This is a wonderful illustration showing George Washington as the
Gentleman Farmer on his estate at Mount Vernon. Washington is
pictured among Black field hands, who are bringing in a bountiful
Hay harvest. Several young children are seen playing in the
foreground of the picture. The Mount Vernon home is pictured in the
background. This is a beautiful piece of artwork, and captures
Washington in one of his quieter, more peaceful moments. |
