EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Assault on Fort Sanders" takes us back to a significant moment in American history - the American Civil War. Published by Kurz & Allison in 1891, this color lithograph beautifully captures the intensity and chaos of the battle that took place on November 29th, 1863. The image showcases two opposing forces - Union and Confederate soldiers - engaged in a fierce confrontation at Fort Sanders. The smoke-filled battlefield is filled with flags and standards representing both sides as they fight for their respective causes. In the foreground, we see wounded soldiers lying on the ground, highlighting the brutal reality of war. Amongst these brave men are two notable figures: James Longstreet and Ambrose Burnside. Longstreet was a prominent Confederate general known for his strategic brilliance, while Burnside commanded Union troops during this particular assault. This artwork from The Stapleton Collection serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during one of America's darkest periods. It symbolizes not only the clash between North and South but also represents courage, resilience, and unwavering determination. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images, it is impossible not to feel moved by its portrayal of human suffering amidst conflict. This print invites us to reflect on our shared past while reminding us of the importance of peace and unity in building a better future for all.
