Description

United States Declaration of Independence

Source

archives.gov

Date

I originally downloaded this file a few years ago. At that time, a very high resolution image was made available to the public. The currently available version at at archives.gov is a much smaller resolution file than this one. NOTE: This is a VERY LARGE file (14,862KB) and will take extra time to download.

Author

Drafted by Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28, 1776, as authorized by the Continental Congress, July 2, 1776 with minor revisions and released publicly on July 4, 1776.
