Charge Engaged Knob Orchard Potomac
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment during the Battle of Chattanooga, which took place on November 24, 1863, in Tennessee. The Union Army, led by General George H. Thomas, is seen making a heroic charge towards Orchard Knob, a strategic Confederate position. The engagement was part of the larger Battle of Chattanooga, which saw the armies of the Department of the Cumberland, the Army of the Tennessee, and the Army of the Potomac clash. The scene unfolds with the Union troops advancing up the hill, their flags unfurled and their determination evident on their faces. The Confederate forces, dug in and prepared for battle, can be seen in the background, firing back with determination. The smoke from gunpowder fills the air, adding to the chaos and intensity of the moment. The Battle of Chattanooga was a significant turning point in the American Civil War. After a series of Union defeats, General Ulysses S. Grant was brought in to command the Union forces and turn the tide. The successful charge at Orchard Knob, led by General Thomas, played a crucial role in the Union victory and helped to boost morale and turn the tide of the war. This print, created around 1888, is a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers who fought in this important battle. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the Civil War and the impact that individual actions can have on the course of history.
