- This painting shows Esther Boardman an educated and intelligent women from a very influential family. 
- According to the two documents for this week, the lives of women during this time were not as polished or extravagant as this painting indicates. However, similarly to Esther who is reading under a tree in this painting, Mary Dewees was also educated and recorded her experiences of travelling in her journal. Furthermore, Mary Dewees stated in her journal “we live entirely Independant, and with that there is a pleasure which Dependants can never be partakers of” which I believe she was expressing that the adoption of the constitution would cause dependency and inability to express freedom. Historically, during this time reading literature and women philosophers were becoming very popular. In 1790, Massachusetts native Judith Sargent Murray questioned the status of women in her essay “On the Equality of the Sexes.”]]> 2022-10-13 21:13:21 UTC https://padlet.com/coursematerialbackup/hy1wxz82twrotwkz/wish/2339430541
