Lafayette Wounded at Brandywine by Charles Henry Jeans depicts a key moment during the Battle of Brandywine, which took place on September 11, 1777, during the American Revolutionary War. The painting features Marquis de Lafayette, wounded in the leg, being aided by a fellow soldier while the battle rages around them. The Battle of Brandywine was one of the largest battles of the American Revolution. It was a pivotal moment as General George Washington's Continental Army attempted to defend Philadelphia from British forces led by General Sir William Howe. The American forces were outflanked, and despite a fierce fight, they were forced to retreat. This defeat allowed the British to capture Philadelphia shortly thereafter.
