Well, I declare!

This time in History - From September 5th to October 26, 1774, the First Continental Congress met in Philadelphia at Carpenter’s Hall and issued the Declaration and Resolves. The painting by John Trumbull, American artist (1756-1843) depicts the scene. It is also the inspiration for the reverse side of the $2 bill!
