EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, created by Currier & Ives in 1876, transports us back to a momentous occasion in American history - a presidential reception held in 1789. The print depicts none other than President George Washington and his esteemed wife Martha Washington, surrounded by an array of distinguished guests. The scene exudes elegance and sophistication as the first couple stands at the center of attention. President Washington, dressed impeccably in his formal attire, exudes authority and grace. Mrs. Washington is equally resplendent in her fashionable gown and bonnet, embodying the epitome of poise and refinement. The lithograph captures not only the fashion trends of that era but also provides a glimpse into the atmosphere of this patriotic gathering. Men donning powdered wigs engage in lively conversations with women adorned in their finest attire. It is evident that this event was significant for both socializing and political discourse among America's founding fathers. Nathaniel Merritt Currier and James Ives skillfully bring this historical moment to life through their artistic prowess. Their attention to detail allows us to feel as though we are present at this grand reception ourselves. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, let it serve as a reminder of our nation's rich history and the influential figures who shaped it.
