Version I:  As shown.  Collections:  Library of Congress, New York Public Library; Anne S. K. Brown Military Collection, Brown University.

Note: Compare Boglewood 2814, also published by Esnauts et Rapilly with substantially the same text and a generally similar "Alexander Campbell" pose.  Yet the two images, by different artists, offer significantly different likenesses of Washington.  Perhaps Le Beau's likeness was also influenced by the Peale or Trumbull images.
