EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph captures a pivotal moment in American history - the ringing of the State House Bell, now famously known as the Liberty Bell, on July 4th, 1776. The image depicts a jubilant crowd gathered outside Independence Hall in Philadelphia, eagerly awaiting the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence. The bell's resounding tolls serve as a tocsin, symbolizing freedom and unity for all inhabitants of this newly formed nation. As stated in Leviticus XXV:10, "Proclaim liberty throughout all the land". This powerful message reverberates through time and space. The 2,000-pound copper-and-tin bell hangs high atop the tower while citizens pull on ropes with unwavering determination. Their collective efforts unleash an echoing chime that pierces through the air and stirs patriotic fervor within every heart present. Amidst cheers and applause from this diverse gathering of Americans, both young and old alike celebrate their newfound independence. The scene is filled with anticipation and hope for what lies ahead for this fledgling republic. As we gaze upon this print over a century later during America's centennial commemoration in 1876, it serves as a reminder of our shared heritage and enduring spirit. It encapsulates not only one monumental event but also represents countless sacrifices made by those who fought for liberty during the Revolutionary War. This historic artwork preserved at Metropolitan Museum of Art stands as an iconic testament to America's journey towards freedom - a visual representation etched into our collective memory forevermore.
