The picture on the dollar is taken from an official painting of Washington. He had dentures which changed the shape of his mouth and the painting was done late in his life. Historians have found he actually didn't look the way we see him on the dollar bill or in the painting done of him. When the dollar bill was made he was dead, so all we had to go on was the painting to use for the dollar.
