That is such an amazing painting. I could stare at it for hours. Such detail! Thanks for posting.

See ‘The Crossing ‘. With Jeff Daniels. Great version of this.

I swam the Delaware to invest my thoughts at the crossing. There has to be some embellishment. The current there is about 15 mph. Unless you had ropes stretched across the half mile, one would find themselves in Camden. Holding ropes to the current almost floods the boat broadside. The crossing had to be treacherous and full of calamity.

Wasn’t there a ridiculous ‘controversy’ about the fob from Washington’s pocket watch being in an ‘inappropriate’ location a few years ago?
