EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "General Grant at Kingston Gap, Tennessee River, 1861-65" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The image showcases the renowned General Ulysses S. Grant during the American Civil War, capturing his presence amidst the turbulent times of war. Formerly attributed to Mathew B. Brady, a prominent photographer of that era, this albumen silver print exudes an air of mystery as its true creator remains unknown. Nevertheless, it stands as a testament to the power of photography in preserving historical moments for future generations. The photo depicts General Grant standing on a paddle steamer gunboat amidst the picturesque Tennessee River. The steamboat's funnels billow smoke into the sky while boats dotting the river add depth and context to this scene from another time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of heritage art housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are transported back to 19th-century America. It serves as a reminder not only of our country's geographical features but also highlights the crucial role water transport played during wartime. Through this photograph, we gain insight into both transportation methods used during that period and General Grant's strategic positioning along key waterways like Kingston Gap. This powerful image encapsulates an important chapter in United States history when war divided our nation yet ultimately shaped its future united identity.
