Buying Camp Outside Petersburg Selling Tent Virginia Sutler
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in American history during the Civil War. Titled "CIVIL WAR: SUTLERs TENT" the image transports us back to 1864, where we find ourselves amidst the bustling camp of the 2nd Division, 9th Corps in Petersburg, Virginia. In this scene, a large tent stands proudly as it becomes a hub of activity for soldiers and civilians alike. The sutler's tent is depicted as an essential meeting point for troops seeking provisions and comforts from home. A group of men can be seen standing outside the tent, their expressions hinting at anticipation and eagerness. The details within this snapshot are remarkable - from the meticulously groomed beards adorning some faces to the hats worn by others. These visual cues serve as reminders that even amid war, personal style was not forgotten. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, it becomes evident that commerce played a crucial role even on battlefields. The sutler diligently tends to his customers' needs while selling goods that provide solace amidst chaos. Photographed by Granger Art on Demand in New York City (NYC), this print serves as both a testament to our nation's past and a reminder of how ordinary people coped with extraordinary circumstances during one of America's most challenging periods – the Civil War.
