Framed Delaware Art

Delaware might be a state small in size, but it is not small on history. Home to Native Americans, Delaware has ushered through the times of change and has served on the front lines of battle during the American Revolution. Artists have used the backdrop of this mighty little state as an emblem of American freedom and pride. Framed Delaware artwork captures the proud American and deep native roots of this great state.

Famous romantic painters like Thomas Sully and Emanuel Leutze were moved to capture the triumphal beauty of battle during the American Revolution in Framed Delaware paintings. “Washington Crossing the Delaware” by Emanuel Leutze is famous for it’s iconic depiction of the United States first president, George Washington, nobly crossing the icy Delaware river in a rowboat, the American flag stately flying behind. Thomas Sully’s painting titled “The Passage of the Delaware, 1819” also depicts Washington proudly seated upon a white stead, leading his men over the snowy terrain into battle.
