EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures a moment of quiet intimacy within the Washington family home. Dated around 1864, the image shows George Washington (1732-1799) and his wife Martha Dandridge Custis Washington (1731-1802) seated at a table, deep in conversation. Their grandchildren, George Washington Parke Custis (1781-1857) and Nelly Custis Lewis (1779-1852), stand to their right and left, their expressions reflecting a mix of curiosity and reverence towards their esteemed grandparents. The presence of a servant entering the room from the far right, perhaps to deliver a message or attend to their needs, adds a sense of the bustling household activity that would have surrounded the Washingtons in their later years. This poignant scene offers a glimpse into the private life of one of America's most iconic historical figures and his beloved family.
