General Washington's Tomb at Mount Vernon (Copy after Engraving in The Port Folio Magazine, 1810)
Small stone building with a rounded wooden door set into an arched opening, surrounded by trees on a hill. The building appears to be a tomb. Light-colored stone blocks make up the walls. The door is brown with diagonal panels. There are trees on either side of the structure and behind it. The sky is blueish-gray with white clouds. A body of water is in front of the structure. The scene is framed by a thin black border.
