Filed simply under the title "Patriotic," this picture is less about a single place or event than about a sentiment that American image makers returned to again and again. Pictures in this vein often gathered national symbols such as the flag, the eagle, and red, white, and blue, and they circulated widely as postcards, lithographs, and printed ephemera, especially around Independence Day and during wartime. When looking at such an image, it helps to note which symbols were chosen and how they were arranged, since those choices reveal what its makers hoped viewers would feel.
