EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph print titled "Washington: Monongahela" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts a young George Washington, mounted on his horse, leading the charge during the Battle of the Monongahela on July 9,1755. This battle took place after General Braddock's army was ambushed by French forces from Fort Duquesne during the French and Indian War. In this artwork created by Junius Brutus Stearns and later reproduced as a lithograph in 1854, we witness Washington's bravery and leadership as he commands his troops on the battlefield. Dressed in his military uniform, Washington embodies determination and courage while riding gallantly through the chaos of war. This print captures an essential chapter in American colonial history when Washington emerged as a prominent figure. It serves as a reminder of his pivotal role not only in this particular conflict but also throughout America's founding years. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, it is impossible not to be transported back to that fateful day along the Monongahela River. We can almost hear the sounds of gunfire and feel the tension that hung heavy in the air. This artwork allows us to connect with our nation's past and appreciate how one man played such an instrumental part in shaping its future – George Washington, our first president and one of our greatest Founding Fathers.
