Description

Up for auction are two antique A.W. Elson & Co. black‑and‑white engravings depicting iconic moments from the American Revolutionary War. These richly detailed prints include “Washington and His Generals” - after Alexander Hay Ritchie - showing Washington on horseback among key Continental leaders, and “General George Washington Resigning His Commission,” illustrating his historic 1783 appearance before Congress in Annapolis. The rotogravure process captures exceptional tonal depth and fine linework throughout. As is common with antique paper media, the edges show age‑appropriate wear, some corner loss, and light water staining, yet the images remain striking and display beautifully.

Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description. Feel free to reach out with any questions - and as always, happy bidding!
