This was made François Xav. Habermann, an artist who made a whole series of these scenes of New York during the revolution.

I have myself have this one hanging on my wall that depicts how the British responded after taking the city ack.

On the originals you'll notice that the title at top is backwards as these were meant to be viewed through a zograscope! Also an easy way to tell an original from a repro but very neat none the less.
