EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Army of the Potomac--The Struggle for the Salient, near Spottsylvania, Virginia" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. Captured on May 12,1864, during the American Civil War, this lithograph by Alfred Rudolph Waud showcases the intensity and chaos of battle. In this scene from Harper's Weekly, we witness soldiers from both the Union and Confederate armies engaged in fierce combat. The image depicts a landscape scarred by trenches and dotted with flags representing each side. The soldiers stand resolute as they confront one another amidst the backdrop of a river flowing nearby. The artist's attention to detail brings forth an atmosphere charged with tension and determination. Each soldier's face tells a story of bravery and sacrifice as they fight for their respective causes. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost that war extracts. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from The Stapleton Collection, we are transported to an era when our nation was divided but united in its struggle for identity. It is through images like these that we can reflect on our past while appreciating how far we have come as a united United States.
