"General Jonathan Williams (1750-1815) Engraved by Richard W. Dodson (1812-1867)" is a notable work of art by the distinguished American portrait painter Thomas Sully (1783–1872). The piece is an engraving based on a portrait that captures the likeness of Jonathan Williams, a prominent figure in American history, known for his role as a military engineer and the first superintendent of West Point. The original painting by Sully, which would have served as the basis for Dodson's engraving, reflects the artist's adept skill in portraiture, characterized by his ability to convey the dignity and character of his subjects.

Thomas Sully, born in England and having moved to the United States as a child, became one of the most sought-after portraitists of his time, painting numerous influential figures of the early 19th century. His portraits are celebrated for their elegance and expressive quality. The engraving by Richard W. Dodson, an American engraver active in the mid-19th century, is a testament to the collaborative nature of art production in this period, where painters and engravers often worked in tandem to disseminate images widely.

The artwork not only serves as a historical record of General Williams but also exemplifies the artistic conventions of the early 19th century in America, showcasing the interplay between painting and printmaking. While the exact location and ownership of the original Sully painting and Dodson's engraving may require further research, the work remains an important piece within the oeuvre of Thomas Sully and the history of American art. It reflects the period's aesthetic values and the role of portraiture in celebrating and memorializing notable individuals in American society.
