EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1798, offering a glimpse into the majestic Mount Vernon, Virginia. The West view of this iconic estate showcases the home of none other than George Washington himself, the first President of the United States. Nestled on the banks of the picturesque Potomac River, Mount Vernon exudes an air of grandeur and tranquility. The artist behind this aquatint masterpiece is George Isham Parkyns, who skillfully captures every detail in his work. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported to a cloudy day in late 18th-century America. The landscape surrounding Mount Vernon is lush and green with towering trees that provide shade and serenity. In this scenic view, a lone horseman can be seen riding along the riverside path near Washington's residence. This person adds a touch of life to an otherwise peaceful setting. It reminds us that even amidst such beauty and solitude, there were individuals going about their daily lives in service or leisure. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this historical gem for our enjoyment today. Through their lens, we get to appreciate not only the architectural marvel that was Mount Vernon but also gain insight into Washington's world as he resided here during his presidency. As we admire this print by Granger Collection from NYC, let it serve as a reminder of our nation's rich history and pay homage to one of its most revered figures - George Washington - whose legacy continues to inspire generations till date
