How many of the people in Trumbull's painting signed the Declaration, and how many people actually signed it?

Respuesta :

42 he shows and 56 that actually signed it

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Forty-seven people in Trumbull's painting signed the Declaration, but in reality, fifty-six men signed it.

We are referring to the famous painting "Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776," created by John Trumbull, that was exhibited in the Capitol Rotunda. That image also appeared in the two-dollar bills. Some historians considered that an event like the one depicted in the picture does not look like the original place.
