ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The Potomac River is riddled with historical significance. Capt. John Smith mapped the river in 1608, and did so with astonishing accuracy. President George Washington was born on it, lived on it and died on it. He also established the new nation’s capital on it, and referred to it as the Nation’s River. John Quincy Adams went skinny-dipping in the Potomac River every day of his presidency, from 1825 to 1829. But by 1860 the river was so polluted President Abraham Lincoln rode three miles out of Washington every night on horseback to get away from the stench. John Wilkes Booth crossed the Potomac River at Port Tobacco in a 12-foot boat with a broken leg, six nights after assassinating Lincoln. The saiboats I painted were on Daingerfield Island in Alexandria, Virginia, just minutes from the US capitol
