Collection: Washington DC
Symbolic and globally recognised, Washington, D.C. was established in 1790 as the capital of the United States, designed by Pierre L’Enfant as a federal district rather than a state. Covering ~177 km² along the Potomac River, it is defined by monumental architecture and political power. Landmarks such as White House, U.S. Capitol, Lincoln Memorial, and Washington Monument create strong axial compositions, while its nation’s capital and political heart identity makes it unmatched. Though not a presidential birthplace, it is central to every presidency—perfect for iconic, authoritative travel posters.
