DESCRIPTION
Discover one of the most distinguished women of 19th-Century Virginia with Mary Anna Custis Lee, a graceful original fine-art portrait by author, historian, and artist Lochlainn Seabrook.
Mary Anna Randolph Custis Lee (1808–1873), wife of General Robert E. Lee and great-granddaughter of Martha Washington, was born into one of America’s most prominent families.
 
Raised at Arlington House, the celebrated Custis estate overlooking Washington, D.C., she inherited an extraordinary connection to the nation’s founding generation through her father, George Washington Parke Custis, the adopted grandson of George Washington.
 
Cultivated, artistic, religious, and devoted to her family, Mary Anna was herself a talented painter and an important keeper of the Washington family legacy. Her life was dramatically transformed by America’s War Between the States, when Arlington House was seized and occupied by Federal forces and eventually converted in part into what became Arlington National Cemetery.
 
In this richly detailed work of academic realism, distinguished multidisciplinary artist Lochlainn Seabrook portrays Mary Anna with the refinement, dignity, femininity, intelligence, and quiet strength befitting a woman whose remarkable life connected the families of George Washington and Robert E. Lee and spanned some of the most consequential decades in American history.
 
Printed in full color on ultra-smooth 80 lb. poster stock, Mary Anna Custis Lee measures 11 × 17 inches—a convenient portrait format that is easy to frame and display in a home, office, study, library, classroom, historical collection, Civil War room, or traditionally furnished interior.
 
For admirers of Mary Anna Custis Lee, Robert E. Lee, George and Martha Washington, Arlington House, the Confederacy, War Between the States history, Southern history, Virginia history, women’s history, or historical portraiture, our fine art poster Mary Anna Custis Lee offers an unusual and elegant addition to any collection.
 
It also makes an excellent gift for historians, Civil War enthusiasts, teachers, students, collectors, genealogists, and anyone fascinated by the distinguished women whose lives connected America’s founding generation with the turbulent events of the 19th Century.
