EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary figure of David Crockett, widely known as Davy Crockett and hailed as the "King of the Wild Frontier". A true American frontiersman, soldier, and politician, he proudly represented Tennessee in the United States House of Representatives. However, it was his heroic demise at the Battle of the Alamo that solidified his reputation as an iconic folk hero. Beneath his striking image lies a profound quotation penned by Crockett himself: "Always be sure you are right, then go ahead". This rule exemplifies his unwavering commitment to integrity and courageously standing up for what he believed in. The original engraving by Asher Brown Durand from a painting by Anthony Lewis de Rose has been skillfully brought to life through later colorization by Ken Welsh. The vibrant hues breathe new vitality into this timeless depiction of one of America's most celebrated historical figures. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of Davy Crockett's extraordinary achievements but also inspired by his indomitable spirit. His legacy continues to resonate with us today as a testament to bravery and determination in pursuing one's convictions.
