The Painter’s Fire: A Forgotten History of the Artists Who Championed the American Revolution
The war that we now call the American Revolution was not only fought in the colonies by soldiers with muskets and bayonets. On both sides of the Atlantic, artists played an integral role in forging revolutionary ideals. Join Zara Anishanslin, associate professor of history and art history and director of the Museum Studies and Public Engagement Program at the University of Delaware, to discover the inspiring stories and intertwined lives of three of these largely forgotten patriot artists: Robert Edge Pine, Prince Demah, and Patience Wright. They defied the British monarchy, armed with paint, canvas, wax, and espionage while risking their lives and reputations to support the cause of liberty.
