Product Details:

The Meeting of General Washington and Rochambeau by Edward Lamson Henry depicts the historic moment when General George Washington met with French General Jean-Baptiste Donatien de Vimeur, Comte de Rochambeau, during the American Revolutionary War. Their alliance was crucial to securing French military support, which ultimately helped win the war — most notably at the Siege of Yorktown. Henry, known for his nostalgic and detailed renderings of early American history, captures the scene with a sense of ceremony and diplomatic warmth. Washington is typically shown greeting Rochambeau with mutual respect, surrounded by aides or troops, emphasizing the cooperation between the Continental Army and French forces. Rather than a dramatic battlefield moment, the painting focuses on diplomacy, unity, and the quiet turning point that such meetings represented in the war effort.
