EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The image, attributed to Philip Dawe and Jacob Vredenburgh, showcases the bustling atmosphere of a barbershop in colonial New York during the American Revolutionary War. In this scene, we see Captain John Crozer sitting comfortably on a barber's chair while being attended by his loyal barber. The room is filled with men from all walks of life - patriots and supporters of the Sons of Liberty - engaging in lively conversations about their shared cause for independence from Britain. The central figure depicted here is none other than William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham. Known as "The Great Commoner". Pitt was an influential British statesman who sympathized with the American colonists' grievances against British rule. His presence symbolizes both hope and defiance among those fighting for freedom. This artwork serves as a reminder of the bravery and determination exhibited by early Americans during their struggle for independence. It captures not only historical figures but also ordinary citizens united under one common goal: liberty. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on America's journey towards nationhood and appreciate the sacrifices made by our forefathers.
