In 1862 the first one-dollar bill was issued as a Legal Tender Note (United States Note) with a portrait of Salmon P. Chase, the Secretary of the Treasury under PresidentAbraham Lincoln.
In 1869 the $1 United States Note was redesigned with a portrait of George Washington in the center and a vignette of Christopher Columbus sighting land to the left. The obverse of the note also featured green and blue tinting. Although this note is technically a United States Note, TREASURY NOTE appeared on it instead of UNITED STATES NOTE.
Gilbert Stuart painted the portrait from which the likeness on the dollar is taken.

The engraving used to print Washington's likeness on the one dollar bill was based on a Gibert Stuart portrait of George Washington.
Stuart was a gifted artist who was known his whole career for his unaffected and very accurate portrayals of all those he painted. Stuart painted Washington at least four different times, and while all are obviously Washington, each differs slightly. His "unfinished" Washington, the picture of Washington on the one dollar bill, is considered his most accurate painting of the first president.
