Earthenware dinner plate printed in pink with The President’s House, Washington, from the American Scenery Series. The border, found on all the views in this series, consists of six clusters of large roses descending from the inner half of the rim down the cavetto onto the well of the plate to gently encircle the circular view; a scalloped, stippled field of scattered flowers, a beaded band and a white gadroon rim complete the border.
