Absolutely stunning portrait. I was honored to meet and spend time with Pauline Copes Johnson, the great-great-great-grandniece of Harriet Tubman, at her home in Auburn, NY, on several occasions. She was a beautiful soul, full of grace and kindness. I was saddened to learn of her recent passing at the age of 98.
