This engraving captures a significant moment in American history - the Leaders of the First Continental Congress, 1774. Published around 1894, this historical print showcases some of the most influential figures who played pivotal roles in shaping the United States as we know it today. Seated at Carpenters Hall in Philadelphia from September 5 to October 26,1774, these esteemed men gathered to discuss and address grievances against British rule. Among them are John Adams, Gouverneur Morris, Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson - all founding fathers who would leave an indelible mark on American politics and society. John Adams (1735-1826), later becoming the second President of the United States; Gouverneur Morris (1752-1816), known for his contributions to drafting the U. S. Constitution; Alexander Hamilton (1755-1804), one of America's foremost statesmen; and Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), author of the Declaration of Independence and third U. S. President. The image portrays these leaders with a sense of gravitas befitting their historic significance. Their expressions exude determination and intellect while seated together within Carpenters Hall's interior. This illustration serves as a powerful reminder of their dedication to forging a new nation during turbulent times.
