This engraving, titled "A Mortar Battery, June 1864" takes us back to a pivotal moment in American history - the Civil War. The image showcases the intensity and power of warfare during this tumultuous time. The scene depicts a mortar battery in action, with soldiers diligently operating the heavy artillery. Their uniforms bear witness to their allegiance to America as they fight for their cause. The smoke billowing from the mortars creates an atmosphere of chaos and danger. This print is a testament to the skill and artistry of the American School in capturing historical events through engravings. It was originally published in Harper's Pictorial History of the Civil War, providing readers with a visual narrative of one of America's most significant conflicts.

Its clean lines and sharp details allow us to appreciate every intricate element within the composition. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of the bravery and sacrifice displayed by those who fought on both sides but also of our nation's ability to endure even its darkest moments. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder that history should never be forgotten or taken for granted.
