EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tea Destroyed by Indians" showcases an American broadside praising the valiant Sons of Freedom for their audacious raid on British tea ships in 1773. The lithograph, created by the American School in the 18th century, is a powerful testament to the spirit of rebellion and patriotism that coursed through the veins of early American colonists. The image depicts crates of tea being dumped into Boston Harbor by members of the Sons of Liberty, cleverly disguised as Native American Indians. This act, famously known as the Boston Tea Party, was a pivotal moment in American history and symbolized resistance against British oppression. The broadside serves as both propaganda and a celebration of these brave patriots who dared to challenge British authority. It exudes a sense of pride and admiration for those who took part in this defiant act. Accompanying the image is a patriotic poem that further glorifies their actions and stirs up anti-British sentiment among its viewers. Through this historical artifact, we catch a glimpse into America's fight for independence during the tumultuous years leading up to the Revolutionary War. It encapsulates not only an important event but also reflects how newsprint played a crucial role in disseminating information and rallying support among early Americans. This remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder captures both visually and emotionally what it meant to be an American rebel fighting for freedom during this transformative period in our nation's history.
