Portrait No. 016 of 250

The Companions of Liberty Collection is an ambitious series of 250 original portraits created to commemorate the 250th Anniversary of the United States. Inspired by museum collections, military archives, and overlooked stories from the Revolutionary era, the collection highlights moments of service, resilience, companionship, and daily life during the struggle for American independence. Each portrait invites viewers to explore the human side of history while building a meaningful collection of historically inspired artwork.

This portrait depicts two Black Revolutionary-era French soldiers seated together beside a hearth while entertaining a spaniel with a wooden stick. Their campaign-worn uniforms, military accouterments, and nearby musket reflect the realities of military life during the American Revolution.

Warm firelight illuminates the interior, highlighting the soldiers' relaxed posture and their playful interaction with the dog. The scene focuses on a quiet moment away from military duties, offering a glimpse into the everyday experiences of enlisted men during the Revolutionary period.
