This group portrait of the children of New York businessman Jacob Thuthill Vanderhoof and their maternal great-grandfather Reverend Zachariah Greene depicts the interior of the Vanderhoof residence at 55 Seventh Street. The family is surrounded by the trappings of a typical upper-middle-class parlor, including a tapestry velvet rug, elegant window draperies, a Rococo Revival armchair, and marble-topped center table. This is the type of parlor that most middle-class Americans would have desired during the mid-nineteenth century.
