EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Surrender of General Lee - at Appomattox, C. H. Va. April 9th 1865" is a powerful depiction of one of the most significant moments in American history. Created by Currier & Ives and published in New York around 1873, this print beautifully captures the essence of General Robert E. Lee's surrender during the Civil War. The scene unfolds at Appomattox Court House in Virginia on that fateful day in April 1865. The artist skillfully portrays the solemnity and gravity of the occasion as General Lee stands tall, surrounded by his officers and soldiers who have fought valiantly for their cause. The lithograph showcases remarkable attention to detail, from the expressions on each individual's face to their meticulously rendered uniforms. It transports us back to that historic moment when Confederate forces finally conceded defeat to Union troops led by General Ulysses S. Grant. Currier & Ives' masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and emotion to this poignant image, evoking a sense of both sorrow and relief as an era marked by division draws to a close. As we gaze upon this lithograph today, it serves as a reminder not only of our nation's painful past but also its capacity for healing and reconciliation. It stands as a testament to the resilience and strength that can emerge even from times of great adversity.
