Book Name: American Rifle Biography
Writer: Alexander Rose
George Washington, never precisely a lively or happy soul, was today even
more sad than usual.1It was May 21, 1772, and throughout the day he had
been presenting for his picture still, gracelessly wearing an antique uniform
originally tailored for a more youthful, slimmer man.2 The painter—a
cutting-edge craftsman by the name of Charles Willson Peale—was
absolutely taking as much time as necessary about it.3And at that point,
finally, Washington was permitted to see the outcome. There he was,
looking dubiously younger (Peale realized how to compliment his subject
s) than his forty years may recommend, yet in any case, the resemblance
was most accurate.There he stood, Colonel George Washington of the dead
Virginia Regiment, officer, honorable man, steadfast worker of His Majesty,
and veteran of the French and Indian War.
