EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the historic moment of the surrender of British forces at Yorktown on October 19, 1781, marking a turning point in the American Revolution. The image depicts Major General Charles O'Hara, standing in for the absent General Lord Cornwallis, relinquishing his sword to the Comte de Rochambeau, representing the French forces allied with the American rebels. To the left, an attentive General George Washington observes the scene, his expression a blend of relief and determination. The surrender at Yorktown effectively ended major military operations in the southern theater of the war, paving the way for the eventual American victory. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms and the atmospheric landscape add depth to this significant historical record. Dated around 1870, this print is a testament to the enduring legacy of the pivotal Battle of Yorktown and the indomitable spirit of those who fought for American independence.
