the library of congress thomas jefferson building i used my phone to take photos so i can t edit them a large percentage of items including correspondence all reproductions were provided by the royal collection and hm king charles iii the two men had more in common than you would think both were farmers both were surveyors both had difficult childhoods i spent nearly two hours in the exhibit going back through for a second time according to the library of congress the exhibition brings together three extraordinary collections george washington s papers from the library of congress george iii s scientific instruments from the science museum group in london and george iii s papers from the royal collection and royal archives for the first time these materials allow us to examine the parallel lives of these two men who were born just six years apart they show how both were shaped by the british empire the enlightenment and revolution they reveal their shared interests in science and agriculture and illuminate how they approached the challenges of their time including war slavery politics and the pressures of public life this is a portrait of hrh frederick louis prince of wales father of george iii the portrait was painted by bartholomew dandridge 1691 1755 his youngest brother colonel john dandridge emigrated from england and settled in virginia john s eldest daughter and bartholomew s niece martha married george washington the exhibit runs through july 4th the companion book is excellent it is not a catalog of the exhibit but it does include the item on display as one would expect from the library of congress the book is well researched true scholarship it is available in hardcover and paperback editions https amzn to 42g2mav us and yes the book is also available
