Product Details:

A Marine Lieutenant Dies, April 1776 by Charles H. Waterhouse depicts the dramatic naval engagement between the Continental Navy's American squadron and the British warship HMS Glasgow on April 6, 1776, off the coast of Rhode Island. The painting portrays the death of Second Lieutenant John Fitzpatrick, a Continental Marine serving aboard the American frigate Alfred. During the exchange of cannon and musket fire, Fitzpatrick was struck in the head by a British musket ball and killed while fighting alongside Captain Samuel Nicholas, the first Commandant of the Continental Marines. The engagement marked one of the earliest major naval battles of the American Revolution and demonstrated the important role of Continental Marines in shipboard combat.
