Vintage illustration features the Boston Tea Party, a political protest that occurred on Dec. 16, 1773, at Griffinâs Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing âtaxation without representation,â dumped 342 chests of British tea into the harbor. The event was the first major act of defiance to British rule over the colonists and a significant event that led to the American Revolution.
