Martha Washington's home at Mount Vernon, the Potomac River estate on the Virginia side, is the setting here, with the first First Lady shown in her own domestic world rather than a public role. Martha Dandridge Custis brought considerable property into her 1759 marriage to George Washington, and she managed the large household, its enslaved workforce, and its guests for decades. Mount Vernon grew into a symbol of the Washington family's private life, which is why pictures like this one still draw interest from researchers and visitors alike.
