Lavishly illustrated in color with details of the Lansdowne portrait itself, with other portraits of Washington--contemporary and modern--and with portraits of Washingtonís colleagues, the book is a treasure in and of itself. Essays reflect on how this remarkable painting explains the nature of Washington and his importance in the national psyche, discuss how Washington came to sit for the Lansdowne painting and the workís ownership throuout the years, and consider Gilbert Stuartís portraits of George Washington, and their many copies. A chronology highlights Washingtonís life and times.
