This engraving pairs the text of the Declaration of Independence with a figure of George Washington, a combination that reflects how 19th-century printmakers linked the nation's founding document with the general who led the Continental Army to victory. The Declaration was adopted in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, and its signing and public reading took place in the State House, now Independence Hall, within this park. Engraved versions like this one were often sold to schools, homes and patriotic societies, so they show how the Revolution was remembered long after the events themselves.
