EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, a renowned American naval officer of the 18th century. Engraved by William G. Jackman, this stunning piece captures the essence of Perry's heroic persona. Perry is depicted in his uniform, exuding confidence and strength. The half-length portrait emphasizes his commanding presence as he gazes into the distance with determination. His epaulets add an air of authority to his already impressive stature. Known for his famous victory over the British at Lake Erie in 1813, Perry solidified himself as a national hero during the War of 1812. However, tragedy struck when he succumbed to yellow fever while stationed in Trinidad just six years later. The artist, John Wesley Jarvis, pays homage to Perry's legacy through this engraving. With meticulous attention to detail and skillful technique, Jarvis immortalizes one of America's most celebrated naval officers. Part of The Stapleton Collection and now housed in a private collection, this print serves as a reminder of Perry's unwavering bravery and dedication to serving his country. It stands as a testament to the sacrifices made by those who fought for American independence during this pivotal era in history. As we admire this remarkable artwork from Fine Art Finder courtesy of Bridgeman Images, let us remember Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry's significant contributions that shaped our nation's maritime heritage forevermore.
