Product Details:

The painting Congress Voting Independence by Robert Edge Pine captures a pivotal moment in American history when the second Continental Congress formally voted for independence from British rule on July 2, 1776. In this iconic scene, the Founding Fathers and delegates gather within the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation and resolve as John Adams presents the motion for independence while Thomas Jefferson, the primary author of the Declaration of Independence, looks on. The painting conveys a sense of unity and purpose as the delegates from the thirteen colonies take this monumental step towards establishing the United States of America, setting the stage for the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, which would become a symbol of freedom and self-determination.
