A Toast to All Our Friends: A Historic Moment at George Washington's Christmas Dinner at Mount Vernon, 1790 This evocative print captures a moment of warmth and camaraderie from the past, as George Washington proposes a toast during a festive Christmas dinner at his beloved home, Mount Vernon. Dressed in the finery of the era, Washington raises his glass, his expression one of joviality and goodwill, as he looks around the table at his esteemed guests. The room is filled with the rich aromas of a traditional 18th-century holiday feast, with roasted meats, savory pies, and sweet desserts laid out before them. The year is 1790, and Washington, having just completed his first term as President of the United States, is taking a brief respite from his duties to enjoy the company of his friends and family. The table is set with fine china, crystal glasses, and gleaming silverware, reflecting the prosperity and elegance of the new nation. As Washington proposes the toast, the room falls silent, all eyes on him, waiting to hear his words. "To all our friends," he says, his voice carrying through the room, "may this holiday season bring you joy, happiness, and prosperity in the coming year." With that, the room erupts in laughter and applause, and the celebration continues late into the night. This print, from the esteemed archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of history when traditions, family, and friendship were at the heart of the holiday season.
