Description The Star Spangled Banner is a music-inspired piece of digital artwork, featuring a female artist singing and playing the acoustic guitar while sitting on a stool. The background is made of a dramatic mix of US flag and vintage sheet music with The Star Spangled Banner among them. Francis Scott Key wrote a poem in 1814 titled The Defence of Fort M'Henry, which is later set to the music of a popular English drinking tune called To Anacreon in Heaven by composer John Stafford Smithand. People began referring to the song as The Star-Spangled Banner and in 1916 President Woodrow Wilson announced that it should be played at all official events. It was adopted as the national anthem on March 3, 1931.----------------The Star-Spangled BannerO say can you see, by the dawns early light,What so proudly we haild at the twilights last gleaming,Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fightOer the ramparts we watchd were so gallantly streaming?And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,O say does that star-spangled banner yet waveOer the land of the free and the home of the brave?On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deepWhere the foes haughty host in dread silence reposes,What is that which the breeze, oer the towering steep,As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?Now it catches the gleam of the mornings first beam,In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it waveOer the land of the free and the home of the brave!And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,That the havoc of war and the battles confusionA home and a Country should leave us no more?Their blood has washd out their foul footsteps pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slaveFrom the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth waveOer the land of the f
