Product Details:
"The Capture of Major André" by Asher Brown Durand depicts a pivotal moment during the American Revolutionary War, specifically the capture of British Major John André, who was involved in the conspiracy with Benedict Arnold to turn over West Point to the British. Major John André is shown being apprehended by three American militiamen in civilian clothes - John Paulding, Isaac Van Wart, and David Williams. The painting not only documents a key event of the Revolutionary War but also symbolizes the vigilance and patriotism of ordinary citizens. The capture of André was crucial because it exposed Benedict Arnold's treachery and helped maintain American control over West Point, a vital strategic location.
