EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the historic American flag, known as the Star-Spangled Banner, created by Mary Young Pickersgill in 1812. Measuring an impressive 30 feet by 42 feet, this colossal banner was hoisted over Fort McHenry during the pivotal Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812. The flag became a symbol of hope and resilience as it flew triumphantly above the fort at dawn, signaling the successful repulsion of the British naval attack. Mary Pickersgill, a skilled flag maker from Baltimore, Maryland, was commissioned by Mary Pickersgill's husband, Francis Scott Key, to create the flag. Key was inspired by the sight of the flag still flying after the battle and was moved to write the lyrics to what would later become the United States National Anthem. The Star-Spangled Banner is a testament to the courage and determination of the American people during a critical moment in their nation's history. The flag's intricate design features 15 stars, representing the original 13 colonies and two added states, and 14 stripes, symbolizing the unity of the states under one banner. This photograph, taken at the Flag House in Baltimore, Maryland, offers a glimpse into the rich history of American patriotism and the enduring legacy of Mary Pickersgill's Star-Spangled Banner. The flag remains an inspiring symbol of national pride and unity for generations to come.
