This talk will reconsider the course and meanings of the American Revolution through an exploration of paintings by the American artists John Singleton Copley, Benjamin West, and John Trumbull. Ultimately, it will seek to answer the question of how popular conceptions – and misconceptions – of the American Revolution came to be, an important task as Americans commemorate the 250th anniversary of independence.
