PRIMAVERA BY SANDRO BOTTICIELLI 2,5 Oz Ag 750 g. Zn, 120 G. Cu 10000 FRANCS REPUBLIQUE DU CHAD 2024

Painted by Emanuel Leutze in 1851, “Washington Crossing the Delaware” is one of the most iconic works of American historical art renowned for its dramatic composition, patriotic symbolism, and heroic depiction of General George Washington. The painting captures a pivotal moment during the American Revolutionary War, celebrating the resilience, leadership, and determination of the Continental Army in their fight for independence.  


 The artwork depicts George Washington leading his troops across the icy Delaware River on the night of December 25, 1776, in a surprise attack against Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey. Washington, standing at the bow of the boat, is the central figure, embodying courage and leadership as he gazes ahead with unwavering resolve. The painting’s dramatic lighting and composition highlight the treacherous conditions of the crossing—choppy waters, drifting ice, and an overcast sky—all emphasising the difficulty of the mission. Surrounding Washington are soldiers representing the diversity of the Continental Army, 

including farmers, frontiersmen, and African American and Native American fighters. The flag bearer, prominently displaying the early American flag, reinforces the sense of unity and patriotism. The rowers, struggling against the river’s currents, symbolizes perseverance and the collective effort required for the success of the revolution.  


 Beyond Leutze’s meticulous attention to historical detail, the painting is imbued with symbolic elements. The treacherous ice and harsh weather conditions reflect the hardships faced by the revolutionaries, while Washington’s upright and commanding presence signifies hope and determination. The dramatic use of light illuminating Washington and the flag symbolizes the dawn of a new nation, reinforcing the idea that the crossing was a turning point in the war.  


 Although Leutze painted this art piece decades after the event, at a time when democratic ideals were under threat in both Europe and America, the painting reflects not just a historical moment but a broader message of perseverance and unity. Created in Germany as a statement of support for democratic revolutions, the artwork carries an enduring message of resilience and the pursuit of freedom. Commissioned with an intent to inspire, “Washington Crossing the Delaware” remains one of the most celebrated historical paintings, embodying the ideals of heroism, sacrifice, and national identity
