Product Details:

George Washington Entering New York in 1783 by Felix Octavius Carr Darley depicts a historic moment when General George Washington made his triumphant entry into New York City on November 25, 1783, following the evacuation of British forces, marking the end of the Revolutionary War in America. The artwork portrays George Washington on horseback, leading a procession into New York City. Washington is depicted as a dignified, commanding figure, with his posture straight and his gaze forward, symbolizing leadership and victory. Evacuation Day was significant not only for marking the departure of British troops from New York, which had been under their control for seven years, but also symbolized the broader victory of the American forces in securing independence. Washington's entry was both a military parade and a symbol of national unity and pride.
