| The
Redoubt - Battle of Bunker Hill
In his sequel to the already iconic painting "Bunker Hill",
here we see the latter phase of the epic battle of June 17, 1775. After
appalling losses in two previous assaults, the British push forward in a
third attempt to storm the American position on Breed's Hill. As the
patriots' ammunition runs out, the British Marines & 47th Regiment of
Foot pour over the earthen walls in a furious rage. The Americans are
forced back out of their redoubt in one of the most brutal hand-to-hand
fights of the war. Giving ground only in the face of overwhelming force,
President of the Massachusetts Provincial Congress, Dr. Joseph Warren is
shot dead by a British officer. Again Troiani has produced another
masterwork rich in accurate detail,even down to the anchor emblems on the
British Marine breastplates. With historical background certificate
written by renowned authority James L. Kochan
