EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the stern and resolute visage of General James Longstreet (1821-1904) of the Confederate Army, as he was likely appearing around 1864 during the American Civil War. Longstreet, a native of Augusta, Georgia, rose through the ranks of the United States Army before resigning in 1861 to join the Confederate States Army. He became a trusted and influential commander under General Robert E. Lee, earning the nickname "Old Pompey" for his strategic prowess on the battlefield. The image, produced as an iln (intaglio line engraving), showcases Longstreet's distinguished military bearing. His piercing gaze and well-groomed beard convey a sense of determination and focus, reflecting the intense focus and resolve required to lead troops in the heat of battle. The general's uniform, adorned with numerous medals and insignia, further underscores his military accomplishments and dedication to the Confederate cause. Longstreet's career during the Civil War was marked by a series of significant victories, including the Battle of Fredericksburg and the Battle of Gettysburg. However, his tactics at Gettysburg, which some believed were overly cautious, led to criticism from some within the Confederate ranks. Despite this, Longstreet continued to serve the Confederacy until its eventual surrender in 1865. After the war, Longstreet returned to civilian life and became a businessman and writer. He later recanted his support for the Confederacy and became a vocal advocate for reconciliation between the North and South. This portrait, with its striking depiction of a pivotal figure in American history, offers a glimpse into the complex and multifaceted life of General James Longstreet.
