EDITORS COMMENTS
The Retreat, published in 1775, captures a pivotal moment in the American War of Independence through an exquisite engraving. This photograph print showcases the work of the anonymous American School from the 18th century. The scene depicts chaos and destruction as an army of Wild Irish Asses retreats from Concord to Lexington. The brave American militia has successfully defeated their adversaries, leaving behind a trail of razing houses and burning fires. The image conveys the intensity and violence that characterized this historic conflict. Intriguingly, the engraving also portrays soldiers engaged in plundering, emphasizing both the triumph of victory for one side and the desperation faced by those retreating. It serves as a reminder that war often brings out not only heroism but also acts driven by survival instincts. This powerful artwork offers viewers a glimpse into a significant event during America's fight for independence. Its historical significance is further enhanced by its inclusion in private collections today. As we admire this piece, let us reflect on how it symbolizes resilience, sacrifice, and determination displayed by both sides during this tumultuous period in history.
