EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating oil painting "Washington's Rebuke of Lee" by Clyde Osmer Deland depicts a pivotal moment in American history during the War of Independence. The equestrian portrait showcases Major General George Washington, the first President of the United States, confronting Charles Lee, a fellow general who had submitted a plan to defeat the Americans but later retreated at the Battle of Monmouth in 1778. In this powerful scene, Washington has arrived on horseback to reprimand Lee for his actions on the battlefield. The tension between them is palpable as they engage in a heated confrontation amidst the backdrop of North America's vast wilderness. The painting captures not only their intense exchange but also highlights their horses, symbolizing strength and power. This artwork serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by early American soldiers and leaders during their fight for independence. It portrays both Washington's unwavering commitment to victory and his willingness to hold those under his command accountable for their actions. Displayed at Philadelphia History Museum at Atwater Kent and part of Historical Society of Pennsylvania Collection, this print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Deland's skillful portrayal of this significant historical event. It invites viewers to reflect upon the sacrifices made by these brave individuals who shaped America into what it is today.
