George Wythe's Study by khawbecker

George Wythe's Study

We toured George Wythe's house today in Colonial Williamsburg. This is the desk in his study. Mr. Wythe was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the first law professor at the College of William and Mary. Wythe taught Thomas Jefferson.
Now that is a Professors's desk! Beautiful shot with the inkwell and quill in the center.

@davydo Thanks, Dave. I love the cubbyholes in this desk. I imagine the many letters he must have written at this desk. They are truly places of deep emotion.
