American School 19th Century Portrait of George Washington, crafted around 1810, serves as a compelling homage to the nation’s founding father. Executed in the style reminiscent of Gilbert Stuart, this portrait captures Washington’s iconic visage with a blend of reverence and historical significance. The meticulous attention to detail in facial features and the subtle play of light and shadow reflect the artistic sensibilities of the 19th century.

  • "George Washington at Dorchester Heights" after Gilbert Stuart, Oil on Canvas
    Located in Colorado Springs, CO
    Presented is a framed oil-on-canvas painting entitled George Washington at Dorchester Heights by an unnamed artist. The painting dates to the mid-to-late 19th century and was modeled after the original 1806 painting by Gilbert Stuart. Gilbert Stuart (1755-1828) is best known for the hundreds of portraits he completed of American politicians and social figures during his lifetime. Stuart hoped to one day paint the first president of the United States, purportedly declaring to a friend: “I expect to make a fortune by Washington.” Stuart took on many government and private commissions during his life; his reputation and skill resulted in George Washington agreeing to sit for Stuart on three separate occasions. George Washington at Dorchester Heights was painted by Stuart in 1806. Washington stands beside his horse with a distant view of the city of Boston...
