The United States Capitol Historical Society (USCHS) is pleased to announce a limited edition of its first ever

commission of an artistic interpretation of President-elect Barack Obama giving his inaugural speech on the

West Front of the United States Capitol.  The artist, Jody Bergstresser of Washington, D.C., is known for her

vibrant and stylized gouache paintings.  Gouache is an opaque medium, using brushes to create a flat, smooth,

luminous surface and is considered a form of watercolor.

Each print will be signed, numbered and titled

"Inauguration of Barack Obama, January 20, 2009" by artist, Jody Bergstresser.
