Interview Between Lord Howe & Congress Committee Hand-Colored Engraving c.1860s

Step back into Revolutionary War history with this antique steel engraving, Interview Between Lord Howe & Committee of Congress, after the painting by Alonzo Chappel. Published by Johnson, Fry & Co. (New York, c. 1858–1866), this print depicts the Staten Island Peace Conference of 1776, where Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Edward Rutledge met Admiral Richard Howe in an effort to negotiate peace during the early days of the American Revolution. This example has been hand-colored, adding vibrancy to the historic scene. The image remains strong, but the piece shows its age: foxing, toning, margin stains, and mat burn are present, along with an old tape remnant on the verso. Despite these flaws, it retains considerable charm as a 19th-century piece of Americana. Perfect for collectors of Revolutionary War ephemera, American history prints, or admirers of Franklin and Adams, this print is ready for framing and display. • Hand-colored engraving • Depicts historical meeting • 19th-century artwork • Rich color details • Textured paper Foxing and toning throughout margins; lower rim water-stain; mat burn; old tape on verso.
