Washington Crossing the Delaware by Emanuel Leutze.

Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze's 1851 painting "Washington Crossing the Delaware" contains many inaccuracies, including the depiction of Lieutenant James Monroe holding the Stars and Stripes behind General George Washington. Monroe was part of a small detachment of soldiers that crossed the river ahead of the main army to secure the route of march to Trenton.
