About the piece

Painted by Rembrandt Peale in 1795, this classic portrait depicts the first American president with a sense of quiet gravitas. The work is characterized by its refined brushwork, particularly in the delicate textures of the white lace jabot and powdered hair, set against a rich, atmospheric background.
