Dead horses can be seen in the background after a battle. It’s not graphic.

There’s an extremely brutal public humiliation and torture scene. When a man goes up to John Hancock and calls him a smuggler, John gets mad and the man goes back into the crowd. The crowd grabs him, strips him of all of his clothes, and covers him in burning hot tar. They then cover him in feathers. It honestly made me feel nauseous just watching it, but it shows how truly brutal life used to be.

A very graphic amputation occurs in episode 3.
A breast is removed in episode 7, but the actual amputation is not shown.
