war of 1812 from Huber

LIBERTY-War of 1812
New England c.1815
Watercolor


This exuberant patriotic folk art watercolor depicts Liberty representing the United States crushing England, represented as a lion's head with a human face, under her foot. The American flag is depicted six times while two American frigates are leaving port, not only to convoy merchantmen, but also to destroy the British warships that might attack them.

Most likely this unusual watercolor was based on a print yet to be identified.

Watercolor on paper; x inches sight.
