Washington on his Deathbed, 1851
Junius Brutus Stearns is best known for his series of four historical paintings depicting the life of the first President of the United States, George Washington. This image is the last in this series. Stearns' meticulous research (the artist spoke to Washington's step-grandson and read eyewitness accounts of the event) adds to the painting's heightened dramatic realism. Martha Washington stands by her husband's side, while the President's superintendent, Tobias Lear, holds his hand. Washington's friend and doctor, James Craik, stands at the foot of the bed. The figures at the right are the five servants who were present at the President's death. Stearns finished this series in 1849, the fiftieth anniversary of Washington's death.

Wikipedia Description: Dayton Art Institute
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dayton Art Institute (DAI) is a museum of fine arts in Dayton, Ohio, USA.
Founded in a downtown mansion in 1919 as the Dayton Museum of Fine Arts, the museum moved to its own building in 1930. Modeled after the Italian Renaissance Villa d'Este, near Rome, and the Villa Farnese at Caprarola, Italy, the new building overlooks downtown Dayton from across the Great Miami River.
The museum was later renamed The Dayton Art Institute as an indication of the growing importance of its school in addition to the museum. The nearly 60,000 square-foot building is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The museum's collection contains more than 20,000 objects spanning 5,000 years. In September, 2005, the Museum became one of eleven galleries in the US to host The Quest for Immortality: Treasures of Ancient Egypt, the largest collection of ancient artifacts ever to travel outside Egypt.

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired.
Trips this year:
three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA),
a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean,
another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and
my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc).
Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else..
Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
