Commodore Esek Hopkins (1718-1802),
Commander in Chief of the Continental Navy, 1775-1777
Line engraving published in the "Hibernian Magazine",
Dublin, Ireland, August 1776.
As with most contemporary "Hibernian Magazine" portraits,
this is probably a purely fanciful representation of the subject.
The engraver also provided an incorrect forename for Hopkins.
