About the piece
Painted by John Trumbull in 1777, this intimate group portrait captures Jonathan Trumbull, Jr. with his wife Eunice and daughter Faith. The composition highlights the artist's skill in rendering textiles, from the deep blue of the gentleman's coat to the delicate translucency of the woman's veil, set against a dramatic dark background with a rich red drape.
