一名被奴役的妇女被称作 " Aunt Betsy " ,在弗吉尼亚州汉诺威县的 " Hickory Hill " 种植园为威廉姆斯·卡特·威克姆的四个孩子担任了护士。 弗朗西斯·布莱克韦尔·迈尔(Francis Blackwell Mayer)是一位马里兰州艺术家和家人朋友,他把这幅贝特西的肖像画作送给了两个长子. 弗兰克·迈尔是一位有名的美国流派画家,他主要以水彩画和油画而出名. 他与威克汉克家族的私人关系,导致了对威克汉克被奴役的仆人之一的非常个性化的描写. 被奴役的非裔美国人所画的肖像画在前期很少见. 幸存的威克汉克家庭文件表明,“Aunt Betsy”作为自由妇女于1865年秋季去世。 她的生平和对肖像的看法鲜为人知。
