Rare hand-colored print, 14.25 x 8.75, depicting a dramatic battle scene during the War of 1812, between Col. Richard M. Johnson and Indians commanded by Tecumseh. Engraved by A. Bowen, whose name appears in the lower left, this work has been hand-colored in red, yellow, orange, blue and black. The center of the scene depicts two officers fighting with Indians. Col. Johnson is mounted and is being attacked by an Indian with a tomahawk. In the foreground, an Indian scalps a fallen drummer, while Tecumseh, holding a spear, looks on. American troops, in formation, fire on Indians armed with bows and arrows. In the background, American cavalry pursue fleeing Indians. Col. Johnson, who legend says personally killed Tecumseh, would later become Vice-President of the United States under Martin Van Buren. Though undated, this print is known to have been prepared for the 1832 edition of Henry Trumbull’s History of the Discovery of America. In good condition, with scattered toning and dampstaining, several vertical folds, a rough right edge, and a small separation along one fold.
