Rendered in his instantly recognizable calligraphic style - an intricate fusion of ancient hieroglyphs, Gothic lettering, and global typography - the piece exudes a sense of power and defiance. The layered composition evokes both historical gravitas and street-wise urgency, positioning contemporary social struggles within a broader historical context. As with much of Retna’s work, American Revolutionaries feels both timeless and urgent, offering a visually arresting tribute to those who challenge the status quo.%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22artist%22%3ERetna%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22title_and_year%22%3E%3Cspan%20class%3D%22title_and_year_title%22%3EAmerican%20Revolutionaries%3C/span%3E%2C%20%3Cspan%20class%3D%22title_and_year_year%22%3E2009%3C/span%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22medium%22%3ESerigraph%20and%20silkscreen%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22dimensions%22%3E28%20x%2039%20in%3Cbr/%3E%0A71.1%20x%2099.1%20cm%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv%20class%3D%22edition_details%22%3EEdition%20of%2050%3C/div%3E
