EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a historic moment in American history as General Robert E. Lee, one of the most prominent figures of the Confederacy during the Civil War, meets with renowned German-American cartographer and illustrator, Thomas Nast, in 1870. The photograph, taken nearly a decade after the end of the war, showcases the respect and admiration that Nast held for the Confederate leader. Born in 1807, Robert E. Lee led the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia from 1862 until his surrender at Appomattox Court House in April 1865. Lee's military prowess and unwavering commitment to his cause made him a symbol of the Confederacy and a figure of controversy in the aftermath of the war. Thomas Nast, born in 1840, was a prolific artist, best known for his political cartoons and illustrations. He gained fame during the Civil War for his depictions of the Union cause, earning him the nickname "the father of American political cartoons." Despite his strong Unionist beliefs, Nast developed a deep respect for Lee, whom he saw as a noble adversary. In this meeting, the two men are shown in a cordial exchange, with Lee holding his sword and Nast studying a map spread out between them. The map, a testament to Nast's cartographic skills, may have been a depiction of the battlefields of the Civil War or a proposed solution for post-war reconstruction. The image serves as a reminder of the complexities of the post-Civil War era and the ability of individuals to find common ground despite their differences. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the lives of two influential figures in American history and the intricate tapestry of the nation's past.
