“This is an Original Portrait of Genl Washington taken in 1797,” wrote Martha Washington’s granddaughter Eliza Parke Custis in an inscription framed with this drawing. She added: It was painted by Mr. Sharples & is an exact likeness except the complexion Genl Washington was very fair with light brown almost auburn hair—he had not a black beard. He had artificial teeth but so well fixed, that they did not disfigure his mouth.
Completed as Washington prepared to leave office, likely a year earlier than mentioned in the inscription, this is one of the last portraits he sat for as president.
Nacido en Westmoreland County, Virginia
“Este es un retrato original del Gral. Washington realizado en 1797”, confirmó Eliza Parke Custis, nieta de Martha Washington, en una inscripción enmarcada con este dibujo, añadiendo que: Lo pintó el Sr. Sharples y tiene un parecido exacto, excepto el tono de piel. El Gral. Washington era muy blanco, de cabello castaño claro casi cobrizo; no tenía la barba negra. Tenía dientes postizos, pero tan bien colocados que no le desfiguraban la boca.
Realizado cuando Washington ya culminaba su mandato, quizás un año antes de lo indicado en la inscripción, este es uno de los últimos retratos para los que posó el presidente aún en funciones.
