Updated October 19: This print has been sold.
Title: "A view of the attack against Fort Washington and rebel redouts near New York on the 16 of November 1776 by the British and Hessian brigades"
This appears below the title: "Drawn on the spot, by Tho' Davies Capt. R.R. of Artillery."
The print shows artillery fire on the fort and redoubts as well as several boats of soldiers in the river. The New Jersey Palisades and the Hudson River are also shown in the background.
One of the reasons I love this is because of the reference to the "rebel redouts," and it's in such an interesting frame. It's really a lovely piece for anyone interested in our nation's fight for independence.
This print is a reissue from the The Society of Iconophiles.
Date originally created: 1776. This is a later reissue, from the early 1900s.
Size of frame: 16" x 22"
