EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Plan of West Point, the key fort that Benedict Arnold plotted to deliver to the British" takes us back to a pivotal moment in American history during the War of Independence. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 18th century, this print offers a detailed and strategic depiction of West Point Fort. The image showcases the significance of this fortress as it was targeted by Benedict Arnold, a once-respected general in the Continental Army turned traitor. Arnold's infamous plot involved delivering West Point into British hands, but his treachery was foiled when Major John Andre was caught carrying this very plan given to him by Arnold. Today, West Point is renowned as a prestigious military academy where future leaders are trained and molded. However, this lithograph reminds us of its tumultuous past and serves as a testament to the resilience and determination displayed by those who fought for America's independence. With intricate cartography and historical context woven together on paper, this print not only captures our attention but also invites us to reflect on the sacrifices made during one of America's most challenging periods. It stands as both an educational tool for understanding our nation's past and a reminder that even in times of betrayal, loyalty can prevail.
