EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Poster 'Grant from West Point to Appomattox', pub. 1885" takes us on a visual journey through the remarkable career of Hiram Ulysses Grant, an influential figure in American history. The vibrant colour litho showcases nine pivotal moments that shaped Grant's life, highlighting his achievements and contributions. From his graduation at West Point in 1843 to Lee's surrender in 1865, this poster encapsulates the essence of Grant's military prowess and leadership during the tumultuous years of the American Civil War. It also pays homage to significant events such as his time in Mexico during the Battle of Chapultepec in 1847 and his appointment by President Lincoln as Commander-in-Chief in 1864. The image captures General Grant seated with a sense of authority and determination, symbolizing his unwavering commitment to duty. Surrounding him are scenes depicting various aspects of war, including drilling volunteers, signing important documents, and engaging in battles like Fort Donelson, Shiloh, Siege of Vicksburg, and Chattanooga. Through this historical snapshot preserved by Bridgeman Images' Stapleton Collection, we gain insight into one man's extraordinary journey from soldier to general. This artwork serves as a reminder not only of Grant's immense impact on shaping America but also honors all those who fought valiantly during this defining period in our nation's history.
