EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history during the Civil War. Titled "Ponton sic Bridge on the Appomattox below Petersburg, Point of Rocks, Butlers headquarters" this drawing by renowned artist Alfred R Waud transports us back to the years between 1862 and 1865. Waud's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts the scene before us. The pontoon bridge stretches across the mighty Appomattox River, connecting two vital points in Petersburg. Its construction was crucial for military operations and transportation during this tumultuous time. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly Butler's headquarters at Point of Rocks. This strategic location served as a command center for General Benjamin Butler, who played a pivotal role in various battles throughout the war. Alfred R Waud's reputation as an exceptional artist shines through his depiction of this historical event. His sketches from the American Civil War are highly regarded for their accuracy and ability to capture the essence of those turbulent times. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection, we are reminded of America's resilience and determination during one of its darkest periods. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, art has the power to preserve our collective memory and inspire future generations with its timeless beauty.
