EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of a Union raid on a Confederate salt factory along the coast of Florida in 1862. The image showcases the destruction caused by the crew of the United States bark "Kingfisher" as they carry out their mission with determination and precision. In this engraving from November 1862, we witness a scene filled with action and chaos. Thick smoke billows from the rebel salt factory's smokestack, evidence of its imminent demise. Men can be seen scurrying around, some operating covered wagons to transport supplies or salvage any remaining goods. The mid-November sky adds an eerie ambiance to this historic event. The coastal setting provides a dramatic backdrop for this significant moment during the American Civil War. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly peaceful locations like Florida's shores, conflict and destruction were prevalent during these tumultuous times. This print is part of The Granger Collection's vast collection, showcasing historical moments captured through engravings like this one. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into America's past and reflect upon the sacrifices made by both sides during one of its most defining conflicts - all while appreciating the artistry involved in preserving these important moments for future generations to admire.
