EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Washington at Monmouth" captures a significant moment in American history. Created by Albert Bobbett in 1877, it depicts General George Washington during the Battle of Monmouth on June 28,1778. The battle took place in Monmouth County, New Jersey, during the American Revolutionary War. In this engraving from Benson J. Lossing's book "Our Country: a Household History for All Readers" we see General Washington gesturing with determination as he leads his troops into battle. Mounted on his horse, he charges forward fearlessly amidst the chaos of war. The Battle of Monmouth was an important turning point in the war as both sides claimed victory but resulted in no clear winner tactically. Nevertheless, it showcased Washington's leadership skills and strategic prowess. Albert Bobbett skillfully captures the intensity and historic significance of this moment through his monochrome depiction. The attention to detail is evident as every line and shadow brings life to this scene from over a century ago. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice that shaped our nation's history. It serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination displayed by those who fought for America's independence. This print is not only a testament to General Washington's legacy but also an invaluable piece of historical documentation that allows us to connect with our past and appreciate the struggles endured for our freedom.
