tL’s phOTOGRAPH_oF_tHE_dAY #1615 - Mt. Vernon, is the most noted colonial estate in America and the plantation home of George Washington, the dominant military and political leader of the new United States of America from 1775 to 1797, commander in chief of the Continental Army, 1775–1783, and presided over the writing of the Constitution in 1787 and the first President of the United States. Today, the ‘Bowling Green’ creates a foreground for Mt. Vernon, evoking the naturalistic style of American landscapes appreciated by George Washington.
