The Repeal, or the Funeral of Miss Ame-Stamp 1766

"The Repeal, or the Funeral of Miss Ame-Stamp" is a satirical print created in 1766 by an anonymous artist. The print depicts a funeral procession for the Stamp Act, which was repealed by the British Parliament that year. The figures in the procession represent various American colonists, while the ships in the background symbolize the newly opened trade routes between America and England. The image satirizes the colonial response to the Stamp Act, which led to widespread boycotts and protests. The artist uses visual symbolism and humor to convey the message of colonial resistance to British taxation.
