Product Details:

"Soldier of Sherburne's Continental Regiment" by Charles M. Lefferts, depicts a well-uniformed Continental soldier from a specialized unit raised in 1777. The soldier is shown in a dark red regimental coat with green facings—a highly distinctive color scheme uncommon among most Continental units. He wears green waistcoat and breeches, complemented by white gaiters and crossbelts, with a tricorn hat trimmed in white and a cartridge box and knapsack slung over his shoulders. Holding a musket with bayonet, he stands in a calm yet ready posture. Lefferts’ attention to detail captures the unique identity of Sherburne’s Regiment, a unit formed under Congressional authority and known for its formal appearance and reliable service in the Hudson Highlands and Rhode Island campaigns. This image highlights both the individuality and growing professionalism of American forces during the mid-war years.
