"Commodore Perry's Victory on Lake Erie" is a chromolithograph created by the American printmaking firm Kurz & Allison in 1893. This artwork commemorates the pivotal Battle of Lake Erie, which took place on September 10, 1813, during the War of 1812. The battle was a significant naval engagement between British and American forces, and it resulted in a decisive victory for the United States, under the command of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. This victory ensured American control of the lake for the remainder of the war and was a turning point in the conflict, boosting American morale and contributing to the eventual peace negotiations.

Kurz & Allison, known for their vibrant and dramatic historical prints, sought to capture the heroism and intensity of the battle in their depiction. The lithograph portrays Commodore Perry in the midst of transferring from his heavily damaged flagship, the USS Lawrence, to the USS Niagara. This daring maneuver, under heavy enemy fire, allowed Perry to regroup his forces and ultimately secure victory. The image is filled with dynamic action, with billowing smoke, cannon fire, and the chaotic energy of naval warfare vividly rendered.

The firm of Kurz & Allison was established in Chicago in the late 19th century and became renowned for their detailed and colorful prints of historical events, particularly those related to American history. Their works were widely distributed and served both as educational tools and as patriotic memorabilia. "Commodore Perry's Victory on Lake Erie" is a prime example of their style, combining historical accuracy with a sense of drama and heroism that appealed to the American public of the time.

This lithograph not only serves as a visual record of a significant historical event but also reflects the nationalistic spirit and the interest in American history that was prevalent during the late 19th century. It remains an important piece of historical art, offering insight into both the event it depicts and the period in which it was created.
