Hamlin was already at that time growing feeble. The death of the horse that he idolized smote him a staggering blow. And afterward, he would totter out to the stable until he stood before the picture of Mambrino King and remain there, dumbly gazing, while the tears ran down his cheeks, until a nurse would lead him away.
