Rather than a single scene, this color lithograph gathers the material culture of the American Revolution onto one sheet: flags, military uniforms, paper currency and arms, all tied to the period of the war. Its maker, H.A. Ogden, is named on the sheet, though the record does not say more about his work. The print's date, somewhere between 1880 and 1920, places it in the decades when the nation's centennial and later anniversaries drove a steady market for patriotic imagery. Because Continental Army clothing and flags were far less uniform than later sheets often suggest, the piece is best read as an illustrated summary of the era rather than a precise record of what soldiers actually wore or carried.
