EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the distinguished likeness of Major-General Alexander Macomb (1782-1841), an esteemed American military commander of the early 19th century. Macomb's military career began during the American Revolution, where he served with distinction under General Anthony Wayne. After the war, he continued to serve in the United States Army, rising through the ranks to become a major general in 1821. Macomb is best known for his role in the Black Hawk War (1832), where he led the forces that successfully put down the last significant Native American uprising east of the Mississippi River. His strategic planning and leadership during the Siege of Fortress Mackinac were instrumental in securing a decisive victory for the United States. The print depicts Macomb in full military regalia, complete with a red coat, white waistcoat, and gold braid. His stern expression and piercing gaze convey a sense of determination and resolve, reflecting the unwavering commitment to duty that defined his military career. Macomb's legacy as a respected and effective military leader endures to this day, and this print serves as a testament to his important place in American military history.
