EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures General Francis Marion, a prominent military officer during the American Revolutionary War. The image showcases Marion in his distinctive coat with a high collar and an intriguing waistcoat, dating back to around 1770. Despite being taken in 1937, this photograph provides us with a glimpse into the fashion of the late 18th century. Marion is renowned for his expertise in guerrilla warfare and played a significant role in the Continental Army as well as the South Carolina militia. His strategic tactics were instrumental in securing victories for the American forces during their fight for independence from British rule. The print is sourced from "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" by Elisabeth McClellan, published by Tudor Publishing Company in New York. It serves as a visual representation of Marion's contribution to history and offers insight into both military attire and societal norms of that era. In this portrait, Marion gazes away from the camera, exuding an air of determination and resilience. His hat adds to his authoritative presence while his profile highlights his strong features. This image allows us to connect with one of America's patriots who fought valiantly for freedom during a pivotal period in our nation's history.
