EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the raising of the British flag at Fort Duquesne by Colonel George Washington in November 1758. The wood engraving, created in the late 19th century, beautifully depicts this pivotal event during the French and Indian War. Colonel George Washington, a young and ambitious leader from Virginia, stands tall as he plants the British flag on the grounds of Fort Duquesne. As a militiaman representing his colony, Washington's capture of this strategic fort would later be rebuilt as Fort Pitt (now known as Pittsburgh). This act symbolizes not only his bravery but also signifies English dominance over this crucial territory. The image showcases Washington surrounded by his fellow colonists turned troops, highlighting their unity and determination to defend their North American land against French forces. It is fascinating to see how these men would later become some of America's founding fathers. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of President George Washington's early military career and sets the stage for his future role as one of our nation's most influential leaders. This print allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and its significance within American history.
