EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithographic print titled "Major Pitcairn entering Lexington, 19 April 1775" captures a pivotal moment in American history. Depicting the first military engagements of the American Revolutionary War, this artwork showcases the intense skirmish between British Army regulars and Massachusetts militia men. At the forefront of the image stands Major John Pitcairn, a prominent figure during this critical period. Mounted on his horse, he charges forward with determination and authority. The scene is filled with action as minute men defend their land against an advancing enemy. The artist skillfully portrays the chaos and tension of battle through intricate details. The clash of swords, dust kicked up by galloping horses, and determined expressions on both sides create a sense of urgency and conflict. This print not only commemorates a significant event but also serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for independence. It symbolizes bravery, resilience, and unwavering commitment to freedom. Preserved in private collection today, this litho offers us a glimpse into our nation's past.
