Washington from Arlington Heights, 1874. Creator: Robert Hinshelwood
Washington from Arlington Heights, 1874. View across the Potomac to the Capitol Building, Washington DC, USA. The site chosen by the first Congress for the capital of the United States, and christened by the name of the first president, is a broad plateau, which...rises to a graceful elevation, and is bounded on two sides by the river Potomac and its tributary called the " Eastern Branch". The main portion of the city, including its business quarter, its public buildings, its main thoroughfares, and its aristocratic residences, stands upon a rather level plain...while the Capitol rears itself upon a sloping elevation, and overlooks a wide extent of country. From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]
