Scope and Contents

A damaged large framed Woolwork of the Gilbert Stuart portrait of George Washington was gifted to Valdosta State University and Special Collections.  After several years, chemisty student Ann K Williams and Deborah Davis did conservation work on the Woolwork.  The mold stains were removed and the portrait reframed.  It is now hanging in the stairwell of Ashley Hall.
