The Surrender of General Lee to General Grant, 9 April 1865" is a captivating oil painting by Louis Guillaume that beautifully captures the historic moment when General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse.

The composition focuses on these central figures, with President Edward Simpson and other men in the middle ground bearing witness to this significant moment in American history.
