Washington Taking Leave of His Old Comrades, 1783 - A Historic Farewell
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, we witness a poignant moment in American history as General George Washington bids farewell to his loyal comrades at Fraunces Tavern in New York on December 4th, 1783. The image captures the essence of victory and independence achieved by the United States through the Treaty of Paris. As Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army, Washington's retirement marked a significant turning point for both himself and the nation he helped forge. With gratitude and respect, his fellow officers gather around him for one last handshake before parting ways. The engraving beautifully portrays the solemnity of this occasion; it showcases an array of emotions ranging from pride to nostalgia. The buildings surrounding them symbolize not only their physical location but also represent the birthplace of a new country that emerged from rebellion against British rule. This image serves as a powerful reminder of sacrifice, unity, and resilience during America's Revolutionary War (1775-1783). It encapsulates the spirit and determination that led to victory while honoring those who fought alongside Washington. Preserved through time by Edmund Ollier's meticulous work in Cassells History of the United States (c1880), this print allows us to reflect upon our nation's past struggles and triumphs. It stands as a testament to George Washington's leadership and enduring legacy within American history.
