520			_a"The Spirit of '76: Some Recollections of the Artist and the Painting" by Henry Kelsey Devereux is a historical account published in 1926. The book reflects on the famous patriotic painting created by Archibald M. Willard, detailing its inspiration and the characters who influenced its creation. This work provides insights into the artistic process as well as the cultural and historical significance of the painting during a time when American patriotism was fervently celebrated. In the book, Devereux shares his personal memories of Willard and the dynamics surrounding the painting of "The Spirit of '76." He recounts the backgrounds of the figures depicted in the artwork, including his own role as the drummer boy and Hugh Mosher as the fifer. The narrative elucidates how Willard, initially intending to create a humorous piece titled "Yankee Doodle," transformed his vision to capture the essence of American spirit and patriotism in a tumultuous era. Devereux also discusses the painting's legacy, its exhibition at the Centennial Exposition, and its role in stirring emotional responses among viewers, highlighting the deep impact it has had on American cultural identity.
