About the piece
Created in 1783 by the celebrated artist John Trumbull, this dual portrait depicts Governor Jonathan Trumbull, Sr. and his wife, Faith Robinson. The work is a masterclass in the American Neoclassical style, featuring the artist's characteristic focus on light and facial character. The somber palette and steady gazes reflect the gravity and resilience of the figures during a transformative period in American history.
