Portrait engraving circa 1794 of Thomas Paine (1737 - 1809). Paine was an author, intellectual, revolutionary and one of the Founding Fathers of the USA. Born in Norfolk, he emigrated from England to Philadelphia in 1774 and is remembered as one of the greatest voices of the American Revolution - penning the popular and influential 50-page Common Sense pamplet in 1776 that argued for complete American independence from Britain. He returned to England in 1787 and published The Rights of Man in 1791 - opposing the idea of monarchy and defending the French Revolution. Payne then fled to Paris to escape prosecution for treason and there wrote The Age of Reason - winning notoriety for his promotion of reason and free thinking and his arguing against institutionalised religion and Christian doctrine. He returned to America in 1802 but died in poverty. Engraving by William Sharp (1749 - 1824), based on a 1792 painting by artist George Romney (1734 - 1802).

When his angry father discovered the tree he questioned the young boy who immediately confessed - delighting his parent with his honesty. Washington (1732 - 1799) grew up to become the commander of the Continental Army (1775 – 1783) in the American Revolutionary War and the first US President (1789 - 1797).

Colour engraving print circa 1859 of Benjamin Franklin's infamous appearance before the Lords in Council (Privy Council) at Whitehall Chapel, London, in 1774. Engraving by Robert Whitechurch (1814 - c1880), based on a painting by Christian Schussele (1824 - 1879). Franklin (1706 - 1790) was publicly ridiculed and chastised during the appearance after he obtained and leaked letters written by Thomas Hutchinson, the English-appointed governor of Massachusetts. The letters had caused outrage in the Colonies because they called for a crackdown on the rights of Bostonians. Franklin's treatment by the Council accelerated the chain of events that ultimately resulted in the independence of the Colonies. Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America and was one of the "Committee of Five" appointed by the Second Continental Congress to draft the Declaration of Independence. He is also remembered as a noted polymath who excelled at many things. He was an author, theorist, diplomat, statesman, printer, inventor and scientist and is particularly remembered for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity and his invention of the lightning rod.

Print circa 1870 showing the surrender of General Lord Cornwallis to General George Washington and French forces following the siege of Yorktown in Virginia on October 19 1781. The siege was a decisive victory by the combined forces of Washington and French troops led by General Comte de Rochambeau over the British army of Cornwallis. It proved to be the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War and prompted the British government to eventually negotiate an end to the conflict. The print shows Major General O'Hara, substituting for Cornwallis, offering his sword to Rochambeau who is standing next to Washington. Engraving by Illman Brothers, based on a painting by Armand Dumaresq.
