Product Details:

Truman’s Battery by Dominic D’Andrea portrays an episode from the War of 1812, focusing on the American coastal artillery defense at Sackets Harbor, New York, where a young Captain Harry S. Truman—namesake of the later president—commanded a battery during the British attack. The painting captures the tense moment of cannon fire along the shoreline, emphasizing the importance of fixed artillery in protecting vital naval yards on Lake Ontario. D’Andrea uses the scene to highlight how local defenses and determined militia forces played a decisive role in safeguarding American control of the Great Lakes, an often underappreciated but crucial theater of the war.
