Product Details:

Beginning of the American Union: Washington Takes Command of the Continental Army at Cambridge, 1775 by N.C. Wyeth is a dramatic historical painting by N. C. Wyeth created around 1919. The work depicts George Washington assuming command of the Continental Army beneath the famous elm at Cambridge during the opening months of the American Revolution. Wyeth presents the moment not simply as a military appointment, but as the symbolic birth of a united American nation, with Washington raising his sword in salute before gathered soldiers and a newly emerging national identity. Commissioned for a school history textbook published by Ginn and Company, the painting helped shape generations of Americans’ visual understanding of the Revolutionary era through its heroic composition, rich color, and patriotic atmosphere.
