EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the historic Fraunces Tavern, located at 101 Broad Street on the corner of Pearl Street in New York City. The drawing, created in 1889, beautifully captures the exterior of this iconic building where a significant moment in American history unfolded. In 1783, General George Washington bid farewell to his officers within these very walls. It was here on December 4th that he said his emotional goodbyes before departing from the Continental Army as its commander-in-chief. This poignant event marked the end of an era and symbolized Washington's commitment to civilian rule. The drawing showcases a bustling late 19th-century street scene surrounding Fraunces Tavern. People can be seen going about their daily lives, unaware of the historical significance embedded within those brick walls. The image transports us back to a time when Broadway was known as North Street and Wall Street had yet to become synonymous with finance. Fraunces Tavern stands tall amidst its surroundings, exuding an air of importance and grandeur. Its architectural details are meticulously captured by the artist's hand, showcasing its stately presence along Broad Street. This remarkable print serves as a reminder of our nation's rich heritage and pays homage to one of America's founding fathers who stood within these hallowed halls over two centuries ago.
