What have we learned from working on this production so far. Don't trust artists, they make history be whatever they want it to be. Take this painting that someone wants to hang in a room around 1800, well lets not forget it was painted slightly after 1800, and there was one copy of it, not to mention If you were there, why would you want a historically inacurate painting of an event that was tyranous? Wny not go with the Edward Savage engraving that was made 1776. Look it up, much better, the men actually look hot being in the room.
