Few spots in the capital were as open as this one, where an equestrian bronze of George Washington stood in a traffic circle at the meeting of Pennsylvania Avenue, New Hampshire Avenue and 23rd Street. Sculptor Clark Mills made the statue, which was dedicated in 1860 and ranks among the earliest large bronze equestrian monuments in the United States. The picture shows how the young city was still taking shape around its monuments, when open ground and sparse building were common in the nation's capital.
