EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "EVRV2A-00086" takes us back to a defining moment in American history - Benedict Arnold's daring escape on horseback after his treason was discovered in 1780. Hand-colored with meticulous detail, this woodcut of a 19th-century illustration brings the past to life, allowing us to witness the intensity and drama of that fateful event. In this vintage artwork, we see Benedict Arnold mounted on a majestic horse, galloping through the picturesque landscapes of New York. His face is filled with determination as he flees from his former comrades-in-arms. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Arnold's character - a complex figure who once fought valiantly for the Continental Army but succumbed to greed and betrayal. The image transports us back to a time when America was embroiled in war against British rule during the Revolutionary War. Benedict Arnold's treachery shook not only his fellow soldiers but also an entire nation fighting for its independence. This historic illustration serves as a reminder of how one man's actions can reverberate throughout history. As we gaze upon this artful depiction, it is impossible not to ponder what motivated Benedict Arnold and how close he came to changing the course of American history forever. This print stands as both an artistic masterpiece and an enduring symbol of resilience and patriotism amidst adversity.
