Washington trazendo sua mãe para o salão de baile, Fredericksburg

Ca. 1890-1896

Howard Pyle captures a moment of intense social deference in 18th-century America with his signature realistic flair. George Washington, tall and commanding in his dark coat, escorts his mother Mary into a ballroom, causing the crowd of powdered elites to bow and scrape in unison. Mary, dressed in somber black, looks almost severe amidst the frivolity of floral silks and fans—a charming reminder that even the Father of His Country had to mind his manners around his formidable mom.
