Product Details:

The First Recruits, December 1775 by Charles Waterhouse depicts an important moment in the formation of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. The title evokes the early recruitment of men who answered the call to fight for American independence, when the colonies were transforming their local militias into a more organized fighting force. The scene shows Captain Samuel Nicholas and Lieutenant Matthew Parke overseeing the gathering of prospective recruits along the Philadelphia waterfront, near the legendary Tun Tavern. These men were among the first volunteers of the Continental Marines, established by the Continental Congress on November 10, 1775, and the forerunners of today's U.S. Marine Corps. Waterhouse brings this formative moment to life with carefully researched military uniforms, period details, and the atmosphere of colonial Philadelphia.
