Mount Vernon

American, circa 1830
Watercolor on paper, in a period gilt frame with replaced eglomise glass, 20 ½ x 26 ½ inches

This colorful and nicely detailed schoolgirl watercolor is based on the well known engraving, “Mount Vernon in Virginia,” first published in 1800 by Francis Jukes (1745-1812). This view of Mount Vernon as depicted in this specific print was a popular subject for American school girl watercolors and needlework created during the first decades of the nineteenth century.
