EDITORS COMMENTS
Going into Action, Battle of Gettysburg, 1863 (engraving) captures the intense and pivotal moment during the American Civil War when Union artillery reserves rush into action on Cemetery Ridge. In this powerful image by Edwin Austin Forbes, we witness the determination and bravery of soldiers as they prepare to engage in one of the bloodiest battles in history. The scene is set against the backdrop of Culps Hill, with smoke billowing from cannons and gunfire filling the air. The horse-drawn gun carriages stand ready to provide support while troops gather ammunition and reinforcements. Every detail in this engraving speaks volumes about the chaos and urgency that surrounded these brave men. The Battle of Gettysburg was a turning point in the war, lasting from July 1st to July 3rd, 1863. It marked a significant victory for Union forces against Confederate troops led by General Robert E. Lee. This print serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifice and valor. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the courage displayed by those who fought for their beliefs on that fateful day. It serves as a testament to both the horrors and heroism experienced during one of America's darkest chapters. This image from Peter Newark Military Pictures allows us to reflect on our nation's past while honoring those who fought selflessly for freedom.
