Foster Figure 1.1 (above). Portrait of George Washington. (George Washington, the First Good President, 1846. Gilbert Charles Stuart. Oil on canvas, 1797.)F ALL THE FOUNDERS, George Washington (Figure 1.1) is at once the most familiar and the most mythologized. As the unwavering general of the colonial army and the first president of the Republic, he cuts a commanding figure in American memory. When we see Washington in our mind's eye, we recall the iconography that depicts him as a gentleman, a... hero, a paragon of personal and civic virtue; we see the very picture of American manhood at its best. The persistence of such toogood-to-be-true images says something about the ongoing project of national mythmaking and a common belief in the idea of an essential national character.Take Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze's painting Washington Crossing the Delaware (1851), for example. Washington stands tall and firm near the prow of a crowded boat in rough waters; only the tousled American flag behind him stands taller than he in the fierce wind.
