Product Description
Reproduced from an original watercolor by Williamsburg artist Marcia Long, this beautiful giclée print offers the perfect opportunity to bring your favorite memories of the Historic Area into your home.
Adjacent to Market Square, Chowning's Tavern is known for its hearty colonial fare and rollicking 18th-century-style entertainment. In the 18th century, Williamsburg's taverns provided comfortable lodgings for travelers as well as serving as places to gather for meals, conversation, and entertainment. Today, Colonial Williamsburg's historic dining taverns carry on these traditions by providing a relaxed and comfortable setting for diners to experience some of the flavor of the 18th century.
Beautifully matted, set under glass, and framed in gold, this image is part of series created by Long to capture the gracious landscape of Colonial Williamsburg's Historic Area.

Inspiration
Josiah Chowning opened his tavern in 1766 appealing to the "ordinary sort." Popular lore asserts that the modern sandwich has its origin in the 18th century and was named after John Montagu, the fourth earl of Sandwich. Today's Chowning's Tavern diners can partake in southern favorites like Brunswick stew and Virginia pulled pork sandwiches.
