Michael Trekur

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a person standing next to a horse. The person has 18th-century facial features, white hair styled back, and wears a military-style uniform. They hold a tricorn hat in one hand. An oval frame surrounds the figure, with the name "WASHINGTON" at the top. The background resembles the American flag, with red and white stripes and shield emblems at the top and bottom.
