EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning black and white lithograph, titled "Washington, 1827," is a captivating depiction of the first President of the United States, General George Washington. Created by renowned American artist Rembrandt Peale in 1827, this masterpiece is a testament to the rich artistic and historical heritage of the United States in the 19th century. The portrait showcases Washington in an oval-shaped frame, with his head and shoulders taking center stage. Peale's expert use of lithography, a printing technique that involves drawing on a limestone plate, is evident in the intricate details of Washington's wrinkled skin, expressive eyes, and the folds of his clothing. The background is adorned with delicate floral patterns, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the piece. This historic artwork is a significant addition to any art collection or gallery, museum, or institute, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the political and cultural climate of the time. The image of Washington, with his stern yet thoughtful expression, serves as a reminder of the major role he played in shaping the country's history and politics. The lithograph, which measures approximately 12 x 10 inches, is in black on cream wove paper laid down on thick cream wove paper. The use of lithotint, a variant of lithography that involves the application of color, adds depth and dimension to the portrait, making it a true work of art. This rare and valuable piece is a must-have for anyone interested in American history, art, or politics.
