La destruction de la statue royale a Nouvelle Yorck Die zerstorung der koniglichen bild saule zu Neu Yorck.
Summary
Print shows a misguided attempt by the artist to depict the destruction of an equestrian statue of King George III in New York City on July 9, 1776; this view shows what appear to be mostly slaves attempting to pull over the statue of a man standing, holding up a scroll or baton.
