EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "WASHINGTON: TRENTON, 1789" captures a significant moment in American history. It depicts the reception of President-elect George Washington at Trenton, New Jersey on April 21,1789, as he made his way to his inauguration in New York City. The steel engraving, created around 1870 by Michael Angelo Wageman after his painting, beautifully portrays the scene. In this historic image, we see a grand arch adorned with patriotic flags and flowers serving as the backdrop for the event. A diverse crowd has gathered to witness this monumental occasion; men and women dressed in late 18th-century clothing eagerly await Washington's arrival. A young girl stands among them, her eyes filled with admiration for the founding father. Washington himself is depicted on horseback wearing a distinguished uniform and tricorn hat. As he rides through the crowd, spectators wave their hats and cheer him on enthusiastically. A loyal dog accompanies him faithfully by his side. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation and pride as America celebrates its first president's journey towards assuming office. This remarkable print serves as a testament to our nation's early beginnings and pays homage to one of its most revered leaders. Granger Art on Demand presents this extraordinary piece from their collection without any commercial intentions but rather aims to preserve and share important historical moments like these for generations to come.
