The "Portrait of George Washington" by Gilbert Stuart is one of the most iconic and enduring images of the first President of the United States. Painted in 1796, this portrait is part of a series known as the "Athenaeum" portraits, which Stuart began in the same year. The painting is celebrated for its detailed and lifelike representation of Washington, capturing both his physical likeness and the dignified, resolute character that defined his leadership.

Gilbert Stuart, an American painter renowned for his skill in portraiture, was commissioned to create this work by Martha Washington, George Washington's wife. The portrait was intended to serve as a lasting image of the President for future generations. Stuart's depiction of Washington is notable for its meticulous attention to detail, from the texture of his hair to the subtle expressions on his face. The artist's ability to convey the gravitas and calm authority of Washington has contributed significantly to the lasting legacy of this image.

The "Athenaeum" portrait, named after the Boston Athenaeum which acquired it, was never completed; Stuart retained the original version to use as a model for future commissions. Despite this, the unfinished work became one of the most reproduced images of Washington, influencing countless other representations, including the likeness of Washington on the U.S. one-dollar bill.

Stuart's portrait of Washington has been praised for its artistic merit and historical significance. It not only provides a visual record of one of America's founding fathers but also reflects the early American Republic's aspirations and ideals. The portrait remains a vital piece of American cultural heritage, housed in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be admired by millions of visitors each year.
