介绍（中）	从约翰·Q·艾玛位于纽约格林威治街的家中的窗户可以看到停靠在哈德逊河上的船只的桅杆，这标志着他作为西印度群岛朗姆酒和咖啡进口商的成功。更重要的是，他的商业实力在他装饰华丽的客厅里得到了展示，客厅里摆满了最新时尚的精美地毯、窗帘和家具：一张大理石顶的中央桌子，上面装饰着水果和佩斯利披肩，一张带镀金镜子的餐桌，还有一个餐具柜。艾玛的妻子伊丽莎白和两个女儿玛丽和伊丽莎白构成了家庭和谐的场景。艾玛家族长期以来一直将这幅画归功于塞缪尔·F·B·莫尔斯，现在这幅画被重新分配给了乔治·特威比尔，他是莫尔斯在国家设计学院的学生。Twibill罕见的作品总是一丝不苟，充满魅力，室内的准确性使温暖的表达加倍艾玛家族将这幅画连同展出的大部分家具一起赠送给了博物馆。因此，这不仅是一幅可爱的肖像画，也是19世纪30年代纽约生活的非凡文献。
介绍（英）	The masts of ships docked on the Hudson River can be seen through the window of John Q. Aymar's home on Greenwich Street in New York, marking his success as an importer of rum and coffee from the West Indies. More to the point, his mercantile prowess is displayed in his richly furnished parlor, replete with fine carpets, draperies, and furniture in the latest fashion: a marble-top center table adorned with fruit and a paisley shawl, a pier table with a gilded mirror, and a sideboard. Aymar's wife, Elizabeth, and two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, complete the scene of domestic harmony. Long attributed by the Aymar family to Samuel F. B. Morse, the painting has been reassigned to George Twibill, who was a student of Morse at the National Academy of Design. Twibill's rare works are unfailingly meticulous and charming, and here the expression of warmth is redoubled by the accuracy of the interior. The Aymar family presented this painting to the Museum along with most of the furniture that is shown in it. It is thus not only a lovely portrait but also an extraordinary document of life in New York in the 1830s.
