Background

Scope and content:

Four photographs related to Mary Randolph Custis Lee. This group compiled by Washington and Lee includes two images of an early portrait of Mrs. Lee, a modern photograph of Mrs. Lee's soaking chair that was designed for her at the Warm Springs in Bath County, Va., and a modern photograph of a child's doll that was likely in the Lee family. The images of the Lee portrait are 20th century photographic prints of glass plate negatives of the portraits made by Michael Miley of Lexington, Va. in 1885.
