EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print showcases a rare and intriguing glimpse into the creation of the Declaration of Independence through the Independence Draft, also known as Jefferson's Rough Draft. The document, dated July 1776, is displayed with corrections and annotations made by two of its most influential signatories, Benjamin Franklin and John Adams. The Declaration of Independence, adopted on July 4, 1776, but signed on August 2, 1776, is one of the most significant documents in American history. Thomas Jefferson, a skilled writer and a member of the Continental Congress, was tasked with drafting the document. However, it was not until the draft was presented to the Congress that extensive revisions and edits were made. Franklin and Adams, both members of the Congress and influential figures in the American Revolution, made corrections and suggestions to strengthen the language and tone of the document. This print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a unique and fascinating look at the collaborative process that shaped the final version of the Declaration of Independence. The corrections and annotations made by Franklin and Adams are evident in this print, with their handwriting adding a personal touch to the historic document. The corrections range from grammatical changes to more substantive edits, reflecting the meticulous attention to detail and the importance placed on the document's language. This print is not only a testament to the collaborative nature of the Declaration of Independence but also a reminder of the crucial role played by Franklin and Adams in shaping the course of American history. The corrections and annotations serve as a reminder of the ongoing process of refining and perfecting the language and ideas that would come to define the new nation.
