"General Andrew Jackson" is a notable portrait painted by the American artist Asher Brown Durand. Completed in 1835, this work captures the likeness of Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, who served from 1829 to 1837. Durand, primarily known for his contributions to the Hudson River School and his landscape paintings, demonstrates his versatility and skill in portraiture through this piece.

The portrait of General Andrew Jackson is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Painted during Jackson's presidency, the work reflects the era's political and cultural atmosphere. Jackson, a controversial and polarizing figure, was known for his populist approach and his role in the Indian Removal Act, which led to the infamous Trail of Tears. Durand's portrayal of Jackson is marked by a sense of dignity and authority, capturing the resolute character of the man who was often referred to as "Old Hickory" for his toughness.

Durand's technique in this portrait is meticulous, with careful attention to detail and texture. The composition is traditional, with Jackson depicted in a formal pose, wearing a dark suit and a white cravat, set against a neutral background that emphasizes his stern expression and commanding presence. The use of light and shadow in the painting highlights Jackson's facial features, adding depth and realism to the portrait.

This painting is an excellent example of early 19th-century American portraiture and provides insight into the period's artistic conventions and the public perception of one of the nation's most influential leaders. Today, "General Andrew Jackson" by Asher Brown Durand is housed in the New-York Historical Society, where it continues to be a subject of study and admiration for its historical and artistic significance.
