Mort Künstler – “Welcome to LeHewtown, Col. Washington” Custom Framed Print 15" x 18"
Product Overview
Offered here is a beautifully custom-framed open edition print titled “Welcome to LeHewtown, Col. Washington” by renowned historical artist Mort Künstler.
This evocative winter scene captures a young George Washington during his early military career, as he is warmly received by townspeople in a snow-covered colonial setting. The glow of lantern light, the gathering crowd, and the quiet snowfall create a powerful sense of anticipation and respect for a leader whose legacy was just beginning.
Künstler masterfully blends atmosphere, storytelling, and historical detail—bringing this intimate and lesser-seen moment of Washington’s life vividly to life.
