Image description

Samuel Adams (September 27 [O.S. September 16] 1722 – October 2, 1803) to President John Adams. In this celebrated portrait, Adams is shown at what he himself would always consider his greatest moment: his confrontation with Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson the day after the Boston Massacre of March 5, 1770, during which Adams demanded the expulsion of British troops from the town. He points to the charter and seal granted Massachusetts by King William and Queen Mary; in his right hand is the clearly legible petition “Instructions of … Town Boston,” prepared by his aggrieved fellow citizens.
