The Edgehill Portrait is one of the best-known images of Thomas Jefferson, and its name comes from Edgehill, the Albemarle County, Virginia house where it hung for generations. Jefferson's third-president years, 1801 to 1809, are the period the title names, a time when he led the young republic through the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis and Clark expedition. The record here is brief and credits an online user rather than a named artist, so the image's exact origin is unclear from the caption alone. What stands out is how the portrait has come to represent Jefferson the statesman, shaped as much by the house and family that preserved it as by his years in office.
