Washington and His Generals with Key is a 1856 by Alexander Hay Ritchie, a Impressionism work, depicting George Washington, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows George Washington sitting at a table with five generals around him. Two maps hang on the wall behind them. The room looks plain with simple furniture. The faces stand out. Each man has a different expression—some stern, some tired. The artist used tiny dots to build up the image. Check out this print at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
Alexander Hay Ritchie (January 21, 1822 – September 19, 1895) was a Scottish-born American artist and engraver.
