What attitude do you think Trumbull was trying to convey? Why did Trumbull include Washington’s slave Billy Lee, and what does Lee represent in this painting?

answer: in 1900, there were no "workplace safety laws"!

explanation: at the beginning of this century, workers in the united states faced remarkably high health and safety risks on the job.

a century ago in 1900 about three hundred out of every one hundred thousand miners were killed on the job each year.

[industria] developments occurred within a legal and regulatory climate that diminished employer’s interest in safety. as a result, americans developed production methods that were both highly productive and often very dangerous.

the exodus of these people from constantinople contributed to the revival of greek and roman studies, which led to the development of the renaissance in humanism and science. byzantine emigrants also brought to western europe the better preserved and accumulated knowledge of their own greek civilization
