EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the fall of Fort Ticonderoga to the Americans in 1775. Depicting Ethan Allen and his courageous Green Mountain Boys, this hand-colored engraving beautifully portrays their daring capture of the fort from the British during the early stages of the Revolutionary War. The vintage aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia, transporting us back to colonial times when America was still fighting for its independence. The illustration showcases the traditional military attire worn by both sides, highlighting their commitment to their respective causes. Fort Ticonderoga's strategic location on Lake Champlain made it a highly sought-after stronghold during this period. With surprise on their side, Allen and his militia successfully overpowered British forces stationed at the fort, marking a pivotal moment in American history. This image serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's revolutionary spirit and determination to break free from British rule. It symbolizes not only Vermont's contribution but also represents an uprising that spread throughout North America. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of those who fought bravely for our freedom and laid down the foundations for what would become the United States of America.
