William Stratton's engraved copy of Revere's famous print demonstrates continued demand for an image of the 1770 event later seen as a crucial spark that shaped public feelings in the years leading up to the American Revolution.
Lightly engraved text along the lower edge here identifies the work as a facsimile published in Boston in 1832. See 24.90.1395 for an hand-colored version and 10.125.103 for Revere's original engraving.
