Horatio Gates

Gilbert Stuart American ca. 1793–94

"This portrait, representing Revolutionary War hero General Horatio Gates (1728–1806), was painted long after he led his troops to victory at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777. Although his military career was turbulent, the English-born Gates is represented in the uniform of a brigadier general, decorated with the medal that Congress ordered struck to commemorate his triumph at Saratoga. In his hand is a copy of the Saratoga Convention. The painting descended in the family of Gates' good friend, Colonel Ebenezer Stevens. The work is a blend of Stuart's more painterly English style and the Copleyesque forthrightness that defined American high style."

Reading how much pettiness there was between junior officers picking sides that contributed to Arnold and Gates falling out, (and thus partially his treachery) is just so laughable. Intentionally poking the highly reactive bear. And yes you look around and not much has changed.
