Description: Cropped illustration of Jeremiah Dixon surveying the Mason–Dixon line, circa 1763–1768. (Neither Mason nor Dixon are clearly labeled as such, but this figure is positioned at right. The illustration was created long after they were both dead, so the image is more a representation than an exact likeness anyway.)
