Among the Washington images here, this chromolithograph stands out for its focus on the day New York City returned to American control. On November 25, 1783, the last British troops left Manhattan, and Washington rode into the city with Governor George Clinton, an event that came to be called Evacuation Day. The print was issued in Philadelphia in 1879, nearly a century later, so it shows how Americans of that era remembered the moment as much as how it looked at the time.
