Roger, that Helm painting of MTL as a young woman is just beautiful. I am sure that Mary herself would be thrilled that it hangs officially in the Lincoln Bedroom!Wink

Thanks for producing it here for all to see.

I remember reading somewhere that RTL felt that the Healy painting was the most accurate likeness of his father that he had ever seen. It was also a favorite of Jacqueline Kennedy. During important State occasions she always directed her staff to make sure it was prominently displayed.
