EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking 1849 print depicts a pivotal moment in American history: George Washington delivering his inaugural address on April 30, 1789, in New York City's Old City Hall. The image captures the solemnity and gravity of the occasion as Washington, dressed in his military uniform, addresses the members of the Congress gathered before him. The text of Washington's speech is inscribed at the bottom of the print, reminding us of the profound words that ushered in a new era for the young nation. Washington's inaugural address marked the formal beginning of the federal government under the newly ratified United States Constitution. In his speech, Washington emphasized the importance of unity and the rule of law, stating, "We are to be united, and to consider ourselves as a single people." He also acknowledged the sacrifices made by the founding fathers and expressed his hope for a peaceful and prosperous future for the United States. The print serves as a poignant reminder of the historical significance of Washington's inauguration and the profound impact of his leadership on the development of the American republic. The image of Washington delivering his address before the Congress in Old City Hall is a powerful symbol of the beginning of a new chapter in American history, one that would shape the course of the nation for generations to come.
