"The Hessian - Sleepy Hollow - Battle of Brandywine" by Leon Goodman
When America was under the yoke of England and the actual captital of British colonial America was actually London. King George III was strugglinmg to control his American jewel in the Crown colony!!! The problem with the American rebellion was its militias ranks were swelled the British Army deserters that were highly trained and motivated to break the old colonial chains.
King George III's answer was to pay £150,000 to recruit 30,000 German Hessian mercenaries to assist the British Army in its fight. Of these Hessians after the American War of Independence only 7000 ever returned to Germany either killed or settled in the new USA.
The Battle of Brandywine, also known as the Battle of Brandywine Creek, was fought between the American Continental Army of General George Washington and the British Army of General Sir William Howe on September 11, 1777, as part of the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783). The forces met near Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. More troops fought at Brandywine than at any other battle of the American Revolution. It was also the second longest single-day battle of the war, after the Battle of Monmouth, with continuous fighting for 11 hours.

Leon Goodman has been a professional artist for the majority of his working life. His work has been sold at The Omell Gallery, Ascot, as well as Christies, the fine art auction house in London. Many of his works have sold for thousands of pounds in the U.S. ( Please check out Ref only; leon-goodman.com ) Since seeing his work, Risborough Art Gallery have made him a regularly featured artist. Leon’s philosophy is that it is not the delineation of the subject which is important, but its fragmentation. He believes a strictly photographic image does not allow the viewer to participate in the painting. If the image is fragmented, the viewer can imagine for himself the missing parts and involve himself in the creation of the whole image. The viewer has seen his own interpretation of the fragmented images; the next viewer may see something different.
