Washington Gothic

Washington Gothic reimagines Grant Wood's American Gothic, the donkey and elephant standing in for the nation's two dominant political parties. The White House rises behind them, flag at full mast, framed by neat rows of red, white, and blue. The iconic details of the original composition are preserved — the pitchfork, the collar, the stern forward gaze — translating into a wry commentary on partisanship, tradition, and the institutions both figures represent.
