EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Taken in 1890, this image showcases the historic event that took place at Pennsylvania State House, now known as Independence Hall, in Philadelphia. The creator of this photograph remains unknown. The photo depicts a group of men gathered indoors, their arms raised with exhilaration and pride as they declare themselves thirteen independent sovereign states. The American flag proudly hangs behind them, symbolizing their unity and determination to break free from British colonial rule. The scene is filled with energy and excitement as these brave individuals make a bold statement against imperialism. Their hand gestures convey cooperation and alliance among the colonies, while also representing the spirit of freedom that would shape America's future. This engraving from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" by Edmund Ollier transports us back to a crucial period in American history.
