Public Buildings in Washington, 1874. Creator: John Filmer
Public Buildings in Washington, 1874. Treasury Department; White House Front View; Smithsonian Institute; [Capitol Building], City Hall, White House Rear View; View from Agricultural Grounds, Washington DC, USA. The most striking object at Washington is undoubtedly the magnificent white-marble Capitol...It rises majestically far above all surrounding objects, amid a nest of thick and darkly verdant foliage, on the brow of the hill to which it gives its name; its very lofty dome, with its tiers of columns, its rich ornamentation, and its summit surmounted by the colossal statue of Liberty, presents a noble appearance, and may be seen for many miles around. From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of public buildings in Washington, D. C. in 1874. Taken by John Filmer, this image showcases iconic landmarks such as the Treasury Department, White House (both front and rear views), Smithsonian Institute, City Hall, and the magnificent Capitol Building. The centerpiece of this photograph is undoubtedly the awe-inspiring white-marble Capitol. Rising majestically above its surroundings, it stands proudly on a hill adorned with lush green foliage. Its lofty dome adorned with tiers of columns and intricate ornamentation commands attention from miles away. At its summit sits a colossal statue of Liberty, symbolizing freedom and strength. John Filmer's lens skillfully captures the architectural beauty and historical significance of these structures that have become synonymous with American democracy. The photo provides a glimpse into Washington's rich heritage during an era when America was rapidly evolving. This remarkable image is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant in 1874. It serves as a testament to both Filmer's artistic talent and his dedication to preserving history through photography. As we gaze upon this timeless print today, we are transported back to an era where these public buildings stood as symbols of progress and national pride—a reminder that their legacy continues to shape our nation's identity even after more than a century has passed.
