EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic National Washington Monument in all its grandeur. Created by AC Warren, this artwork captures the essence of one of America's most significant landmarks during its early years. The photograph dates back to 1855, a time when the monument was still under construction and wouldn't be completed for another three decades. Originally designed with a colonnade that would have housed statues commemorating thirty heroes of the War of Independence, this feature was never built. Nevertheless, the sheer size and magnificence of the obelisk stand tall against the backdrop of Washington DC's landscape. The print is taken from John Howard Hinton's History and Topography of the United States of North America, Volume 2. Samuel Walker published it in Boston in 1855, offering viewers a glimpse into American history through art. In this image, nature intertwines with architecture as trees surround the monument grounds. This juxtaposition symbolizes how George Washington's legacy harmoniously coexists with nature within our great country. As we admire this engraving today, we are reminded not only of George Washington's contributions but also those who worked tirelessly to construct such an enduring tribute to his memory. This print serves as a testament to both American ingenuity and artistic talent during the nineteenth century—a timeless representation captured by AC Warren for generations to come.
