| Image Description |
Originally painted in 1976 to honor our country's bi-centennial year, The Prayer at Valley Forge
in the last 20 years has become increasingly cherished and recognized as a supreme 20th century
masterpiece of patriotic American art. In it we feel the cold, the suffering, and the weight of
the burden falling on that tall and lonely man, driven to his knees there in the bitter snows of
Valley Forge. This picture, marking a bold rejection of fleeting artistic and political "fashions,"
now expresses a powerful affirmation of faith, patriotic duty, and the deep spiritual depths in the
founding of our country.
"Since I was a boy, I have revered General Washington. At age 12, I drew what I thought was
a fine picture of him astride his white horse. Along with learning the American legend of his
praying at Valley Forge, this deep inspiration of boyhood was never to leave me.
"And so it was that I waited many years to picture him again, in prayer now, in the snow,
dismounted from his strong horse — only this time in the full power and richness of oil
colors.
"To prepare for this painting, to insure accuracy in trees and landscape, I made a pilgrimage
to Valley Forge, in the dead of winter. In the summer, the place is filled with visitors. But
now, in the snows of February, it was deserted, the wind moaning through the great trees — silent,
lonely, and cold. It was a cold that chilled to the bone, a cold that froze my fingers until I could
no longer sketch nor even snap my camera.
"To insure accuracy in man-made things, I sought out whatever museums, collections, libraries, or
informed individuals could offer on horse gear or uniform. At the Smithsonian Military History Museum, I
made minutely accurate sketches from the very uniform actually worn by Washington.
"As for facial likeness, I studied every portrait ever sketched, carved, or painted from life, but always
keeping in mind how cold and rawboned he must have looked during that winter encampment.
"But such research, vital as it is, provides only physical facts. What I really tried for was, through the
medium of paint, to recall the pain, the cold of that cruel winter of 1777-78. I sought to pay
tribute to the tall and heavy-burdened man who alone held our struggling nation together.
"For, while the British grew fat and warm and well-fed in Philadelphia, it was the man Washington who
stayed with his starving and freezing army through that dreadful winter at Valley Forge. It was in
desperation that he wrote to the governor of New Jersey, 'Our sick naked, our well naked, our
unfortunate men in captivity naked?' With his own countrymen indifferent to their condition, where else
could he turn but to God?
"It should be plain to anyone that this is a symbolic picture, yet the event is not without historical
documentation through eye-witness accounts of Valley Forge residents. But from Washington's own words there
can be no doubt of his deep and humbled dependence upon whom he chose to call that all-wise and powerful
Being on whom alone our success depends.
"It is my hope that coming through this picture will once again whisper the spirit of Valley Forge, of suffering and
devotion and pain, of liberty, and of the hand of God in the affairs of men."-- Arnold Friberg |
