“Siege of Yorktown”, October 1781. Tony Barton and me.

The Siege of Yorktown, Battle of Yorktown, or Surrender at Yorktown, the latter taking place on October 19, 1781, was a decisive victory by a combined force of American Continental Army troops led by General George Washington and French Army troops led by the Comte de Rochambeau over a British Army commanded by British lord and Lieutenant General Lord Cornwallis. The culmination of the Yorktown campaign, the siege proved to be the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War in North America, as the surrender by Cornwallis and the capture of both him and his army, prompted the British government to negotiate an end to the conflict.

I’ve had the chance and privilege to cooperate with Magister Tony Barton, who has realized in ​​a sublime way, the real Stars of the scene, ie the General Washington (including its portentous portrait), the Earl de Rochambeau and the young French officer.
Thanks again Tony, you’ve been really priceless!
