In August 1777, Swiss-born artist Pierre Eugène du Simitière sketched North Carolina Brigade troops marching through Philadelphia to join General Washington's forces. His eyewitness drawing captures not only the soldiers but two female camp followers — one holding an infant — riding in a wagon, in direct defiance of regulations Washington had issued just weeks earlier.
A devoted documenter of the Revolution, du Simitière also suggested the motto "E Pluribus Unum" and founded the first public museum in the United States. This wide format postcard reproduces his sketch from the Museum of the American Revolution's collection.
