Painting Description
"Declaration of Independence" is a notable oil-on-canvas painting by American artist John Trumbull completed in 1818. It depicts the momentous occasion of the presentation of the draft of the Declaration of Independence to Congress. The painting is based on a much smaller version (approximately 21 inches by 31 inches) that Trumbull created in 1786–87. It features the committee of five—John Adams, Roger Sherman, Robert R. Livingston, Thomas Jefferson (presenting the document), and Benjamin Franklin—standing before John Hancock, the President of the Continental Congress, at the Pennsylvania State House.
Trumbull's intention was to capture the historical significance and the foundational moment in American history. The painting is renowned for its attention to detail, historical accuracy in terms of the depiction of the figures involved, and its role in shaping American cultural identity. Each figure portrayed in the painting was rendered from life sketches that Trumbull prepared during the early stages of the American Revolutionary War, which adds to the authenticity and historical value of the work.
"Declaration of Independence" is part of a series of historical paintings that adorn the rotunda of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. This series was commissioned to Trumbull by the American government in 1817, which reflects the importance and high regard of his work in commemorating pivotal moments in the nation's founding. The painting not only serves as an artistic representation but also as an educational tool, conveying the ideals and challenges of the era in which the United States was born.
