Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Paul Revere's engraving of the Boston Massacre, created in 1770, depicted British soldiers firing on innocent colonists. While the event did result in the deaths of several colonists, Revere's image was not an accurate representation of the event and was meant to stir up anti-British sentiment in the colonies. Thus, it can be said that the engraving distorted the Boston Massacre.
