EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print commemorates the brave actions of Sergeant Jasper of Charleston during the pivotal event of the American Revolutionary War on June 28, 1776. The British Fleet and Army launched a combined assault on Charleston, South Carolina, with the primary objective being to seize Fort Moultrie and capture the colonial colors. Amidst the chaos and intensity of the battle, Sergeant Jasper, a valiant defender of the fort, was tasked with the critical mission of replacing the colors that had been shot away. With the enemy forces closing in, he bravely hoisted the new colors atop the fort, rallying his fellow patriots and bolstering their morale. The print captures the essence of the struggle for American independence, as the brave sergeant stands tall against the backdrop of the stormy sea and the ominous British fleet. The determination and resilience of the American forces are palpable, as they defend their homeland against the invading forces. This historic moment marked a turning point in the war, as the British were unable to capture Fort Moultrie and Charleston. The successful defense of the fort and the raising of the new colors served as a symbol of hope and perseverance for the American colonists in their fight for independence. The print, which dates back to the time of the event, is a testament to the courage and tenacity of Sergeant Jasper and the American forces during the Revolutionary War. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men and women in the pursuit of freedom and self-governance.
