EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the image of Baron Friedrich Wilhelm Ludolf Gerhard Augustin von Steuben, a pivotal figure in the American Revolutionary War. Born in Magdeburg, Germany in 1730, von Steuben rose to prominence as a military commander in the Continental Army. He arrived in America in 1777, bringing with him invaluable European military expertise and discipline. Von Steuben's impact on the Continental Army was significant. He oversaw the training of the troops at Valley Forge, transforming them from a disorganized and demoralized force into a disciplined and effective fighting unit. His reforms included drilling the soldiers in the European style, standardizing uniforms, and improving camp organization. This print, which dates from the late 18th or early 19th century, depicts von Steuben on horseback, dressed in the uniform of a Continental Army major general. The baron's stern expression and commanding posture convey his unwavering determination and leadership abilities. The print also bears the inscription "Baron de Steuben," further emphasizing his status as a respected and influential figure in the Continental Army. Von Steuben's legacy extends beyond the battlefield. His military reforms helped establish the foundations of the United States military, and his influence can still be seen in modern military practices. This print serves as a testament to his enduring impact on American history and the crucial role he played in securing the nation's independence.
