John Singleton Copley first portrayed Mercy Otis Warren with roses—their ghosts can still be seen beneath the green nasturtium leaves. X-rays of the portrait suggest that Mrs. Warren originally stood before a masonry wall. These revisions placed the sitter more directly with the world of nature; the flowers she tends, but does not cut, are a trope for her role within the family as nurturer of children. Nasturtiums were also symbolic of patriotism and thus a prophetic choice of flower for this author or a three-volume history of the American Revolution. See Mrs. Warren before she goes back to @MFABoston on June 3.
