This painting is very smooth, really brings out the silk on the two figures.

When 'The Garb' or Plain Dress stood out, my Quaker forebears decided to dress like everyone else, again to avoid ostentation. Quakers never objected to making money through agriculture or trade or manufacture. They did emphasize 'fair trading' practices and taking only reasonable profits, even in times of high demand for certain goods.

Aptly renamed in 2023: Bougie-ly Boring There's so much that feels off to me about these two... They're in their 20s? They both look older and tired. This is supposed to support buying American but she's wearing the finest Chinese silk? Idgi. Very interesting from a historical perspective - I don't hear about Whigs often - but not my favorite either way.
