EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century captures a pivotal moment in American history - the Sons of Liberty pulling down the statue of George III in New York City after the reading of the Declaration of Independence. The image showcases a powerful act of rebellion and defiance against British rule during the American Revolution. The scene is set on a bustling street in Manhattan, where a group of determined men can be seen united in their patriotic cause. With sheer strength and unwavering determination, they are shown exerting all their might to bring down this symbol of royal authority. Their actions embody the spirit of independence and freedom that fueled the revolution. The statue itself represents King George III, who was viewed by many colonists as an oppressive ruler responsible for unjust policies imposed upon them. Its destruction serves as both a physical manifestation of resistance and an assertion that America will no longer bow to monarchy. This wood engraving not only commemorates this significant event but also evokes feelings of pride and admiration for those brave individuals who risked everything for liberty. It stands as a testament to the resilience and revolutionary spirit that shaped our nation's history.
