EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print captures the historic moment when General George Washington bids farewell to New York City after celebrating the British retreat in 1783. The image showcases a scene of jubilation and cheer as American soldiers row Washington across the bustling harbor, marking a significant event in American history. The vibrant colors bring life to this vintage illustration, transporting viewers back to the 18th century. The city's iconic skyline serves as a backdrop, reminding us that this pivotal moment took place in none other than New York City. As General Washington stands tall in his military attire, he symbolizes the strength and determination of an emerging nation. The rowboat glides through the calm waters of the sea port, surrounded by ships and sailors who played vital roles during the Revolutionary War. This artwork beautifully depicts not only an evacuation but also a celebration of victory for America's Continental Army. As we gaze upon this piece of art, we are reminded of our rich history and how far our great nation has come since those revolutionary times. It serves as a powerful reminder that freedom is hard-fought and should never be taken for granted
