<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 25404454, member: 101855&quot;]I went to the Boston Fine Arts Museum a number of times when I worked in the city many years ago. I was not aware of the coin collection. I often went to see the Gilbert Stuart George Washington Athenaeum painting. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1627172[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Stuart never finished this portrait because he wanted to keep it to use for future works. If you look at other painting of Washington by Stuart, you will see this same head over and over. </p><p><br /></p><p>Stuart was not good with money. He called the copies he made of this piece his &quot;hundred dollar bills&quot; because that was what he got for many of the copies he made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
