This artwork commemorates 250 years of American freedom through the enduring image of George Washington. Everyone knows the story and famous painting of George Washington's crossing of the Delaware River. On Christmas night in 1776, General George Washington led 2,400 Continental Army soldiers across the ice-choked Delaware River. This daring clandestine operation enabled the surprise defeat of Hessian forces at the Battle of Trenton, marking a critical turning point in the American Revolutionary War. This artistic print shows George Washington in all his glory "After The Crossing".

This design evokes a classic, nostalgic aesthetic, that honors America’s rich heritage and bold ideals that have defined the United States for generations. This is a parody reproduction print based on the famous "Napoleon at the St. Bernard Pass" art (ca 1801 and 1805) by Jacques-Louis David. Initially commissioned by the King of Spain, the composition shows a strongly idealized view of the real crossing that Napoleon and his army made along the Alps through the Great St Bernard Pass in May 1800. This artwork looks stunning in any room.

Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 – August 26, 1974) was an American aviator, military officer, and author. On May 20–21, 1927, he made the first nonstop flight from New York to Paris, a distance of 3,600 miles (5,800 km), flying alone for over 33 hours. His aircraft, the Spirit of St. Louis was built to compete for the $25,000 Orteig Prize for the first flight between the two cities. Although not the first transatlantic flight, it was the first solo crossing of the Atlantic and the longest at the time by nearly 2,000 miles, setting a new flight distance world record. The achievement garnered Lindbergh worldwide fame and stands as one of the most consequential flights in history, signalling a new era of air transportation between parts of the globe.

William Lendrum Mitchell (December 29, 1879 – February 19, 1936) was a United States Army officer who had a major role in the creation of the United States Air Force. Mitchell served in World War I. Gen. William "Billy" Mitchell is widely regarded as the visionary "Father of the U.S. Air Force" for his tireless advocacy of airpower. He realized early on that aircraft and aerial combat would fundamentally change warfare. His battleship demonstrations proved the dominance of air power, after he organized bombing runs on surplus captured battleships (including the Ostfriesland in 1921), successfully sinking them. This shocked the Navy and military traditionalists of the time.

(General of the Air Force Henry "Hap" Arnold is also recognized as the "Father of the Air Force" for founding and commanding the U.S. Army Air Forces into an independent military branch).
