托马斯·杰斐逊是一位科学家,一位启蒙哲学家,也是美国历史上最有成就和最复杂的人物之一,他撰写了"独立宣言"并服务于他的国家,担任政治家,外交官和总统. 1803年,他第一次出任总统期间,他策划了路易斯安那采购计划,使美国的规模翻了一番,并建立了国家作为一个大陆强国. 这一扩张比任何其他都更迫使政治家们对抗美国经济对奴隶制的依赖. 杰斐逊在成年生涯中奴役了六百多名非裔美国人,与他哲学信仰和对被奴役的依赖相去甚远. 1786年,杰斐逊出任美国驻法国公使时,他拜访了朋友约翰·亚当斯,当时是美国驻大不列颠公使. 亚当斯建议杰斐逊为当时住在伦敦的波士顿出生的艺术家马瑟·布朗作姿势. 这是杰斐逊最早已知的相似之处.
