National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a stylized artistic illustration of George Washington. It includes a central triangular monument with an illustrated portrait of Washington's head and shoulders, labeled "G. Washington." The portrait emphasizes his facial features and white hair. Surrounding the monument are two blue-striped columns with pink and blue floral vines, connecting at the top arch. A pair of blue and pink draperies with scallop and bow designs adorns the top. The background is solid tan, and the floor has a checked pattern in alternating brown and white. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right corner.
