This black and white daguerreotype, taken by renowned photographer Mathew Brady in 1848, showcases the elegant beauty of Nee Payne, the wife of James Madison. Dolley Madison (1768-1849), as she is more commonly known, was not only a beloved First Lady but also an influential figure in American history. In this portrait, Dolley exudes grace and poise as she gazes into the distance with a serene expression.
