EDITORS COMMENTS
by Newell Convers Wyeth captures a pivotal moment in American history. This powerful print depicts the garrison at San Antonio, Texas, besieged by Mexican troops during the Texas Revolution. For twelve days, Texian troops and native Tejanos valiantly defended their position against overwhelming odds. In this haunting image, we witness the sheer determination of these brave defenders as they confront their impending fate. The exhaustion is evident on their faces as they stand firm behind the adobe walls of the Alamo fortress. Each soldier clutches his rifle tightly, ready to fight until the bitter end. Among them stands Davy Crockett, an iconic figure who met his tragic demise defending this very spot. As smoke billows from cannon bombardments and clashes echo throughout the air, these courageous men refuse to surrender. The flag of the Republic of Texas proudly waves above them—a symbol of their unwavering spirit and defiance against oppression. It serves as a reminder that even in defeat, their sacrifice would inspire future generations in their quest for independence. This print transports us back to a time when ordinary individuals became heroes through extraordinary acts of bravery. It immortalizes those who fought valiantly for freedom and pays homage to all those lost during this historic battle. Through "The Last Stand at the Alamo". Wyeth's artistry allows us to bear witness to a defining moment in American history—one that
