Longfellow's House

 

I especially loved this painting of his daughters.

This is the beautiful home of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. He was one of the world’s foremost 19th century poets. The house also served as headquarters for General George Washington during the Siege of Boston, July 1775 - April 1776. I really loved the feel of his house. He was a family man who dearly loved his wife and children. It's a wonderful place to visit.
