An engraving of the Battle of Bunker Hill by J.G. Von Muller, after the painting by John Trumbull. The original painting's full title is The Death of General Warren at the Battle of Bunker Hill. The battle occurred in 1775 and, despite its subsequent name, most of the fighting took place on Breed's Hill, a rise close to Bunker Hill. The Americans lost to the British, but the British suffered so many casualites that the battle became a symbol of American revolutionary zeal. Joseph Warren (1741-1775) was a patriotic American doctor and soldier who sent Paul Revere on his midnight ride to warn of the British raids.
