George Washington
The first ever President of the United States, George Washington had a big part in establishing a new federal government. He remains a highly revered United States historical figure and the Founding Father can be seen everywhere, from a dollar bill to numerous museums and government buildings throughout the country. People are pretty familiar with his face.
What George Washington Really Looked Like
Researchers used painted portraits and detailed renderings in making this computer-generated photo of Washington. This image is very realistic and you can actually see the Founding Father’s full head of hair (all his and white) and his five o’clock shadow. He died at 67 years old on December 14, 1799, after he had complications from a sore throat.
