(New York, 1813-1884)
Incident at St. David's Court Martial, unsigned, oil on canvas, 30 x 38-1/4 in.; reproduction carved gilt wood frame, 35-1/4 x 43-1/2 in.
Note: Tompkins Matteson was well known in the New York art world of the mid-nineteenth century. His renderings of famous historical scenes include Washington Crossing the Delaware and The Spirit of '76, and his work was well known through both the American Art Union and the National Academy of Design. It has been suggested that this scene represents the court martial of Lieutenant Colonel Isaac W.
