Washington Crossing the Delaware Canvas Print by Emanuel Leutze

Description

Washington Crossing the Delaware, printed on gallery-wrapped canvas from Emanuel Leutze’s 1851 original at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Available as an 14×11 or 20×16, in gallery-wrap canvas or the floating-frame style. As a washington crossing the delaware canvas print it carries the ice-filled river, the straining oarsmen, and the first light of dawn behind the raised flag onto your wall.

Leutze painted the scene in Düsseldorf, Germany in 1851, more than seventy years after the actual crossing on Christmas night, 1776, working from written accounts rather than the riverbank itself — which is why the flag shown was not adopted until later in the war. He signed the canvas “E. Leutze. Düsseldorf 1851” in the lower corner. The painting quickly became one of the most reproduced images of the American Revolution, and hangs today at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Each canvas is printed and stretched to order in our family-owned workshop in Northeast Ohio, made in the USA with fade-resistant inks that keep the icy blues and dawn light accurate. Choose the classic gallery wrap or upgrade to the floating-frame style for extra depth. The 20×16 makes a strong solo statement over a mantel or desk, while the 14×11 pairs easily with other patriotic or Americana prints in a gallery wall.

Both sizes hang with adhesive strips already included — press them to the wall and it holds securely without nails or tools, then removes cleanly without holes or wall damage, ideal for offices, classrooms, and living rooms. The floating frame is a simple upgrade if you want more presence on the wall. It suits a study, a classroom, or a veteran’s office just as well as a living room.

Add this washington crossing the delaware canvas print to a study, office, or classroom for a lasting piece of American history.

Every order is made and packed by hand in our family shop in Northeast Ohio. We use premium gallery-wrapped canvas, high-quality frame material and fade-resistant inks for both prints and canvas. Each frame is made to order and shipped same or next business day.
