About the piece
Painted in 1852 by Emanuel Leutze, this work captures a legendary moment from the American Revolutionary War. Catherine Schuyler is seen setting fire to her family's crops at Old Saratoga to prevent them from falling into the hands of the advancing British forces. The painting is notable for its rich detail, vibrant light, and the urgent, heroic posture of the figures against the rolling rural landscape.
