EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Unite or Die" snake cartoon, a powerful plea for American colonies to oppose British policies during the 1750s. Hand-colored and originating from an 18th-century illustration, this vintage artwork holds immense historical significance. The image depicts a coiled serpent divided into thirteen segments, each representing one of the colonies in North America. This political cartoon was created by Benjamin Franklin himself, who played a crucial role in shaping American history. The snake's message is clear: unity is essential for survival. As tensions grew between the colonies and Britain, Franklin used this symbol to rally colonists against oppressive policies and advocate for their rights. This image became an emblematic warning that division would lead to destruction. Through its intricate details and vibrant colors, this art piece transports us back to the revolutionary era of American history. It serves as a reminder of our nation's roots and the struggles faced by early colonists in their fight for independence. As we gaze upon this historic illustration, we are reminded of how far we have come as a united nation since those tumultuous times. It stands as a testament to the strength found in unity and serves as inspiration for generations to come.
