Mary Morris, 1872 - A Portrait of an American Revolutionary War Patriot
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving from John Gilmary Shea's "A Child's History of the United States" transports us back to the 18th century, specifically to a time when America was fighting for its independence. The print depicts Mary Morris, a remarkable woman who played a significant role in funding the American Revolutionary War alongside her husband Robert. With her dignified gaze and resolute expression, Mary Morris personifies the spirit of patriotism and resilience that characterized this pivotal period in American history. As we admire this portrait, we are reminded of the countless women who contributed their resources and support behind the scenes during times of war. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this image, emphasizing both the historical significance and timeless nature of Mary Morris' contributions. Her presence serves as a symbol not only for women's involvement in shaping our nation but also for their often overlooked roles in revolutions throughout history. This engraving is more than just a visual representation; it encapsulates an era defined by rebellion against oppression and unwavering determination. It invites us to reflect on how individuals like Mary Morris helped shape our country into what it is today – united under one flag, celebrating freedom won through sacrifice. As we study this print from Heritage Images with admiration, let us honor all those who fought bravely for liberty during America's struggle for independence.
