EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history during the Civil War era. Taken between 1860 and 1865, the image showcases the meticulous craftsmanship of the 50th N. Y. Engineers as they construct gabions and fascines. The drawing, created by renowned American artist Alfred R Waud, depicts this scene on tan paper using pencil. Gabions are cylindrical structures made from woven baskets filled with rocks or earth, while fascines are bundles of sticks used for military fortifications. These essential tools were crucial in providing protection and reinforcement to soldiers on the battlefield. Alfred R Waud's artistic talent shines through in this detailed sketch, showcasing his ability to capture both the technical aspects of construction and the human element involved in such laborious tasks. Known for his exceptional sketches depicting scenes from the American Civil War, Waud's work has become iconic in documenting this pivotal period in our nation's history. Measuring at approximately 10.9 x 22.8 cm. , this particular piece is a testament to Waud's dedication to preserving historical events through artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought bravely during one of America's most challenging times. Quint Lox presents us with an opportunity to appreciate not only Waud's talent but also reflect upon our shared heritage as Americans united by our past struggles and triumphs.
