EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a sketch of the operations before Charlestown, the capital of South Carolina, circa 1780. Created by Joseph Frederick Wallet DesBarres, a talented surveyor and artist for the British Army in North America, this large engraved map provides a detailed depiction of military operations, fortifications, and outlying plantations during the American Revolution. Measuring 110x81 cm and part of the Gilder Lehrman Collection in New York City, this color lithograph offers an intriguing glimpse into history. The map not only highlights the positions of various army units but also notes that on May 12th, 1780, the Americans surrendered control over Charlestown. Des Barres' meticulous attention to detail is evident as he includes shallows and swamps along with important landmarks such as Ashley River and Charleston Harbor. This comprehensive representation serves as both a cartographic masterpiece and historical document. The sketch transports viewers back to a crucial moment in time when South Carolina played a significant role in shaping America's fight for independence. It encapsulates the struggles faced by both sides during this tumultuous period while showcasing Des Barres' exceptional talent for mapping landscapes. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, we are reminded of how art can preserve moments from our past and provide valuable insights into our shared history.
