EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in American history - the Draft Riots that erupted on Lexington Avenue, New York City, on July 13,1863. The engraving beautifully depicts the chaos and tension that engulfed the city during this turbulent time. The image transports us back to an era of conflict and war - the American Civil War. As we gaze upon this archival piece, we can almost feel the palpable energy of unrest emanating from the streets of New York City. The vertical composition adds to its dramatic impact, emphasizing the heightening tension between opposing factions. Intriguingly, this engraving offers a glimpse into one aspect of civil unrest during this period - opposition to conscription or "the draft". It serves as a stark reminder of how deeply divided society was at that time. The Kean Collection has masterfully preserved this historical artifact for all to appreciate and reflect upon. Through their meticulous attention to detail and commitment to showcasing significant moments in history through art, they have allowed us access to a visual representation of an important chapter in America's past. As we admire this print from Fine Art Storehouse, let it serve as a poignant reminder of our nation's complex journey towards unity and freedom.
