About the Item

An original illustration commissioned by the Thomas D. Murphy Company for their art calendars, published 1977.
The dynamic image captures Francis Scott Key and his companions on the deck of a battleship, their gazes fixed on the American flag flying defiantly above Fort McHenry amidst the heat of battle during the War of 1812.
Francis Scott Key (1779-1843) was an American lawyer, author, and poet who is best known as the author of the poem "Defence of Fort M'Henry." Inspired by witnessing the American flag still flying over Fort McHenry after the British bombardment during the War of 1812, Key penned these verses, which were later set to the tune of a popular British song. This song eventually became the United States' national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner," a powerful symbol of American resilience and patriotism.
