The work is characterized by Huntington's refined technique and his use of light and color to create a sense of depth and realism. The composition is carefully balanced, with Martha Washington positioned centrally, drawing the viewer's attention to her poised and commanding presence. The surrounding figures, engaged in conversation and interaction, add to the dynamic and lively atmosphere of the reception.
