The Surrender of Lord Cornwallis

The Surrender of Lord Cornwallis

A large-scale historical painting showing the surrender of British General Charles Cornwallis to American and French forces at Yorktown in 1781. The central figure is General George Washington on a white horse, flanked by officers in period military uniforms—some in red coats, others in blue or black. A British flag (with a red cross and white field) and an early American flag (with stars and stripes) are prominently displayed. The scene takes place outdoors on a dirt field with smoke in the background suggesting recent battle, and buildings visible in the distance.
