Product Details:

Charleston 1776 by H. Charles McBarron depicts the Battle of Sullivan’s Island, fought on June 28, 1776, near Charleston, South Carolina. The artwork lcenters on Colonel William Moultrie’s defense of the palmetto-log fort against a superior British naval force. McBarron, known for accuracy in military dress and equipment, portrays Continental soldiers in action, manning cannons behind the fort’s resilient palmetto walls, while British ships bombard from the harbor. A key detail often included is the moment Sergeant William Jasper raises the fallen regimental flag, a symbol of defiance that became legendary. This early American victory was critical for Southern morale and helped delay British control of the region.
