This print resides in the collections of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association with over 1,000 "early views" of the Mansion. This ornament is on fine porcelain in a setting of 24-karat gold-finished brass. Engraved Christmas 1996 on the back with the words: Mount Vernon Circa 1816, adapted from a hand-tinted engraving by P.Fumagalli. Item #: 80275 Price: $18.95 Qty:
