"250 Years of Freedom" – Limited Edition George Washington Musket Ball Framed Art
Some pieces of art you admire. This one commands the room.
BenShot's Limited Edition George Washington Framed Art is unlike anything hanging on your wall right now. A crisp, high-quality 8" x 10" portrait of General Washington, musket aimed directly at you, with a real musket ball breaking through the acrylic front of the frame. It's part fine art, part conversation piece, and 100% American-made.
This is not a mass-produced poster. This is not a decoration. This is a collector's piece, one of only 250 ever made, handcrafted in the United States of America by the same team behind BenShot's legendary bulletproof glassware, with the same obsessive attention to detail you've come to expect. Each print is individually made, meaning no two are exactly alike. Yours will carry a number. When 250 are gone, this chapter of American history closes forever.
Mounted on the mat below the portrait is an engraved brass plaque reading "250 Years of Freedom, 1776-2026," a quiet nod to America's Semiquincentennial and the 250 years of liberty Washington helped secure. It's a detail that turns this piece from artwork into a milestone, marking a quarter-millennium of the nation he founded.
The frame is as distinguished as the man it honors. Crafted from real North American hardwood in Michigan, the ornate gold frame features an intricately detailed leaf design with a softly sloped profile, a fitting home for a portrait of the first Commander-in-Chief. Hang it in your office, your study, your bar, or your range. Wherever it goes, it will be the first thing people notice and the last thing they forget.
Hanging hardware is included. All you have to do is find a wall worthy of it.
