The wood engraving, created by an American artist in 1883, depicts the iconic moment when the British battle standard was captured by American forces.

The flag itself is an extraordinary piece of history, representing not only the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought for independence but also serving as a testament to the birth of a new nation.
