Study for The Hollingsworth Family is a 1840 unspecified by George Hollingsworth, a Realism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
The painting depicts a man and a woman, both dressed in dark attire, with the man on the left and the woman on the right. The man wears a dark coat over a white shirt and a dark bow tie, while the woman is dressed in a dark dress with a white collar and a bonnet. The background of the painting is dark, with a faint image of another person visible behind the couple. In the foreground, the couple's clothing and accessories are rendered in detail, with the man's coat and the woman's bonnet being particularly notable. The overall mood of the painting is somber, with the dark colors and serious expressions of the subjects contributing to a sense of gravity.
