Crew after J. S. Copley, this illustration is taken from the book "Illustrations of English and Scottish History". Volume II.

The soldier Major Peirson, portrayed as a brave leader, tragically meets his end amidst the chaos of conflict. The engraving skillfully depicts the intensity and drama surrounding this pivotal event. The historical significance lies in the successful retaking of Jersey from French control by British forces led by Major Peirson. This victory played a crucial role in securing British dominance over strategic territories during that time period. Through meticulous detail and expert craftsmanship, artist J. S.
