Oval portrait of Rev. Jonathan Boucher (1738-1804), clergyman, teacher, preacher and philologist. In 1759 he went to Virginia as a private tutor in the families of the planters. He later ran a school, at which he taught John Parke Custis, the stepson of George Washington with whom he began a close friendship. Despite this, his loyalty to the Crown forced him to return to England in 1775. In 1797 he published 'A View of the Causes and Consequences of the American Revolution, which he dedicated to Washington.
