A pair of green-tinted spectacles is on display in the Monticello Visitors Center. These are believed to have belonged to Thomas Jefferson, although we do not know precisely what he used them for. According to Silvio Bedini, tinted glasses first appeared around 1810. They were not typically used as sunglasses as we might think of them, but “to improve the vision out of doors.”
why is he not depicted wearing these in every portrait
Somebody with art skills please rectify this horrible oversight.

Cutest co-captains ever. And no one can convince me otherwise. ;3;/ ~♥
I can see these two saving each other’s butts whenever possible. I know Buggy’s pretty strong, but people seem to forget that Alvida can carry A GIANT IRON SPIKED CLUB. So I thought it’d be hilarious if she can carry Buggy and/or his men pretty easily!
(One day, I will state the reasons why I ship these two. One day.)
