Why This Collection
In 2026, the United States marks 250 years since the Declaration of Independence. Heritage Lab is curating the finest public domain artwork and primary sources from this era into museum-quality prints and educational resources.
Every piece is sourced from the Library of Congress, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Smithsonian, and other major public collections. Restored with care, printed on archival paper, and presented with the historical context they deserve.
Heritage Lab Technical Studies
Some artifacts deserve more than restoration. Heritage Lab Technical Studies take a single historical object, restore the original source material, and reinterpret it as new artwork. Each study includes prints in two aesthetics, a provenance guide, and the full story behind the artifact.
Portraits
The faces of the founding generation, from life portraits to posthumous tributes.
Battles
Lexington, Bunker Hill, Trenton, Yorktown. The turning points rendered in paint and print.
Documents
The Declaration, the Constitution, and the letters that shaped a nation.
Maps
Revolutionary-era cartography showing the physical landscape of independence.
Scenes
Daily life, celebrations, and the quiet moments between the famous ones.
Satire
Political cartoons and broadsides from both sides of the Atlantic.
Engineering
The machines and inventions of the Revolutionary era, studied and reinterpreted as original artwork.
