George Washington
George Washington was the first president of the United States. His term lasted from 1789 to 1797. He got elected during the 1787 Constitutional Convention after the War for Independence. The Founding Father is an important historical figure, so his face is everywhere! But did he actually look like that?
What George Washington Really Looked Like
Researchers used his portraits to make a computer-generated rendering of him. Based on it, paintings of Washington seem authentic. The rendering is realistic enough that it captured his five o’clock shadow and full head of hair. He was 67 years old when he passed away on the 14th of December 1799.
