Anna Symmes Harrison is shown here as a portrait subject, not as a White House figure, since she never lived in Washington as first lady. She stayed at the family home in North Bend, Ohio, while her husband, William Henry Harrison, took office in 1841 and died about a month later. This image was published as an illustration in Lila G. A. Woolfall's 1903 book *Presiding Ladies of the White House*, one of many early twentieth-century works that gathered portraits of the nation's first ladies. The catalog record notes that its data comes from an old caption card and has not been verified.
