Plaque

The Plaque by James Barton Longacre shows a round, silver-colored metal object with a raised relief of a man's head in profile, facing left. The man has curly hair that is pulled back and tied at the nape of the neck. His hairline is receding, and he has a prominent nose and jawline. The words "G. WASHINGTON" are raised and arched over the top of the head. The background of the object is textured with small dots or lines, giving it a subtle pattern. The plaque is set against a plain white background.
