Question

The Paul Revere engraving of the Boston Massacre is not an accurate depiction of the event.

a)True
b)False

Answer 1

a)True. The Paul Revere engraving of the Boston Massacre is not an accurate depiction of the event.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Paul Revere engraving of the Boston Massacre is not an accurate depiction of the event.

Although Paul Revere's engraving, titled 'The bloody massacre perpetrated in King Street Boston on March 5th 1770,' was a highly influential piece of propaganda used by the Sons of Liberty, it is considered to be an exaggerated and biased representation of the event.

Eyewitness accounts and later depictions of the Boston Massacre provide a more balanced and nuanced understanding of the incident, which involved both the British soldiers and the crowd provoking each other.
