This print captures a pivotal moment in American history - the Constitutional Convention of 1787. The iconic figure of George Washington presides over this historic event, held at Independence Hall in Philadelphia.

The artist Junius Brutus Stearns has masterfully recreated this significant gathering, showcasing the solemnity and gravity that permeated every discussion and decision made during those crucial months. The engraving beautifully highlights the intricate details of each delegate's attire, emphasizing their dedication to this monumental task. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the immense patriotism that fueled these men as they drafted the United States Constitution. Their unwavering commitment to establishing a government based on democratic principles is evident in every stroke captured by Stearns' brush. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's enduring values and traditions. It invites us to reflect on the wisdom and foresight exhibited by these visionary leaders who laid down the foundations for our democracy more than two centuries ago. Displaying this piece proudly reminds us not only of our rich history but also inspires us to uphold and protect the ideals set forth by our founding fathers.
