    ☝️ This 19th-century painting by Francis William Edmonds depicting the U.S. Census of 1850 is in the . Feel free to share or remix it—after you take the census of course. ✅

    An oil painting set in the modest living room of a 19th-century family home. In the center, a middle-aged man stands by a lit fireplace with his hands raised in a counting motion. On the mantle is an assortment of household objects and a hanging portrait of George Washington. To the man's left, a woman dressed in black sits in a wooden chair with a baby in her lap. Three additional children crouch behind their mother's chair, listening intently to their father's conversation. A final child can be spotted in the shadows behind the family's kitchen counter to the very far left of the composition. To the man's right an older man with a black top hat stands writing in an open book with a white feather quill. A young boy accompanies him holding a spare inkwell and quill in one hand and additional paperwork in the other.
    📣 Haven't taken the ? Now is the time! The deadline is October 5 → This is the earliest known portrayal of the US census-taking process—a funny look at a dad's painstaking efforts to recall his family stats. Learn more:
