M-76 (rev. 09/14) In 1876, to commemorate 100 years of independence from Great Britain, Archibald M. Willard presented his painting, Spirit of 76, at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, PA. The painting depicts three generations of Americans fighting for their new nation s freedom, one of whom is marching along though slightly wounded in battle. Willard s powerful portrayal of the strength and determination of the American people in the face of overwhelming odds inspired millions. The painting quickly became one of the most popular patriotic images in American history. This depiction of courage and character still resonates today as the Spirit of 76 lives on in our newest Americans.
