EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating lithograph, titled "Life of George Washington - The Farmer" takes us back to the year 1853. Created by Junius Brutus Stearns, this artwork showcases the multifaceted life of George Washington, the first President of the United States. Set against a picturesque rural scene at Mount Vernon, Washington's estate, we witness an idyllic farming landscape. African American farm workers can be seen diligently harvesting crops while children play nearby. The hay cart is filled to the brim with freshly cut hay as horses patiently wait for their next task. The atmosphere exudes tranquility and hard work simultaneously. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every element contributes to its authenticity. From the traditional smocks worn by farmers to the various tools such as pitchforks and scythes scattered around, it truly captures an agricultural way of life during that era. As we admire this historical snapshot, we are reminded not only of Washington's pivotal role in shaping America but also his dedication to his land and people. This artwork serves as a testament to his commitment towards building a prosperous nation from its very foundations – starting with agriculture. Displayed within private collections today, this print offers us a glimpse into both history and artistry alike. It encapsulates not just one man's life but also represents an entire era defined by hard work on American soil.
