W ASIIlNGTON. D.C. SPONSORED BY THE WASHINGTON COLUMBUS CELEBRATION ASSOCIATION IN COORDINATION WITH THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE CELEBRATING CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL The Site In the years following the great quadricentennial (400th anniversary) celebration in 1892 of the achievements and discoveries of Christopher Cohnnbus, an effort was launched by the Knights of ~ Columbus to establish a monument to the ~ great discoverer. The U. S. Congress passed a law which mandated a Colwnbus Memorial in the nation's capital and appropriated $100,000 to cover the ~· ~, ·~-~=:;-;~~ construction costs. A commission was T" established composed of the secretaries of State and War, the chairmen of the House and Senate Committees on the Library of Congress, and the Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus. With the newly completed Union Railroad Station in 1907, plans focused toward locating the memorial on the plaz.a in front of this great edifice. After a series of competitions, sculptor Lorado Z. Taft of Chicago was awarded the contract. His plan envisioned what you see this day, a monument constructed of Georgia marble; a semi-circular fountain sixty-six feet broad and forty-four feet deep and in the center, a pylon crowned with a globe supported by four eagles oonnected by garland. A fifteen foot statue of Columbus, facing the U. S. Capitol and wrapped in!\ medieval mantle, stands in front of the pylon in the bow of a ship with its pn,, extending into the upper basin of the fountain terminating with a winged figurehead representing democracy.

    tJ .. " fP " ,, r' 'I. '' '' '/ t''· ., Our Cover: Columbus's Landing, October 12, 1492 On June I 0, 1800, Philadelphia ceased to be the seat of government, a role it had occupied since Congress moved there from New York in 1790, and on November I 7, 1800 Congress opened its first session in its new Capitol in the special federal district on the Potomac The sculptural Columbus of our national memorial gazes over the heads of today's audience directly on that Capitol. Our cover fittingly celebrates this year's bicentennial of the US Capitol by reproducing one of the most prominent Columbus-related works of art in that building rich in a11istic tributes to Columbus, John Vanderlyn's "Landing of Columbus at the Island ofGuanahani, West Indies, October 12, 1492." This magnificent painting, 12 feet high and 18 feet wide, is in the Rotunda. just inside the famous Columbus Doors of the main entrance. On pages 4 and 5 of this booklet we reproduce a more complete description of the cover painting, taken from the book Columbus in the Capitol, Commemorative Quincentenary Edition, Government Printing Office, I 992, which also describes and illustrates many other works of art related to Columbus that can be found in the Capitol and the Library of Congress . To the left in the picture (see our back cover) can be seen the captains of the Nina and the Pinta, the brothers Martin Alonzo and Vincente Yanez Pinzon, each holding the banner of Ferdinand and Isabella (Ysabela), now often CHRISTOPHER._,COL"tJMBUS called the Expeditionary Banner.

  • Spain in Washington a Guide
    SPAIN IN WASHINGTON: A GUIDE 'Two Women at a Window' by Murillo, National Gallery of Art 4 5 3 1 2 13 6-10 11 15 12 EMBAJADA DE ESPAÑA WASHINGTON, D.C. GUIA-WASHINGTON - 18,5 de ancho x 26 cm de largo.indd 1 17/2/20 18:10 GUIA-WASHINGTON - 18,5 de ancho x 26 cm de largo.indd 2 17/2/20 18:10 Welcome to Washington, D.C.! Spain and the United States share a long, rich, and fruitful history that has expanded into modern times. This relationship can be seen throughout the country in everything from state flags and Spanish words to architecture and symbols originating from Spain. Washington, D.C., as the capital of the United States, offers a very complete view of this relationship. Washington is home to statues of Bernardo de Gálvez, the Spanish hero of the American Revolution and honorary U.S. citizen, masterpieces from Spanish greats, like Velázquez, El Greco, Picasso, and Miró, multiple honorary tributes to Christopher Columbus, and a slew of artistic pieces that pay homage to Spain and its explorers and missionaries in the U.S. Capitol Building. The variety and extensive nature of Spain’s presence in Washington alone is a testament to the importance of the relationship our countries share, one that we continuously work to expand and improve across sectors. This guide will teach you more about this relationship. I invite you to use it to get a taste of Spain in Washington and to give your time in D.C., whether as a tourist or a local, a Spanish touch.
