Product Details:

Rembrandt Peale's Washington Before Yorktown shows George Washington, full-length portrait, in full dress uniform on horseback preparing his troops for the final battle of the Revolutionary War in Yorktown, Virginia. The figure to Washington's immediate right is the Marquis de Lafayette, and the three officers barely visible behind him are Compte de Rochambeau, Henry Knox and Benjamin Lincoln. Alexander Hamilton is the rider on the right. The painting radiates a sense of leadership and determination as Washington contemplates the impending battle that would ultimately lead to victory and independence for the United States. Rembrandt Peale's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the scene, emphasizing the weight of the moment in American history. This iconic artwork not only pays tribute to Washington's leadership but also serves as a timeless reminder of the sacrifices and resolve that forged a new nation.
