Folk Art & Textiles from the Collection of Two Sisters, Washington, DC Plus Addi
Jan 19, 2020 10:00 ESTWashington Crossing the Delaware by Emanuel Leutze is one of the most recognized American paintings of the 19th century. Completed in 1851, it depicts George Washington, along with his troops, crossing the Delaware River during the American Revolutionary War. The scene takes place on December 25, 1776, when the American troops staged a surprise attack on the Hessians at Trenton. An early replica of the painting is featured in the upcoming Folk Art & Textiles auction offered by Garth’s Auctioneers & Appraisers.
