Washington, between classical grandeur and American poetry
Federal capital of the United States, Washington D.C. is a city of balance, history, and symbols. With its monumental avenues, elegant parks, museums, and tranquil Potomac banks, the city has inspired painters for two centuries with its peaceful light and architectural harmony.
Between power and serenity, Washington embodies the meeting point between the solemnity of the past and the poetry of the American landscape.
Through this collection, Artem Legrand pays tribute to Washington, as depicted by Charles Sheeler, John Marin, Edward Hopper, George Bellows, Winslow Homer, Childe Hassam, and Maurice Prendergast. These artists captured the understated beauty and luminous depth of the American capital.
American elegance in your decor
Hanging an art print of Washington is inviting serenity and majesty into your home, reflecting a city that is both historic and modern. The art prints of Washington evoke reflections on the Potomac, monumental perspectives of the Mall, sunlit domes, and urban scenes in chiaroscuro.
These works integrate perfectly into classic, modern, or minimalist decor, bringing balance, calm, and sophistication.
A Sheeler urban view, a symbolic composition by Marin, or a silent street scene by Hopper will infuse your walls with the quiet strength and dignity of the American capital.
The painting of Washington celebrates light, structure, and the geometric beauty of a city conceived as a work of art.
Great painters of Washington and the East Coast
Charles Sheeler (1883–1965), a figure of American precisionism, depicted modern architectures of Washington and major American cities with a sleek and luminous style.
John Marin (1870–1953) made the capital vibrate with abstract and dynamic compositions where the city becomes rhythm and movement.
Edward Hopper (1882–1967) captured the solitude and beauty of urban spaces in silent, introspective lights.
George Bellows (1882–1925) brought raw energy to urban painting, oscillating between realism and expressionism.
Winslow Homer (1836–1910) and Childe Hassam (1859–1935) conveyed the light of the East Coast in works of great elegance.
Maurice Prendergast (1858–1924) added a decorative and colorful touch inspired by European impressionism.
These artists gave Washington a dimension that is both spiritual and aesthetic, between classic balance and American modernity.
