Titled simply *Washington At Home*, this picture turns away from the battlefield and the presidency to show the domestic side of George Washington's life. The record does not say which house or year it depicts, so it is best read as a glimpse of the everyday family routines at Mount Vernon, the Virginia estate that was his home for most of his life. Scenes like this were popular in later prints, which often presented the first president as a devoted husband and steady gentleman farmer. Notice how the artist arranges the figures and furnishings to suggest comfort and order.
