Marking the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this exhibition at the Saint Louis Art Museum features more than 50 works created between 1770 and 2018.

Featured works include silver by Paul Revere, paintings by George Caleb Bingham and Benjamin West and prints by Norman Akers and Jacob Lawrence.

Picturing Independence is arranged in two sections: Picturing Revolution, which depicts the American Revolution and military service, and Symbols of the New Nation, which juxtaposes the development and response to national symbols such as the U.S. flag, the bald eagle and the Statue of Liberty.
