This book unites images of restored portraits from 19th-century engravings and lithographs with modern design to reveal the diverse Founding Fathers behind the world-changing signatures—featuring Frederick Girsch's iconic engraving of the Declaration of Independence (after John Trumbull), reproduced for generations on U.S. currency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe central interpretive feature, \u003ci\u003eDeciphering an Iconic Engraving: A Window into History\u003c\/i\u003e, identifies every figure in the scene and introduces five patriots who inspired independence but did not sign. Most significantly, the facing-page spread unites all 56 signers: the 43 from Girsch's vignette alongside Erekson's portraits of the 13 signers missing from his vignette—the only complete visual record of 1776 leadership on two facing pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOrganized chronologically by signing order (New Hampshire first, Georgia last), each section presents concise biographies and restored portraits of all 56 signers.
