Product Details:

The Boston Boys Protest to General Thomas Gage by Frederick Coffay Yohn captures a dramatic and little-known moment during the events leading up to the American Revolutionary War. This painting highlights the tension between the British military and the people of Boston, specifically a group of young men, during the occupation of the city by British forces. During the British occupation of Boston, in the lead-up to the Revolutionary War, British soldiers were known to disrupt the daily lives of Bostonians. The men decided to petition General Gage directly, demanding fair treatment. Their protest was significant because it demonstrated the pervasive dissatisfaction with British rule, extending even to the youngest colonists. The American Revolution was not solely a military or political movement but also a cultural shift that affected people of all ages. The Boston boys' boldness exemplifies the growing unity and determination of the colonists to stand against perceived injustices, no matter how small or large.
