Old Bruton Church, Williamsburg, Virginia, in the Time of Lord Dunmore

The painting depicts a colonial-style church with a steeple on the left and a slanted roof. The church is brick-colored and has several tall, narrow windows on the side facing the viewer. In the foreground, people in colonial clothing are gathered, some on horseback and others on foot. A group of horse-drawn carriages are also present. The people wear 18th-century attire, including hats, coats, and dresses. Some men wear red or brown coats, and women wear long dresses. The background includes trees, some bare and some with leaves, and a cloudy sky. A graveyard is on the left side.
