. Earl Horter (1881-1940) was an American artist known for his etchings and lithographs, often depicting historical American scenes and cityscapes. He was a prominent figure in American printmaking during the early to mid-20th century, contributing to the revival of interest in these graphic arts. Horter's work is characterized by its strong composition and detailed rendering, capturing the spirit of his subjects.
"Washington at Braddock's Defeat" is a significant work by Horter, illustrating a pivotal moment in early American military history. The print depicts George Washington during the disastrous Battle of the Monongahela in 1755, where British forces under General Braddock, supported by colonial militia, were ambushed by French and Native American forces. Horter's rendition captures the chaos and heroism of the event, making it a valuable historical and artistic document.
