This is a watercolor painting of Great Geneva painted circa 1850 by Lydia Sharpless Hunn. It remains in the Hunn family.

Great Geneva is a historic home located near Camden, Kent County, Delaware. It was built in about 1765, and is a 2+1⁄2-story, brick, hall-and-parlor plan dwelling with a small frame kitchen wing. The layout is an adaptation of the Resurrection Manor plan. It is associated with the prominent Hunn family and the local Quaker community. The house was an important station on the Underground Railroad.^[2]^[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.^[1]
