Description: This beautiful copper plate engraving is from Edward Barnard's History of England published by Alexander Hogg, London, 1783. This is an original copper plate engraving which is printed on one side only and measures 35 cm x 23 cm or 13" x 9". This is an original antique which is over 240 years old and was produced soon after the actual event itself. The Battle of Flamborough Head was a naval battle that took place on 23 September 1779 in the North Sea off the coast of Yorkshire between a combined Franco-American squadron, led by Continental Navy officer John Paul Jones, and two British escort vessels protecting a large merchant convoy. It became one of the most celebrated naval actions of the war in America, despite its relatively small size and a considerable dispute over what had actually occurred.
