US Capitol and Washington DC park. 19th-century illustration of the view up Capitol Hill from a park along one of the diagonal roads leading to the grounds of the US Capitol. Construction of the US Capitol (the site of the US government) started in 1793, with the first Congress in 1800. The first dome was added in the 1820s, and the building much expanded in the 1850s. The building and dome seen here dates from before the larger dome that was built from 1855. Artwork published in 1867. | |
