Panorama of Washington
This panorama features 33 hand-colored views of buildings in Washington, DC, culminating in a large image of the Capitol at the bottom. A portrait of George Washington at the top is accompanied by the famous words from Henry "Light Horse Harry" Lee's eulogy of Washington that he was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen."
