Boston Massacre Engraving by Paul Revere - Historical Illustration #3017352 (License: Personal Use)

This 1770 copperplate engraving by Paul Revere depicts the Boston Massacre, where British soldiers fired into a crowd of colonists, killing five. Though artistically embellished for propaganda effect-showing soldiers in formation firing deliberately-the image became a powerful catalyst for anti-British sentiment. The scene includes Crispus Attucks lying in the foreground, the Old State House, and the Custom House in the background.
