First time, says Reuters, anyone has ever put on an exhibit that features paintings, sculptures, artifacts and documents. Really?

(Reuters) - The War of 1812 may be the United States' forgotten conflict, but an unprecedented art museum exhibit shows that there was a lot more to it than the "The Star-Spangled Banner."

The wide-ranging show, "1812: A Nation Emerges" at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, brings together more than 100 paintings, sculptures, artifacts and documents to explain the little-known war and its deep impact on the infant United States.
