EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic broadside issued by George Wythe, a prominent member of the House of Burgesses during the American colonial period. The broadside was published in May 1774, following the British invasion of Boston. In response to this alarming event, Wythe called upon his fellow colonists to observe a day of fasting and prayer. The image captures the essence of this significant moment in American history. The text on the broadside is clearly visible, emphasizing its importance as a call to action during a time when tensions between Britain and its North American colonies were rapidly escalating.
