EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, created by American artist Howard Pyle in 1886, depicts a significant moment in history during the early stages of the American Revolution. The scene portrays Paul Revere's heroic journey on horseback from Boston to Durham, New Hampshire on December 13th, 1774. In this pivotal encounter, Revere urgently warns Major John Sullivan about British plans to occupy Portsmouth's fort and harbor. The image showcases the determination and bravery of both men as they stand near a wooden fence amidst a snowy winter landscape. Paul Revere is depicted wearing his iconic tricorn hat, symbolizing his role as a patriot and messenger for liberty. His blacksmith background is hinted at through his rugged appearance and strong physique. Major John Sullivan listens intently to Revere's warning, fully aware of the gravity of the situation. Their meeting signifies the unity among colonists against British oppression and their commitment to defending their rights. Pyle masterfully captures this historic event with intricate details that transport us back to that critical period in North American history. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's revolutionary roots and honors those who risked everything for freedom during the American Revolution.
