Thirteen Colonies

Huntington Beach, James River, Newport News, Virginia, July 23, 2012 | All photos by Keith Yahrling

Artist: Keith Yahrling

Project: For the Revolution

Description: Battle sites from the Revolutionary War extend across the original thirteen colonies—from Maine to Georgia, from Appalachia to the Atlantic shore. In his series For the Revolution, Keith Yahrling explores the sites of those battles, searching for how the concepts of freedom and liberty are subtly embedded in the American landscape.
