EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases General Philemon Dickinson, a prominent figure in American history during the late 18th century. The image, taken around 1780 but printed in 1937, portrays General Dickinson wearing a high cut coat that was fashionable during his time. His attire reflects the style of clothing worn by men of influence and authority. Philemon Dickinson (1739-1809) was not only an accomplished lawyer and politician but also served as a brigadier general for the New Jersey militia during the American Revolutionary War. This photograph captures him in his military uniform, complete with epaulettes on his shoulders symbolizing his rank. The photo is part of Elisabeth McClellan's book "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" published by Tudor Publishing Company in New York in 1937. McClellan's work delves into the evolution of fashion throughout American history, providing valuable insights into how clothing reflected societal norms and cultural changes. In this particular image, we see General Philemon Dickinson standing tall with confidence and pride. His hair neatly tied back into a pigtail adds to his distinguished appearance. The hat he wears further emphasizes his status as an officer. This print transports us back to a crucial period when America fought for its independence from British rule. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and determination displayed by individuals like General Philemon Dickinson who played significant roles in shaping our nation's history.
