EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment in the history of the U.S.-Mexico War: The Capture of Tabasco in 1847. Commodore Matthew C. Perry, leading the U.S. naval forces, navigates up the Tabasco River on board two American paddle steamers and a small ship. The audacious move aimed to secure the strategic port of San Juan Bautista from Mexican defenses. The Mexican forces, fiercely determined to protect their territory, retaliated with relentless gunfire from the shoreline. The American ships, powered by their innovative paddle wheels, bravely pressed forward, weathering the intense barrage. The smoke rising from the ships and the riverbank underscores the intensity of the battle. This event marked a significant turning point in the war, as the U.S. gained control over the Tabasco region and further solidified their presence in the Gulf of Mexico. The successful capture of Tabasco demonstrated the U.S. Navy's growing power and influence, paving the way for the eventual Mexican cession of California and other territories in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This evocative print, captured from the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the balance of power in the Americas was being redefined.
