SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture - The Painter's Fire: A Forgotten History of the Artists Who Championed the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:The war that we now call the American Revolution was not only fought in the colonies by soldiers with muskets and bayonets. On both sides of the Atlantic\, artists also played an integral role in forging revolutionary ideals. Discover with Dr. Zara Anishanslin the inspiring stories and intertwined lives of three largely forgotten Patriot artists: Robert Edge Pine\, Prince Demah\, and Patience Wright. They defied the British monarchy\, armed with paint\, canvas\, wax\, and espionage while risking their lives and reputations to support the cause of liberty. \nThe Historic Annapolis Virtual Lecture Series is offered free of charge thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor.

SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture - Brothers in Arms: The Revolutionary Service of James and Edmund Brice
DESCRIPTION:During the Revolutionary War\, James Brice served as Captain of the Annapolis city militia and County Lieutenant of the Anne Arundel County militia\, positions that earned him the honorary title “Colonel.” But James wasn’t the only Colonel in the Brice family; his brother Edmund\, an artist by training\, was named a Lieutenant Colonel by Congress at the personal request of the Marquis de Lafayette.
