Product Details:

This is a reproduction of Nathaniel Currier's illustration of the Boston Tea Party titled "The Destruction of Tea at Boston Harbor". On the evening of December 16, 1773, a group of men disguised as Mohawk Indians and who called themselves the Sons of Liberty, boarded three ships and dumped 342 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor. Of the many important Revolutionary events captured by Currier & Ives in their lithographs, The Destruction of Tea at Boston Harbor was one of the most popular. The image reflected the spirit of the people united against British authority and in support of the New Republic.
