The Surrender of Santiago - A Symbolic Triumph
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, "The Surrender of Santiago, hoisting the United States Flag on the Governors Palace" captures a pivotal moment in history during the Spanish-American War. Created by John Charlton and now held in a private collection, this print showcases the dramatic scene that unfolded on July 17th, 1898. In this vibrant image, we witness General Shafter's triumphant American troops hoisting their flag atop the majestic Governors Palace in Santiago de Cuba. The streets are filled with soldiers dressed in their military attire as they celebrate their victory over Spanish forces led by General Toral. As sunlight bathes the scene with its warm glow, colorful flowers bloom in nearby gardens adding to the picturesque setting. The surrender ceremony is accompanied by a sense of solemnity and pride as officers and troopers stand tall under a rainbow-filled sky. This historic event marked not only an end to hostilities but also symbolized America's emergence as a global power. With stars and stripes fluttering proudly against limewashed buildings and amidst cheering crowds, it was clear that freedom had prevailed. Charlton's masterful use of tinted engravings brings depth and life to every detail captured within this lithograph. It serves as both an artistic representation of historical events and a reminder of bravery exhibited by those who fought for liberty during this critical period. Courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this print continues to inspire awe while
