EDITORS COMMENTS
This litho print depicts the historic moment of Lee's surrender to Grant at Appomattox on 9 April 1865. The artist, Henry Alexander Ogden, beautifully captures the significance and emotion of this pivotal event in American history. The image showcases General Robert E. Lee, representing the Confederate Army, and General Ulysses S. Grant, leading the Union Army, standing face to face amidst a backdrop of soldiers and flags. Their expressions reveal a mix of weariness and resignation as they come together to bring an end to one of the bloodiest conflicts in American history - the American Civil War. The composition exudes a sense of solemnity and gravity as it immortalizes this crucial moment that marked not only the end of a devastating war but also symbolized hope for reunification and healing for a divided nation. This particular print was created by Ogden as an illustration for "History of Our Country" by Edwards Ellis around 1900. It is now part of a private collection but has been made available through Fine Art Finder. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during this tumultuous period in our nation's past. It serves as both a reminder and tribute to those who fought bravely on both sides while offering us an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come since that fateful day at Appomattox Court House.
