Paintings of The American Revolution (Zoom), 6/2 @ 7 PM

We all know the story of the American Revolutionary War, but how much of our understanding is colored by the way the war was depicted by artists? Paintings of the American Revolution have been essential in the way that the war was understood, both at the time of the conflict and for generations after. 

This lecture by Mallory Mortillaro will explore well-known paintings such as Emanuel Leutze’s Washington Crossing the Delaware, John Trumbull’s Declaration of Independence, and Asher Durand’s The Capture of Major AndrĆ©.
