Description
George Washington commanded the Continental Army to victory in the American Revolutionary War, presided over the writing of the Constitution, and served as the first President of the United States from 1789 to 1797—developing the forms and rituals of government, including the cabinet system and inaugural address, that have defined the office ever since. This solid brass bookmark reproduces his portrait in a giclee print with a hand-applied braided tassel.
Museum Story
