Description
English: A Thomas Buttersworth, painting at first thought to be HMS Belvidera escaping from USS President, this painting depicts HMS Endymion yawing to rake USS President at dusk as President is ahead of the British frigate and has her after sails cut while the British frigate has her foresails cut. Furthermore, the British frigate in the painting and HMS Endymion were painted all black which was extremely unusual for ships of that size at the time.
