Item Details
Description
(WAR OF 1812.) Thomas Sutherland, engraver; after Major Dennis. The Battle of Queenston. Hand-colored aquatint, 15 x 21¼ inches; minimal wear. - London: I.W. Laird, 12 April 1836

Depicts the first major land battle of the War of 1812, in which an American force made a disastrous effort to cross the Niagara River into Canada. The subcaption notes that the battle "ended in a complete Victory on the part of the British, having captured 927 Men, killed or wounded about 500, Taken 1400 Stand of Arms, a six Pounder, and Stand of Colours." The date given in the caption is incorrect; the battle took place on 13 October 1812, not 1813.
