EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration by Sir John Gilbert, an English artist from the 19th century. The artwork features a portrait of Paul Revere, the renowned messenger in the battles of Lexington and Concord during the American Revolution. Standing proudly next to his horse, Paul Revere is depicted with great detail and emotion, capturing his bravery and determination. The illustration was created for Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's famous poem "Paul Revere's Ride" which recounts the heroic midnight ride undertaken by Revere to warn fellow patriots about British troops' impending arrival. Longfellow, an esteemed American poet, wrote this iconic piece as part of his Poetical Works collection. With its vibrant colors and intricate shading techniques, Gilbert's artwork brings both history and literature to life on paper. This particular print is taken from a Complete Copyright Edition published in London in 1879. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of the courage displayed by individuals like Paul Revere during pivotal moments in history. It serves as a powerful testament to America's fight for independence and honors those who played significant roles in shaping our nation's destiny.
