Washington Irving Poster

Washington Irving Poster

Washington Irving, born on April 3, 1783, in New York City, was an American author, essayist, and diplomat who became one of the first internationally acclaimed literary figures from the United States. Irving began his career as a law student but soon found his true passion lay in writing and storytelling. His first significant success came with the publication of "A History of New York" under the pseudonym Dietrich Knickerbocker in 1809. This satirical work, imbued with humor and a love for Dutch American culture, established Irving as a distinctive literary voice. In 1815, Irving traveled to England, where he continued to build his literary reputation. His most enduring work, "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent.," was published in installments between 1819 and 1820. This collection included the iconic short stories "Rip Van Winkle" and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," both of which contributed significantly to American folklore. The character of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman became cultural touchstones, solidifying Irving's status as a master storyteller. Washington Irving's literary success extended to his diplomatic career when he served as the U.S. Minister to Spain from 1842 to 1846. His time in Spain inspired works like "The Alhambra," a collection of essays and stories. Upon returning to the United States, Irving continued to write and remained an influential figure in American literature. He passed away on November 28, 1859, leaving a lasting legacy as one of the first American authors to gain international acclaim and contributing to the development of a distinct American literary identity.

I was so amazed at how this all turned out. Everyone who attended the funeral was in awe of how beautiful it was made. And I owe it all to Zazzle. I wouldn’t have done it better myself not to mention I wouldnt have time to do it. The great part of it all was they had templates that was catered to my needs and that I could use it in ways I wanted to use to resize it my way. It took some time but I was happy it turned out great. I did 100 photos, 89, 66 photos (I think) lol templates. The only suggestion is that the templates, before sending through would tell you of errors like; saying please revise or resize it again for any photos that is not perfectly well sitting or not show it’s cutting off some of them and where it tells you there’s duplicates. Staring, placing and resizing all 100 + pictures into the template can be tiresome and overwhelming and it makes my eyes blurred that I can’t tell if they’re cutting off or overlapping or duplicates. Overall I am very pleased and will be using Zazzle again should the need arises. Thank you Zazzle. Altogether I’ve done 3 collages 1 profile picture and couple pictures with 1 frame and yet this is my first time ordering as a 1 time customer. Prices were very reasonable and accommodating to my finances. .

Fun bright artwork that really captures the mood I’m going for! Pop art with cyberpunk energy. A little sweet but also spicy. This art is the perfect size and vibe for our art gallery wall. The printing looks great, high quality with vibrant colors! I went with the semi-gloss finish, which adds a little extra shine and thickness to the print making it excellent for high-traffic areas like the staircase wall.
