EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "FOREIGN AFFAIRS, 1783" takes us back to a significant period in American history. It showcases the United States Department of Foreign Affairs, which later became the esteemed Department of State. The department was housed in a charming brick house located at 13 South Sixth Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from October 1781 to June 1783. The watercolor image, created by D. J. Kennedy and based on a sketch from that era, beautifully captures the late 18th-century architecture and ambiance of this historic building. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every stroke brings life to the scene. With its white picket fence surrounding the property and lush greenery adorning its exterior, this house exudes an air of elegance and importance. This visual representation transports us back to a time when diplomacy played a crucial role in shaping America's relationships with foreign nations. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the pivotal moments that took place within these walls during those years - negotiations for peace treaties following the American Revolutionary War and discussions about establishing diplomatic ties with other countries. This print serves as both a reminder of our nation's rich history and an homage to those who laid the foundation for America's future diplomatic endeavors.
