EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage reproduction print titled "Washington Before Yorktown" artist Rembrandt Peale captures a pivotal moment in American history. The portrait depicts General George Washington, resplendent in his full dress uniform, mounted on horseback as he prepares his troops for the final battle of the Revolutionary War in Yorktown, Virginia. Standing to Washington's immediate right is the esteemed Marquis de Lafayette, a key figure in the fight for independence. Behind Lafayette stand three officers - Compte de Rochambeau, Henry Knox, and Benjamin Lincoln - their presence barely visible but significant nonetheless. The composition exudes a sense of anticipation and determination as Washington rallies his men for what would become one of the most decisive battles of the war. His leadership and strategic prowess are palpable even in this static portrayal. Notably present among these historical figures is Alexander Hamilton, depicted riding on the right side of Washington. This inclusion serves as a reminder of Hamilton's influential role during this period. Peale's artistic style adds an air of elegance to this historically significant scene. The retro-styled print transports viewers back to 1778 when America was still fighting for its freedom from British rule. This artwork from Universal Images Group (UIG) offers us a glimpse into our nation's past and reminds us of the sacrifices made by these brave individuals who fought tirelessly for liberty and independence.
