"George Washington (Lansdowne portrait)" is a famous oil-on-canvas painting by American artist Gilbert Stuart, completed in 1796. It depicts George Washington, the first President of the United States. The portrait is full-length and shows Washington standing in a stately pose in a presidential setting. He is depicted in his last year as President, with his right arm extended, holding a ceremonial sword, and his left arm resting on a table beside books and a quill. The background includes two columns and a draped curtain, symbolizing the neoclassical architectural elements of the period.

This portrait is one of the most iconic and widely reproduced images of Washington. It was commissioned by Senator William Bingham of Pennsylvania as a gift to the British Prime Minister, the Marquess of Lansdowne, and hence it is commonly referred to as the "Lansdowne portrait." The painting has significant historical importance as it has been used as the basis for many reproductions and engravings that circulated during Washington's lifetime and beyond, contributing to his visual legacy.

The "Lansdowne portrait" is renowned for its artistic quality and for Stuart's ability to capture the dignity and gravitas of the President. It is also notable for the symbolic elements that Stuart included, such as the rainbow in the background, which represents hope and the potential of the new nation. The books on the table carry titles related to the laws and governance of the United States, reflecting Washington's role in the founding of the country.

Today, the "Lansdowne portrait" is held in several prominent collections, with the primary version residing in the National Portrait Gallery, part of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. It has been the subject of extensive conservation efforts to preserve it for future generations. The painting is a key piece of American art history and continues to be studied and admired for its representation of George Washington and its embodiment of the values and aspirations of the early United States.
