EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Major General Thomas Sumter, a prominent figure in American history. Engraved by George Parker after an original drawing by William G. Armstrong, this artwork captures the essence of Sumter's distinguished character and achievements. Sumter, known as the "Carolina Gamecock" was not only an officer in the American Revolutionary War but also served as a minister to Brazil and a statesman. His resolute dedication to independence and his significant contributions during the revolution earned him great respect among his peers. In this half-length portrait, we see Sumter adorned in his military uniform, exuding strength and determination. The intricate details of his epaulettes symbolize his rank and authority. With a gaze that reflects wisdom acquired through years of service, he embodies the spirit of revolution and freedom. The artist Charles Willson Peale masterfully captures Sumter's likeness with remarkable precision. This image serves as a testament to both Sumter's personal courage on the battlefield and his political prowess off it. As a congressman and senator, he continued to champion liberty long after America gained its independence. This extraordinary piece from The Stapleton Collection is now part of a private collection but remains accessible for all to admire its historical significance. It stands as an enduring tribute to Major General Thomas Sumter's indelible mark on American history during the tumultuous 18th century.
