About the piece
This 1840 triple portrait by Otis Allen Bullard depicts the Dickinson children: Austin, Lavinia, and the future poet Emily Elizabeth. Rendered in a refined American style, the work shows the siblings in their youth; Emily is depicted holding a book of botanical drawings, a subtle nod to the intellectual environment of her upbringing.
