Description:

Illumination 1776 by Matthew David Grant is a commissioned oil on board that captures one of history's most consequential moments — Thomas Jefferson at his writing desk, quill in hand, drafting the Declaration of Independence. Looking over his shoulder with quiet interest is Jesus of Nazareth. The full Committee of Five stands witness: Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, and Robert Livingston.

The painting asks every viewer a timeless question: was the hand of the Lord involved in the founding of America, and in what manner?

Like Arnold Friberg's Prayer at Valley Forge, this is a painting that does not preach — it invites reflection. It belongs in any room, in any collection, for any American who has ever wondered about Providence.
