Grabados Dominique Serres British Invasion To Havana Cuba 1762 Engravings

Description: This is an album issued in 1962 by the National Library of Cuba with facsimile reproductions of the engravings made by Dominique Serres on the British Invasion of Havana in 1762. This is a commemorative facsimile edition for the 200 anniversary of that event in the history of Cuba. Dominic Serres RA (1722–1793), also known as Dominic Serres the Elder, was a French-born painter strongly associated with the English school of painting, and with paintings with a naval or marine theme. Such were his connections with the English art world, that he became one of the founding members of the Royal Academy in 1768, and was later briefly (from 1792 until his death) its librarian. Reflecting his early career, many of his paintings have naval themes. Working for a publisher documenting the events in the Seven Years' War (1756–1763), he painted a series of depictions including the capture of Havana (1762). He also painted events in the American War of Independence (1776–1783). In 1780, he was appointed Marine Painter to King George III.
