The wood engraving, created in the 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of this significant event. In this arresting image, Osceola stands tall and proud in his traditional attire as he is surrounded by uniformed American troops. His warrior spirit emanates from every line etched into the engraving. The intensity of the scene is palpable as both sides confront each other with determination and resolve.
