  • This reproduction print of "Washington Crossing the Delaware" is a stunning tribute to the iconic 1851 painting by the German-American artist Emanuel Leutze. This historical tableau captures a pivotal moment in the American Revolutionary War, when General George Washington led his troops across the icy Delaware River just after Christmas on December 26, 1776. The original painting, brimming with patriotism and dramatic flair, has become a symbol of the American spirit of perseverance and courage in the face of adversity. Looks great in a cozy reading space!

  • In 1933, the chief architect of the National Archives, J. Russell Pope, recommended approval of a two-year contract to hire Barry Faulkner, a noted American muralist, to paint a mural for the Exhibit Hall in the planned Rotunda of the National Archives Building. The result was two large oil-on-canvas murals, each about 14 feet by 37 1/2 feet. One mural honors the signers of the Declaration and the other those who signed the Constitution.
